Remember a few months ago when former Councilmember Straub asked Councilmember Mickey Sandifer what Sandifer's trip was about? And then Sandifer's reply of "none of your business". I mentioned that here, and in a published letter to the Shawnee Dispatch. Sandifer never emailed me with an answer.
Anyway, a request under the open records act was made to the city for copies of Sandifer's expense reports from Jan 1, 2009 to present (as of 4/19/10).
Here is the info. Just keep these numbers in mind when you hear him talk about how concerned he is about certain budget items. Then decide for yourself what his sincerity level is.
March 2009.............................................$2,094.18
Reimbursed by NLC (634.75)
Net Expense to city 1,459.43
November 2009.....................................$2,397.63
March 2010............................................$3,184.55
Remember, on his most recent sojourn to Wash DC his expenses were the highest of any of the city's attendees and he was there the most number of days.
Just something to keep in mind.
