Kutztown Borough Elected Officials
or Whoever is in charge at the Borough Hall
MX Energy and other local electricity vendors are all soliciting new subscribers since the rate caps came off. Their rates are all around 10 and 12 cents a KWH. I paid 20.5 cents per KWH on my last bill and paid and 31.5 cents per KWH in my vacant rental apartment. You are exploiting the residents of the Borough to pay for your wild spending and funding Hometown Utilicom which loses about one million dollars a year. The so called independent 2009 Borough Audit in the Kutztonion does not show revenue and expenditures for electricity, water, sewer and HU separately, they are lumped together to deliberately hide the fact that HU loses $1million a year and funds are moved freely between Borough Departments which is a Borough Code violation.
The Audit also shows the annual payment for the $13 million debt is $1,294,365 which is $25,000 a week.
Another fact is HU loses about $1 million a year which is $20,000 a week.
Borough Manager Khalife, who is also the Borough Treasurer, and Frank Caruso who heads HU, cost the Borough about $5,000 a week.
The 2008 and the 2009 Audits in the Kutztonions also show
Revenue charges for services 2008 $12.6 million and 2009 $11.6 million down $1 mill
Expenses water sewer, electric, HU ’08 $7.6 million and 2009 $8.5 million up $900 K
Another interesting fact is
Revenue interest and rents 2008 $67,623 & 2009 $1,286,647 up more than $1.2 mill
It is strange that revenue for 2009 is only $420,000 more than 2008.
Many City, State and Federal Agencies realize they have to cut spending but in Kutztown we do not have to cut spending because we have loyal residents who have put their trust in you and you sure let them down.
If you read the Audit you would realize that whoever put it together does not have a clue as to what is in it. Numbers do not lie but they act funny in Kutztown. I do not expect an answer from any of you because you either do not have an answer or you do not have the courage to answer.

Dear Editor,
As an observer of the disastrous Gulf oil spill I would like to say law makers and environmentalists have forced oil companies into deep water drilling which was an unknown technology that they knew nothing about. The water pressure at 5,000 feet is 312,000 pounds per square foot. Then these same law makers attempted to oversee, regulate and license them. The oil companies had to fend for themselves and the oil spill is the result. President Barack Obama and these same politicians are now blaming British Petroleum when they should be taking charge, standing by, supporting and working with BP to stop the leak and clean up the spill.
President Obama and his cronies should have declared a national emergency and brought in the Navy, with their Seabees, to clean up the mess and assist BP. There is no doubt that BP is responsible for the spill but the President and the Congress should have sent billions of dollars to the businesses and residents of the Gulf Coast as they had done in the Haiti and Chile disasters. BP could have been billed at a later date.
June 10, 2010 Admiral Allen announced he will meet with BP officials June 16, 2010 (56 days after the spill) and President Obama will participate in part of the meeting.
When is President Barack Hussein Obama going to realize he is the Commander in Chief and in charge?
