The former treasurer was a political operative in every sense of the word and more. Though she did not receive an increase for a number of years neither did other elected officials. She successfully fought for a $40,000 increase (approx $157,000 annually) by arguing that the treasurer’s position was historically paid at the level of the highest paid department head, the Chief of Police. She lied.

Cloud only tempted to get what his predecessor got. Given that he is a financial professional and the former treasurer a Hartford Courant reporter, who could blame him.

Well I guess Mr. Cloud thought he needed another $10,000 in order to NOT notice all the wrangling, creative accounting, and magical thinking that prop up the city's fiscal policies. And he must have assumed that everyone would be asleep at the wheel...or in Brinson's case...just snoozing. Thankfully some people have problems tucking in for the night...

Hartford has nearly a 17% unemployment rate and this fool whats an additional $10k, while property taxes are about to increase to the residential sector. WAFF, Pedro's veto was well deserved, look out for Rjo employment opportunities after January 2012.

Kevin, Point of Information.

Dr. Deutsch was the only councilperson present that voted NO! Cotto voted YES! In addition to voting YES, he tried to justify the raise.
