Download Councilwoman Pat McDow and YPA - Ethics Board Referral
It was in May of 2010 that the Yonkers Tribune, tipped off to the many years Yonkers City Council Majority Leader Pat McDow utilized a parking spot to store her unregistered, unlicensed BMW at no cost, requested an accounting of her conduct. An acid-tongued blogger tipped us off. Thank you again. It took months for the Yonkers Parking Authority to reveal in their response that they were unaware of the non-payment for services rendered. The Chairman of the Yonkers Parking Authority is Yonkers Deputy Mayor William “Bill” Regan. Today, January 31, 2011, Yonkers Inspector General Dan Schorr made his finding known. The preeminent ethicist within our borders, deflected the political hot potato to the Yonkers Board of Ethics to relegate final judgment over the matter. I.G. Schorr’s action exemplifies his ineptitude as Yonkers Inspector General. Mr Schorr futher reveals his lack of will and intestinal fortitude to right the wrongs permitted under the Amicone / Regan Administration to which he has become their overpaid “boy.” Mr Schorr earns $200,000 per annum inclusive of benefits.
What is the point of having an Inspector General when all he is seemingly capable of doing is passing the buck onto a volunteer Board of Ethics who have a propensity to hold executive meetings so as to deny access to media. Mr Schorr has not even ascertained how many years of services were rendered and at what cost. The Yonkers Parking Authority is choking under its own debt and the cost to Ms McDow has yet to be revealed to the public.
The conduct of the Office of Yonkers Inspector General Schorr is devoid of any semblance of professionalism or ethical compass demanded by the proud City of Yonkers.
The conduct of I.G. Schorr is deplorable, unconscionable, and dastardly. And to think Mr Schorr believes he is worthy to even contemplate vying for Westchester County District Attorney. His vision for himself is laughable. It is Mr. Schorr who should be tried and judged by the District Attorney for not rendering services for which he is handsomely paid. Shame on everyone involved in this scam upon The People.
Mr Schorr's life experiences and cerebral acumen have yet to impress upon him the difference between right and wrong. He has learned too quickly to conduct his office like a political whore. And that, Mr. Schorr is not good enough for Yonkers. You Sir are a total disappointment.
