I have stated many times that, as Mayor, I would institute a hiring freeze to secure the jobs of current employees and to Cut Spending" by not replacing staff when they retire or resign unless the position is a necessary one. A nurse for our seniors IS A NECESSARY POSITION. We need to hire a city nurse IMMEDIATELY, even if it is a temporary, on call, independent contractor, or other low-cost fill-in nurse until a permanent replacement is hired. Our seniors deserve it. They've never been without one. The acting Mayor had plenty of notice that Pat Seltzer was retiring. We need a city nurse and we need him/her NOW.

Happy Summer everyone.
