For the service we get here in Las Vegas, Metro higher ups are all overpaid! Add that to the fact that they are using Tax payers funds without the tax payers approval to upgrade their fleet to non-essential SUVs... It is all a tax payers scam and blotted waste!

Pay would never be an issue but Metro just seems to throw money down the drain, example the 5 year old radio system. 5 years, many department across the country are still using the same system for 20 years. Public safety needs to start selecting vendors that stand behind their product. I found that many public safety organization never collect on guarantees or hold vendors accountable.

How about that money is used for all thier screw ups when they have to pay someone for wrongful death payouts and police brutality!!!!!!!If you want more money gillespie, then sell the big new building you just moved into!!!!! You had a surplus 2 yrs ago, what happened to that surplus???? Funny how all that money disappears!!!!!!! Could it be the weapons you bought for mass destruction of buildings to pursue las vegas citizens!!!!
