Thank you, Mr. David Remaley, for confirming that they are truly your comments on my website. I will have you know as an Official of the Borough of Kutztown all of your public statements are a reflection on the Borough, especially the statements involving Borough records such as tapes quoting me at Council Meetings. I expect a complete retraction of your comment on my website of July 10, 2008.
I would like you to know that I do not call people buffoons because they disagree with me I call them buffoons because a buffoon is one that is always clowning and trying to be funny( as per Webster’s New World Dictionary). I am very happy to see that in your comment of July 31, 2008 you align yourself with the buffoons who you now know are cowards and their comments are embarrassing to the Borough. Why don’t you and the elected officials you supported, as a member of the mob, call a Town Hall Meeting, publish financial reports and discuss all Borough Finances especially Hometown Utilicom.
Marinoreport.com is based on Honesty and Integrity and the statements in my short bio are not boasts but facts. Your attempts to dishonor me have no basis or justification. If you have any proof that my statements are not true please make them public. Don’t forget the Borough spent more than $150,000 investigating me when I was the Mayor and they came up with nothing. And also remember I was never cited by Chief Cole for Disorderly Conduct and represented in court by Attorney and Borough Councilman Carl Mantz. I never had 8 witnesses and 15 spectators in court to falsely testify for me and some of them were elected Borough and appointed officials. Speak up Mr. Remaley. There is an old proverb that states “people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones”.
Being you relate to the buffoons please inform them that to agree on legislation that was discussed at Committee Meetings is illegal. It is a Sunshine Law violation. How can all Council Members agree on legislation if only 2 or 3 are present at the Committee Meetings? If they do agree that would constitute a meeting which is a Sunshine Law violation.
Mr. Remaley isn’t it strange that the Mayor and the Borough Council do not respond to www.marinoreport.com?

Marino: You will get a retraction from me when hell freezes over. As far as borough business and comments are concerned, i have only alluded to statements that you made during council meetings that i and many others attended during your so called tenure as Mayor. Those statements are all part of the public record. This is just one more attempt by you to skirt the questions being asked. I will not accept any more of your statements as truth unless they can be verified. While i am at it, take notice of ALL the comments to your blog. I and all the others are in agreement with your statements as being outright lies. You are a phony and a coward, you say your blog is to address borough issues, and yet you take the time to chastise me personally for responding to you by signing my name, and all the anonymous responders as being cowards. That`s a real laugh, coming from the biggest fraidy cat of all. As far as me questioning your ancestry, i do not. I do believe you are directly related to Benito Mussolini, because it just makes sense. You are a spineless little worm looking for a cool spot, well, you will not find it in Kutztown. Do you have the guts to show up at the next council meeting? I will be there, waiting for you. Dave Remaley
What we have here is a failure to communicate".
You are evading the questions asked of you, again?
* Print your proof.
* Prove you are who you say you are.
* Answer the publics questions asked.
* Respond to the claim that the Borough has provided others with information when asked.
* Explain why you did not use the Boroughs website to download the Financial information you claim you cannot get.
* What are your qualifications that make you an authority on Government practices?
Why are you, Mr. Gennaro evading the questions and avoiding proving what you say?
Have you ever heard the term "narcistic"?
It would not surprise me to hear that you have been told this, professionally, more than once.

I took it upon myself and called the Borough and spoke to the Finance Director Russ. I asked how I could get a copy of the Budget, he told me to come in and ask at the front counter, he said I could review it there and if I wanted a printed copy or copies of certain pages I could request them, I would have to pay a copy charge for each page. I asked if the 2007 Audit is available and he said the Auditors are finalizing it and it should be available at the end of July.
Russ also told me that I could go to the Boroughs website and view or download the 2004, 2005, 2006 Audited Financial Reports and the 2008 Budget detail report which is also available.
For any of you doubters or those really interested, here is the web link:

I don't know about you but something here sure does not make sense. The Marino Report has claimed over and over again that "The Borough is hiding information", "They won't give me a copy of the Budget".
All I did was call and I was told what to do. There is one claim that may be correct, The Borough will not give you a copy. You must pay for it if you want to take it with you. If you download it yourself then it is free.
The Marino Report also claims the Borough does not have an Auditor, well the Finance Director told me the Auditor is finalizing the 2007 Audit. So the Borough in fact has an Auditor. Another false claim by The Marino Report.
At this time, everyone should be asking themselves what is the real purpose of Mr. Marino and his constant badgering and dissemination of false information and claims?
I took the time to check out these claims by The Marino Report and I am disgusted in the negativity and constant bad mouthing of our town and elected community leaders. The Marino Report is making this community look like a bunch of country hicks and to slant a quote a former councilman “a most un-agreeable community”.

Mr. Marino, I am wondering why you do not respond to the comments posted on your blog challenging The Marino Report?
It does appear you enjoy instigating but have no answers and you fail to refute statements challenging and answering questions posed to you. Looks like some individuals are answering your questions and providing information to support their response.
I am very confused by your motivation. If you believe in what you are writing, then why are you not showing any backbone to answer your critics and challenge their responses?
Can it be their answers are factual and supported by written documents and fact while your statements are lies and a distortion of the facts?
Copy-Cat continues to paste the same response to each of your listings. You have not answered why this individual was successful in her effort to get information from the Borough and you claim you cannot and no one else can get this information.
Tell me, why you do not respond?

Due to the actions of FORMER MAYOR MARINO the insurance company of the Borough raised the annual premium, doubling the prior years cost. The Borough's insurance rating skyrocketed forcing the Borough to find multiple underwriters.

The statement below is atypical of The Marino Report, generalization!
From The Marino Report - "no mention of the fact that HU loses about $1 million a year"
The finances of the telecommunications system is reported in the monthly financial report. There is no accounting loss of $1million dollars reported, this month, this year, or last year. (Nearly impossible to hide)
It is nearly impossible for an entity, especially a small Government entity, to lose $1 million dollars per year without someone of a higher authority taking notice.
The statement made by The Marino Report again uses the word "about". This clearly indicates that Mr Marino and The Marino Report has once again embarked on a "fishing" expedition for information.
Here is my challenge to Mr Marino and The Marino Report, PRINT YOUR PROOF. PUBLISH THE DOUCMENTS SHOWING A $1million DOLLAR LOSE PER YEAR.
The Marino Report is again in error regarding the 6/17 Minutes. The statements by Marino are exaggerations and twisting of statements.
Mr Marino, why don't you ask Service Electric, Verizon, Comcast, or any other entity to provide you with their customer numbers? HU operates in a competitive world and that world protects its client, The People of The Borough of Kutztown. Providing this information could damage and hinder the business. Common Sense. I know that is not something you are capable of understanding.
You were asked in a previous comment why you have not acknowledged HU and its success in negotiating a deal to serve the APEX complex. I am curious as well, why no acknowledgement?
You were also asked why you do not attend committee or council meetings to ask your questions in a Public Forum, why not?
The answer to the above questions is simple, the physical proof presented to answer your false claims would put you to shame. For now, you keep your distance by writing false information thinking no one will dispute your claims. GUESS AGAIN!
I am the anti-marino reporter and I promise the People of Kutztown that I will make phone calls, gather physical evidence either supporting or disputing The Marino Report. Right now, the information presented on this Blog this past year has been inaccurate and without fact.
From The Marino Report - "Marinoreport.com is based on Honesty and Integrity and the statements in my short bio are not boasts but facts."
The fact of the matter is, the Marino Report is no more factual than Howdy-Doody. Honesty and Integrity and The Marino Report are the same as salt and pepper or night and day, total opposites.
Marino and The Marino Report continues to make claims without the ability to produce facts. For instance, where did Marino come up with $150,000 as the waste of tax payers dollars to fight his inappropriate behavior? The real amount is not disclosed by Mr. Marino and The Marino Report for fear of embarrassment. The amount of legal fees regarding Mayor Marino exceeded $250,000 and again, the proof is in the financial reports produced 2005-2007. Yes, waste of tax-payer monies. Profits from Utility Services used to pay to protect the Borough from this individuals civil rights violations. Not only did the Borough incur legal expense, it also caused the Borough to pay three times the rate for Liability Insurance. The experience rating of the Borough was classified as “High Risk”, due to former Mayor Marino and his inappropriate behavior.
Stick to the fight Mr Remaley, this is only intimidation by Marino and The Marino Report to quiet you down. His threats are idle and without merit.
From The Marino Report –“ Call a Town Hall Meeting, publish financial reports and discuss all Borough Finances especially Hometown Utilicom”.
Mr Marino, there is a Town Hall Meeting every month, it is called “Council Meeting”. There are Town meetings throughout the month for each and every committee meeting that is held, and they are open to the Public, including the Finance and Telecom Meeting.
From The Marino Report – “to agree on legislation that was discussed at Committee Meetings is illegal”.
Mr Marino esq., you are an Attorney correct? You state everything the Borough does is illegal so I would imagine one of your un-substantiated claims is your “Legal Degree”?. Legislation is not voted upon at committee meetings, you know that. The entire Council must be involved for any Legislation to be adopted. The committees work on Borough Business and present the business to The Council.
Oh for the umpteenth time, COMMITTEE MEETINGS ARE PUBLIC MEETINGS.
You need to do better Marino and The Marino Report, you are failing here and your followers are jumping ship.
As far as the Mayor or Council addressing The Marino Report, why? There is nothing here to date that has not been answered over and over and over again.
For the Public, answers to the financial position of the Borough including Hometown Utilicom can be found on the Borough's website and downloaded any time.
