Looks like Mayor Brown was right: Authority mismanaged

When my wife handed me The Citizen with this headline, she said, "Are you surprised?" What a joke. I remember writing an opinion response almost two years ago regarding the concern that the "new mayor" was going to do "bad things" to the PTC Authority, and specifically, the Tennis Center. Looks like he (Steve Brown) was absolutely correct in his assessment.

The PTC Authority is mismanaged and, I must surmise, "corrupt." The facts are plain to see, if your front page story is anywhere near accurate. Let's support further investigation of ethics violations and financial irresponsibility to provide a full picture for our citizens. This type of "publicity" will not be attractive to the "new business" the PTC Authority was commissioned to attract.
