[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The mayor is bad but the council isn't doing oversight. Even at the performance oversight hearings they don't ask hard questions or follow up. They should be calling in the heads of dpw, DMV, oag, DDOT, and mpd every month and improving traffic safety and enforcement. They should be calling in mpd and the US attorney every week and figuring out why arrests aren't turning into prosecutions. Then they need to take the info they get and use it to make legislation or budget choices. But most of the council members are not smart enough to do this. They literally can't identify problems, then choose goals, then write bills that would achieve those goals, then pass those bills, then allocate appropriate funding, then monitor implementation. It's embarrassing but I doubt most of them would even be able to lay out that sequence and hope to achieve it.[/quote] +1 You have the DC Department of Buildings Director who was holding down 2 other jobs (1 full-time) and got a slap on the wrist even though she was barely working 1/3 of her required schedule for years. Did DC go after her? No. The amount of waste of tax dollars is mind boggling.[/quote]
