WHAT HIS COLLEAGUES SAY

-- Kenneth Ma

“The issue can be avoided if the mayor makes a public disclosure. There

are allegations, and I’m not going to jump to conclusions. I’m going to

give him the benefit of the doubt. But from what I have read from the

papers, it seems that Dave Garofalo is stonewalling the press as well as

the public, and I think it looks bad for the council.”

Tom Harman

Councilman

“At this time, it is not the job of the city to [conduct such an

investigation]. This is not a local issue, and this is an issue that will

be answered by an appropriate body. I don’t think it needs local action.”

Shirley Dettloff

Councilwoman

“Some questions have been raised that seem to me would require answers.

Dave in his own interest would want to clear up any questions.”

Dave Sullivan

Councilman

Councilman Ralph Bauer is currently out of town. Council members Peter

Green and Pam Julien did not return phone calls seeking comment.
