Update from Councilman Burney

According to Councilman Rashid Burney, his only role was to forward calls from inspections to the lessee, Jerry Green, and to his knowledge the building owner saw to it that everything was cleared for occupancy at Obama headquarters.

Councilman Burney also says due to his insistence on having tonight's budget meeting televised, it will happen and it will be shown on Channel 74. The budget meeting is 8 p.m. tonight (Wednesday, Sept. 24, 2008) in City Hall Library, 515 Watchung Ave.

Interesing how quickly even Councilman Burney, one of Green's biggest supporters, is distancing himself from Green in this instance. Kind of like how McCain distances himself from his lobbyist cronies.

Burney quick to make a whole lotta space between himself and Green on this one. Is there a lawsuit pending here? Who will be named? Why doesn't the chair of government and local housing know the difference between an inspections employee and a building official? Will Jerry Green go down in flames? Will the Bristol marry Levi? Answers on the next episode of "As Plainfield's Stomach Turns."
