CROTON UNITED'S JOEL GINGOLD'S 6/4 LETTER RESPONDS 2 LEO WIEGMAN REGARDING CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON. 

Croton United Member Joel Gingold's June 4, 2015 Letter to the Editor Responds to Leo Wiegman regarding conflicts of interest:

To the Editor,

Oh, come now, Mayor Wiegman. Do you really expect us to believe that there is no looming conflict of interest, or opportunity for you to enhance your personal finances, in your new role as executive director of Sustainable Westchester?

Despite your protests to the contrary, with your recent history of conducting secret negotiations with Something Good in the World, and then lying about it, your falsification of your time records to enable you to force the taxpayers to pay your health insurance premiums, ramming through the Gouveia acquisition without adequate analysis, etc., etc., etc., your credibility in this community is, to be generous, highly suspect.

And you failed to describe how your own company, The Croton Energy Group, fits into this whole picture. You will have to walk a very fine line to keep all of these interests separate, and that certainly hasn’t been your history in the past.

You claim you will recuse yourself from any village board votes in relation to Sustainable Westchester. That gives us very little comfort.

  1. Can you give me the information for how to get out of this program? Or do I have to wait?

  2. They haven't issued an RFP yet. Have faith. How to opt out will be clearly delineated when necessary on Everything Croton--and repeatedly.

  3. Thank you. We've done our homework on these programs and we want OUT. We have no intention of playing these games.
