No Conflicts Of Interest

By Kleinheider Posted on March 29, 2009 at 5:38 pm

Stephenie Dodson makes the case for her candidacy in the runoff election for Metro Council District 18:

Also, there is absolutely no employment conflict of interest on matters that would be part of my duties as Councilperson. The after-care program I work for is funded by parents. I don’t work for a major institution in this district. It’s not just about recusing yourself from occasional council votes about Belmont; it’s about being able to work effectively on a weekly basis with the university and neighbors about issues like traffic, parking and the Institutional Overlay. These issues affect many neighbors daily. To effectively work with the universities and neighbors, you need a Councilperson who does not have to worry about their employer. I can represent all of us all the time.

    Glad someone is calling LaLonde out on her clear conflict. LaLonde is arrogant and in case you did not know it - she is smart and got Obama elected by her hard work here and in Ohio (just ask her - she will tell you, over and over again).

    I totally agree. LaLonde has no clear answer on this. She is basically running for Belmont University. And shut up about Obama - we all know you got him elected. Let’s move on.
