Dear Mayor Burke,
Finally,
Mayor Burke, after all the lame attempts at hiring staff, you finally
got it right, on the eve of the 19th month of your Administration. It's
about time...but it is too little too late.
I want to commend you on the hiring of Neil Osborne to run the diversity department. Mr. Osborne has ALWAYS been cordial to me and to others, and we need a person with an open mind to lead the department. As Mayor I intend to keep Mr. Osborne on board and find a new staff that features qualifications over favoritism.
As
proof of Mr. Osborne's independence there is his comment on a petition
regarding Roy Belson's contract, which was supposed to expire tomorrow,
June 30, 2017:

Reason for signing
Our
future hinges on the leadership of our school system. Thanks, Mr.
Belson for our service. We must invest the time now to find a new
visionary leader.
Mr.
Belson, a public figure, does not like investigations. He has called
me "Piglione" - in writing, he now wants to comply with the Open
Meeting Law in regards to the Radio / TV Cable Advisory Commission only
after my filing of public records requests and an allegation of a
violation (or violations, plural) of the Open Meeting Law, has had no
security at the building when this writer showed up on June 14, 2017 -
twice - anyone could waltz in to the building and waltz out, no security
whatsoever February 10, 2016 as you can see on this mini-documentary
that I taped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Arl4qS_f7A
Then
there's Belson's comment "Joe thinks I hide sexual predators at the
school" (parphrased) when he introduced Krissy Fraser...
Now
let's look at what the public thinks of Roy E Belson - a public that
Mrs. Van der Kloot obviously couldn't twist the arms of to try to bully
them into changing their tune on indefensible Belson and his policies

Belson has got to go. He is too arrogant and disinterested in SERVING the people he works for.

Time
for change Medford. The electorate is energizing and demands
transparency and progress. Cronyism will not be tolerated. Elected
officials beware.

Reason for signing
Belson
has not been forthright with the residents, even when sent public
records requests. Roy Belson bobs and weaves with the help of his
associates, but doesn't give the city what it pays for. P.O. Box for
signature.

Medford
needs change within the administration of the Medford Public
schools.....starting with the superintendent and assistant
superintendent.....

Reason for signing
We need to get started, knowing how long it can take to find a replacement.

Reason for signing
I
believe that we need to be proactive in making sure we have a qualified
candidate in place when Mr. Belson leaves or is asked to leave. I have
had 3 children in the Medford school system and while we have been
pleased overall with the education that our children receive, Mr.
Belsons' actions and in some cases lack of, have not sat well with me
and my wife. It is time for a change and a positive one. Medford has
so much going for it and making this smart and proactive change will
continue to strengthen our community.

Belson needs to go. I wish this petition was to ask for his resignation.

We need a new superintendent!
Very
much interested in seeing this take shape. Somerville just went through
this last year and it was a very community-oriented process with many
meetings. Will Medford do the same? Will the school committee step up
and do it or will it have to come from the citizens like so many other
initiatives in this city?
Thanks very much for starting this.
Thanks very much for starting this.

I am a concerned parent that is not satisfied with the current situation. Its time for new and fresh blood.

Reason for signing
With
a shortage of superintendents available, Forward planning will allow
all effort to be directed into finding the best candidate.
