MR. SPINELLO SAYS HE DOESN’T LIKE THE WAY THE MAYOR IS RUNNING THE CITY. But the truth is, his voting record as Councilman tells a different story. He’s voted exactly the same way as Mayor Suozzi
97.1% of the time on all city business, because HE KNOWS THE MAYOR IS DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR GLEN COVE.
Mr. Spinello acknowledges Mayor Suozzi’s experience and leadership, by voting YES 97.1% of the time on important City business 2013 Budget • Borrowing for Capital Improvements • Borrowing for Police retirements • Borrowing for Revenue Anticipation Note (RAN) Land purchase • Zoning change • PBA Contract • Full-time hires • Promotions • Contracts with attorneys, engineers, assessors, consultants Sea Faire Waterfront Festival • Letter of Agreement with Waterfront Developers
Thank you, Mr. Spinello, 97.1% for your VoteS of Confidence. ON TUES, NOV 5 - WE’LL BE VOTING FOR MAYOR SUOZZI, TOO!
Of course, he didn’t always agree with the Mayor: Mr. Spinello turned down an $848,000 reimbursement from the Department of Transportation! He refused to use $1,876,000 in Federal Funds awarded to the City! He failed to support two budget transfers, a critical tool that helps control City expenses!
