JOE FIBLIONE ASKS MAYORAL CANDIDATE TO VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE CITY CHARTER

On his blog Tuesday night. Mr Fiblione makes requests (actually they are demands) of newly announced Mayoral candidate Stephanie Burke. We find particularly disturbing this following numbered demand of Joe's; as reprinted below:

10)Will you pledge to NOT be the Chair of the Medford School Committee and not take the additional monies?

Hey Joe... we hate to break this news to you but the City Charter actually requires the Mayor to chair the School Committee meetings in the City Charter passed by a majority vote of the residents of Medford. this is the will of the people. It overrides the "won't" Of Joe Fiblione. You demonstrate a shocking lack of knowledge of how the City works. You appear to be totally stumped when it comes to these legal matters.

Perhaps you should consult with an attorney to have it explained to you? We'd suggest you talk to City Councillor Bob Penta; but we understand that he is NOT AN ATTORNEY. maybe that's why he continuously makes the mistake of bringing forth to the Council Agenda resolutions to vote on matters the Council has no jurisdiction over.
