Kevin,

There is something sad that you are actually driving the Mayor's Office, but I for one have to say Thank You, imagine how bad things would be if you weren't forcing change.

It is interesting that you are almost the predictor of what will happen next at City Hall, doesn't he Mayor have access to the same information you do? Does he not call you and ask what is going to hit him next? Seems like a lot of his embarrasment could be avoided if he talked to you

Like one cop commented on the atv post "I will turn my head". Do not expect me to do my job when you do not support us. The officer said. I think this is becoming the case all the way down to civil service. People will do their jobs within means but they are not willing to put their neck on the line when they receive no support. If you are not in the inner circle it feels like you are gasping for air.

Did the audit commission vote at their meeting today to investigate Kupiec's severance?

This is what you get with a Strong Mayor form of government. I recently moved out of the city. Glad I did. I'm sure there are some decent professionals still working for the city, but in general, it's broken. SKB is a absolute joke. Fire her yesterday. Pedro, hire some qualified people that want to invest their talents in the city. Cut the waste at the middle management level... I could go on and on but I don't expect anything to change.

I am not one for harping on the mayor as much as he is where the buck stops. He has had numerous chances to make change but differed his power to wannabes who had no clue. He looked right in his managers eyes and they blew smoke up his ass. How could he not know what was going on. People like the out going DPW director now with a golf course named after him had no clue to what he was doing now and more down the line will show his ineptness. Strangely he did this magic show for four years and now where will he take this act. Look out here's Kevin

Fellow readers, Kevin,
A friend recently asked, why New haven seems so much better than Hartford even with the violent crime spikes in New Haven. My response was that New Haven has had one Mayor for 20 years. Hartford in roughly the same time frame has had two "strong" mayors, both of which have been embroiled in disastrous appointees, Grand Jury proceedings and indictments Numerous audit concerns. New Haven on the other hand has has one administration for 20 years, within the first 2 terms of office the mayor had his house in order and proceeded to improve the processes and the quality of life and broaden the cities offerings to it's residents. Hartford's mayor's have been consumed with putting out the myriad of fires they have set with incompetent department heads and knee jerk decision making and have not had the time needed to truly improve the quality of life in Hartford or deliver top notch services to the residents. As we have said all too often "Hartford Has .......-----, Hartford Has........ \, Well "IT" what ever "IT" is. From my perspective New Haven has already "GOT IT", were still working on figuring out what "IT" is.....

Kevin, a good place to start is to gauge the performance of the Mayor. Please consider taking a poll,with the understanding that you will furnish the results to the Mayor and Mirabelle for their comment on the results.

Kevin,

Please explain to me how Saundra Kee Borges can still possibly be employed by the City of Hartford? She is a complete imbecile who is nothing but a self-serving, greedy and politically corrupt scumbag. How can Pedro ever be taking seriously when he allows her incompetence to destroy this city? Pedro it is time you realized that you have no business what so ever to be Mayor of Hartford. You have been giving more than enough time to prove you have some common sense. You obviously don't, show some thread of decency and Fire that clueless disgrace SKB!

Pedro Segarra, will be Re-elected Mayor in 2015. He has already begun his campaign to the members,of the Democratic Town Committee.The powers that be, want it this way, So that they can continue to control ,Consulting, Building, Leasing, Hiring ,Contracts etc.This period will go down in Hartford's history, as the biggest pilfering of Hartfords finances.This will lead us to become the next Detroit.The Nine Moronic, Silent, City Councilmen , should all be ashamed, but they are not. They have positioned themselves to the same Greedy, Imbosilic level! The Working Families Party, need's to run a Mayor and six Council Candidates, and hopefully end this insanity!

Kevin, you diminish your credibility when you don't post comments that question your editorial judgment. At newspapers, when writers make mistakes, they have editors who will publish corrections or letters that will take the piss out of them and knock them off their high horse. You are one of many people pushing against Segarra. Taking sole credit makes you look like a doof.

THE CAPITOL CITY MUST MOVE FORWARD. WITH THAT SAID, MAYOR AND ALLIES MUST GO.....NOW. THERE ARE SO MANY HARTFORD RESIDENTS THAT COULD DO THE JOB AND DO IT CORRECTLY. AFTER ALL YOU CAN WALK FROM ONE END OF TOWN TO THE OTHER IN 45 MINUTES. THIS TOUR INCLUDES PASSING THROUGH ALL HARTFORD'S NEIGHORHOODS. WHAT A NICE THOUGHT TO HAVE ALL INVOLVED IN THE MOVEMENT PROCESS....

WOW! WOW!! & WOW!!!

I am speechless, and at the same time, disgusted with the Mayor Segarra Administration. What an embarrassment, you Pedrito are slowly going down. How can you've allowed this woman SKBorges to bring you down so low. You are definitely not a typical Puerto Rican man. Where is that strong characteristics that the Hispanic male have? SKBorges is the reason that you are failing. You are not married to her, so get rid of her as soon as possible, you still have time. You do not want to go down in the History books for not being successful as the First Hispanic Gay Mayor. You might be a great person but not a great leader. Please (Por Favor) safe the City of Hartford Ship from sinking and make us proud of you. We the people of Hartford, who voted for you want you back. Take back our City. Make us happy and prove that yes you can do it. Then you can said "Hartford Has IT"
