                       The Corruption

• Colleen Mathis lied by omission on her application to get onto the commission by not disclosing that her husband was a paid staff member of Democrat Nancy Young Wright's campaign when she submitted her application. She admits that this was a mistake, says "she forgot". It is likely that would have disqualified her  from getting on the commission.

•   Destroyed documents which are subject to public records request- this is a violation of open meeting laws. These were the scoring sheets that eliminated three firms from being considered in the award of the mapping consultant contract. All 7 score  cards were shredded and there is an affidavit of that by a witness.  

•  Bid Rigging admitted to by Commissioner Herrera - that he intentionally scored Strategic Telemetry high (all three gave them a perfect score even thought they did not meet the RFP requirements, did not have the experience, and were twice as expensive as any other bid). The  reason given by Commissioner Herrera was that he was afraid that had he not scored them so high, some other company would have gotten the contract.

This is in violation of the open meeting laws that say that decisions must be made in the open so the public can see what is going on.

• The people have gone from paying legislators to draw the lines to paying 9 million dollars to 5 people who are not accountable to the taxpayers.
