Bob's speech was masterful. Not one word was wasted... every word counted... no fluff. It's about time someone in an authority position had the balls to say what he said. Alderman Konkan sat motionless, no applause at the conclusion of the speech. He evidently did not like Sabonjian's honesty and criticism of all the corruption, dishonesty, cronyism and unprofessional crap that has been holding Waukegan down for years. A lot of developers didn't appreciate having to deal with that garbage, I know because I have heard them say so. I for one certainly hope the mayor follows through with a forensic audit. That would set our city more permanently on the right track.
I think half of the audience was in shock at first. They were probably expecting a Mayor Hyde - Durkinista type speech... dripping with praise for all the "dedicated hard working staff".... "accentuate the positive" everything is rosy... it's a 30 year plan bullcrap filled, smiley face on a donkeys ass approach.
