Deputy Mayor Carl Malysz, "What hat are you wearing today?"
Tribune, July 2, 2008
1. STREET PAVING:
"Three New Albany streets have been marked for paving, Deputy Mayor Carl Malysz said Tuesday".
2. DETOUR AHEAD FOR DOWNTOWN DRIVERS:
"Closing part of Scribner Drive was suggested on behalf of Mayor Doug England and Deputy Mayor, Carl Malysz".
3. "Carl Malysz, Deputy Mayor and Director of Development said the beautification may take a few months".
Freedom Of Speech would like to say:
To our knowledge, the New Albany City Council has never approved an ordinance to establish the position of Deputy Mayor for the City of New Albany.
Why has the City Attorney never reviewed the Indiana Code to determine the legality of an appointed Deputy Mayor in a position that was never established?
Are the actions and decisions of the New Albany Deputy Mayor Malysz legal?
The taxpayers do not want to pay the bill for any penalties charged because the City of New Albany allowed the Deputy Mayor to perform/function/ in a position that was not established by law.
This is the reason of why we question the legality of our Deputy Mayor:
IC 36-4-9-7 : Ordinance establishing position of deputy mayor:
Sec. 7. The city legislative body may by ordinance establish the position of deputy mayor, who serves as the city executive's deputy. The ordinance must:
(1) provide that the deputy is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the executive, and
(2) set forth all the powers of the deputy, which may not exceed the powers of the executive
See...what happens when you do your homework!
