Norm!

You been hanging out here all day and didn't tell us this?

Below is a letter to the Fort Worth City Council and Mayor from a CITIZEN. 

Brian Boerner with the City Environmental Management for the City of Fort Worth has taken a job with Chesapeake Energy. ---What a Shock!!!---

He is the same person who has supported the gas drilling industry at every turn in the review of air quality issues. This is another example of there being a conflict of interest within the city.(Revolving Door) There should have been a length of time that someone in his position could not go to work for companies they have regulatory issues or dealings with.

Most reputable companies have requirements for their employees in regards to this issue. The City of Fort Worth, seems to think that isn't important. They are wrong.

Revolving door (noun)
  • an entrance to a large building in which four partitions turn about a central axis.
  •  used to refer to a situation in which the same events or problems recur in a continuous cycle : many patients are trapped in a revolving door of admission, discharge, and readmission.
  • [usu. as adj. ] a place or organization that people tend to enter and leave very quickly : the newsroom became a revolving-door workplace.
  • used to refer to a situation in which someone moves from an influential government position to a position in a private company, or vice versa.

  2. Honesty in advertising would use the following PR catch phrase: Fort Worth--cowboys, culture, and CORRUPTION.
