Nice Contract Conehead

In addition to violating our Contracts every-which-way, Conehead is now creating illegal ones, too?

  • The nine-month, $8.6 million contract extension that Mayor Brandon Johnson frantically hammered out with ShotSpotter to give the Chicago Police Department time to transition away from the gunshot detection technology just might be illegal, sources have told the Chicago Sun-Times.

    That’s because the original contract with ShotSpotter's parent company, SoundThinking, was never competitively bid or subject to the city’s normal procurement process, which requires what's called a "request for proposals."

    Because of the way the contract was secured, the city isn’t allowed to extend it at less favorable terms. Instead, the 2018 contract that got the ball rolling on the first of $57.5 million in payments to the company was a “reference” contract, piggybacked onto a similar agreement in Louisville, Kentucky. Reference contracts can be substituted for contract competition only in limited circumstances.

Whoever is giving this dumbass advice, whether political, contractual or legal, really needs to be fired.

Conehead's next mental breakdown is overdue by a few weeks.

Can't be expected to know about contracts when he's got a black wife and black kids to raise as a black man living on the west side.

“Chicago Alderman Brendan Reilly (D-42nd Ward) criticized Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson as "incompetent," after reports that the mayor walked out on an editorial board interview with the Chicago Sun-Times.”

Reilly posted the comments on X, Wednesday morning. "He isn’t addressing crime. His mismanagement of the migrant crisis is inexcusable. He can’t even complete an editorial board interview with the Sun-Times. But, by all means, let’s trust this guy with another $100 million tax hike so he can 'fix more things.'"

“ Developer: Heating costs for Chicago would be 'three to five times more with electricity versus gas'”
Chicagocitywire.com

“Sponsored by Mayor Brandon Johnson and supported by 14 Chicago aldermen, the proposal - which remains pending - would set emissions standards in new buildings to levels that would prohibit fossil fuel combustion.”

“ Chicago gas distributor The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Co. said in an email that the ordinance would "increase costs and risk reliability for everyone, especially during the coldest days of the year," according to an S&P Global Market Intelligence article.”

I know all about our contact being violated. But I do everything in my power to dissuade officers from filing grievances to keep my workload to a minimum. I’ve got other things to do.

You have to wonder how many manila envelopes full of cash were passed out behind the city council chambers? It’s the Chicago way they do whatever they can to have whatever they can. Just like Congress and senate they make a couple hundred thousand dollars a year they go out multi multi millionaires Pelosi is worth $125 million. For example

He's perfectly qualified to be the guy that does whatever this dim-witted mayor tells him to do and say. He's making a ton of money and I believe he went from union painter for the city (a long time ago) to the guy that advises the mayor. If that ain't the "Chicago way" then I don't know what is!

Well the Illinois primary is on March 19th, so your voting recommendations for March 28th really don’t mean much.
