Why the city broke the law when it procured a redevelopment consultant!

3 Comments 12 March 2009

In response to our breaking story in yesterday’s Journal, a city of Albany commissioner says HE WAS TOLD by a city official that City Manager Alfred Lott’ broke the law when he didn’t solicit bids for a redevelopmet plan consultant because the consultants (an Atlanta law firm partnering with another consultant) were the only people capable of doing the job!

Very, very creative — in a white-collar criminal sort of way.

As always, I invited the city commissioner to encourage Lott to provide an official response to our story. So far, all’s mum.

    Great story on the city manager’s no-bid contract. Will there be any consequences?

    It amazes me what the City Manager continues to get away with while the Mayor & Commissioners sit back doing nothing. Continue to expose this stuff, Kevin, maybe one day the citizens of Dougherty County will get tired of these bozo's & take some action.
