The City Council is choosing to ignore a very serious issue affecting our city.
Since the City Manager was hired 18 months ago, nearly 15 highly valued employees from both city and police departments, have left. That is over 230 YEARS of experience that walked out the door. It appears to be because of the City Manager. The Employee Union is initiating actions and yet the city council is choosing to do nothing which makes the council derelict in it's responsibility of oversight, and supervision of the City Manager.
The Mayor and City Council, being elected to set policies and direct their chosen City Manager, has so far done NOTHING about this grave situation: Therefore,
We demand the Mayor and City Council immediately do the following.
1. Hire an outside firm to conduct a thorough, confidential, indepth, unbiased study of what is going on inside the city, by conducting confidential interviewis of current and recently departed employees. Report their findings and recommendations to Mayor, City Council AND the citizens as well as the local press organizations.
2. Hire an interim city manager so that city business can continue during the investigative process.
3. Put the city manager on administrative leave to insure a that the investigation can be done in a non-threatening environment.
There is a cost to this, but we believe that the abusive and ill advised actions of the City Manager will in the long term be much more expensive for the taxpayers of Mill Creek.

Unfortunately my wife was a victim of this city manager and I saw first hand how upset my wife was everyday about how this city manager was treating the employees. If council and mayor don't get off there ass and do something then they need to go as well.
If the City Manager, Mayor and the City Council are so confident that the organization is being managed appropriately, the employees are being treated fairly and with respect, and the reasons given for the employees leaving is truthful and accurate then an independent investigation would afford an objective opportunity to prove it. If there is nothing to hide it would only seem right and responsible to conduct an investigation and let the facts and findings speak for themselves.
I have personally witnessed the behavior of this woman while waiting for services in the city hall lobby. I was astounded when told my an employee that she was the city manager. If she will act inappropriately in front of customers, I can only imagine how she acts behind closed doors with employees.
I am a citizen and a 24 year city employee. We need a leader we can trust and respect.
Why does this city manager need a full time assistant when no previous city manager has felt the need?

I left the Mill Creek Police Department 18 months shy of a 20 year retirement. It's time time to stop the exodus of employees fleeing Polizotto's It's never to late to save the employees that are stood up to the and the head in the sand City Council, I know

If it turns out that everything is OK then it would restore public confidence in the Council and the City of Mill Creek. If the results of the investigation are a negative, then the Council will be able to act according. If they do not conduct an independent investigation then the public will always be asking the question why?
