WHY YOUR MONEY WAS TOTALLY WASTED:

The following are quotations from the first court round, held by the Massachusetts Civil Service Commission, their report of June 2, 2011:

  "Mayor Dumas and the ARA Board of Directors acted in bad faith in terminating the Appellants (Milanoski & Ross).  The OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE shows that the action of the Mayor and ARA were a PRETEXT to oust Milanoski unrelated to basic merit principles.   Further, the ARA has FAILED TO SUFFICIENTLY SHOW that there was a lack of funds to justify their termination."

  "Here, the overwhelming evidence shows that the decision to terminate Milanoski and Ross were the result of bad faith by Mayor Dumas and members of the ARA Board of Directors."

  " . . the overwhelming evidence shows that any purported barrier between the Mayor and the ARA was indeed artificial.   Even more troubling, however, is that . . the ARA Board of Directors was fully aware of the Mayor's motivations and, with the Mayor literally watching over them at one meeting, orchestrated an appalling, pre-determined vote to abolish the positions of the Appellants."

  "Rather than fulfilling their fiduciary responsibilities as stewards of the "independent" ARA, they themselves acted in bad faith."

  "The record is brimming with acts that demonstrate the bad faith of Mayor Dumas and the ARA Board of Directors, dating as far back as 2007."

  " . . the Mayor stepped up his efforts against Milanoski by going before the City Council and effectively laying out what he . . as "just cause" reasons to remove Milanoski, even though HE HAD NO AUTHORITY TO DO SO."

  "On page 2 of his speech, the Mayor citied to "a serious pattern of strained, and in some cases broken, relationships between the Executive Director and business owners, local, state, and federal agencies, including elected officials and their staff" WITHOUT EVER PROVIDING A SHRED OF EVIDENCE."

  "Mayor Dumas' public and private efforts to exert political pressure upon the ARA reveal that Mayor Dumas had a predetermined plan that was designed to remove Milanoski from his position at all costs, . . "
