A reader sent an e-mail to us pointing out that she had received a mailer (image above) from Terrie Stagliano that on one side showed a bullet point that stated 'No Conflict of Interest' (as well warrants was spelled wrong - warrents' - this is the 2nd mail piece from Ms. Stagliano with a spelling error).
Well after being shown the January 2008 meeting minutes for Collegeville Borough Council there was and still is a huge conflict of interest and it all has to do with how Ms. Stagliano became Collegeville Borough Council President.
It is in the Collegeville Borough meeting minutes for January 2008 (full page of meeting minutes are above) . Here is the excerpt.
NOMINATIONS FOR COUNCIL PRESIDENT: Mayor Stagliano called for nominations for President of Borough Council. Louise Tulio nominated Teresa Stagliano. Rowan Keenan nominated Chuck Draksler. Mayor Stagliano offered that nominations for Council President be closed.
Mayor Stagliano requested a vote by show of hands for Teresa Stagliano. Voting for Teresa Stagliano were MaryLynn Gaydos, Louise Tulio and Teresa Stagliano. Mayor Stagliano then requested a vote by show of hands for Chuck Draksler. Voting for Chuck Draksler were Rowan Keenan, Tim Mahon and Andrea Baptiste. Both nominations received 3 votes. Mayor Stagliano broke the tie by voting in favor of Teresa Stagliano.
Well if this is not a blatant conflict of interest I am not certain what is! This move caused Chuck Draksler to quit politics after many years of service and was totally disrespectful to him. My only question is where was Chuck Draksler that evening? Was he told to stay away?
