City hall raises point to Marty Chavez' dishonesty.

Lame duck Mayor Marty Chavez just handed out some pretty big raises, link.

He won't defend them in person. Instead he has trotted out
Chief Administrative Officer Ed Adams.

Adams doesn't want to talk
about the timing of the raises.
Instead, he wants to refocus the
discussion to, whether the raises
were justified or not.

If they are justifiable now,
they were justifiable two weeks ago,
before the election.



Marty Chavez just didn't want to give voters a chance to hold him accountable for the raises, so he didn't bring them up before the election.

Now suddenly, everyone deserves a raise.
