Should have fired this guy in September and negotiated a settlement then. The tepid report by Atty. Silver gave no answers, offered no help on how to proceed and covered his own tracks since Silver approved all the contracts Art signed, including 819 Kox purchase and sales agreement and the main st contracts. The state indicated that programs run by Woods were run competently and professionally (probably why he kept attracting money from different granting agencies).

Art good support from Woods and the mayor, despite his idiotic handling of fantasy town homes, fantasy cheese plant resurrection, fantasy veterans business incubator, fantasy defense contractor jobs. And now, because he knows how to weasel settlements, he was smart enough to make this last as long and loud as possible.

Because Art's thing was never public service. It was all about "[****] you, pay me."
