After allegations surfaced recently accusing ADICA CEO and Downtown Manager Don Buie of taking a kickback from a contractor he was also having a romantic relationship with, there has been said here and a few other sources regarding Buie still being on the job. Yesterday, City Manager Al Lott made Buie still being on the job almost a moot point.
In a memo dated yesterday, Lott stripped Buie of any authority to make unilateral decisions regarding spending. Now, he has to go through Al Lott or the ADICA board. No more checks and no more credit card.
Lott claims that he can not take any kind of “negative actions” without any kind of concrete evidence. By stripping Buie of spending authority, it seems that the City Manager understands that the people of Albany are nervous in regards to Buie and our tax dollars.

Now that we are catching a glimpse of how ADICA truly is run, why doesn’t anyone have the courage to stand up and call a halt to all the spending and secret plans?
