Day 4: Mayday Report

The Mayday Report has been a hot topic of conversation for the last year. In fact the Mayor and his council friends used it during the election to smear the reputation of Mark Piland, his opponent. We wondered, what is in the Mayday Report? We requested it several times through PIR’s and the city dragged its feet to respond each time.

We also were curious, how much did the city spend to do this “Investigation?” Remember, this is our tax-payer dollars at work! Well, the answer is $83,196.79! That is the number from the PIR we filed however we are guessing there could be more charges that we have not been told about.

So what did $83,196.79 get us? Well, you can read it for yourself as we are publishing it here. You can find the invoice for the investigation as well as the Full Mayday Report. In fact the first 23 pages are the most important, the rest is just appendix attachments. It’s amazing how many times they say insufficient/no evidence to each of the issues. It is a good thing that it is not a drinking game or we could miss Christmas.
