  1. What a deplorable group of leaders. All the way back into the Donny Boy days…these people should be ran out of town on the Skally Line. I keep the faith that their day will come.

  2. Another fantastic job of investigative journalism, John.

    Humm….Jeff Schiltz and Johnson Controls. I’ve heard of them before–oh yes, the Duluth School’s Red Plan! Jeff Schiltz promised that the Duluth Schools would save $5.5 million a year (after giving Johnson Controls $80 million…ha ha)! How much did the schools save? Nothing. All lies.

    As usual, Duluth pays a consultant until he/she gets the political answer they want. Pictures are in the DNT about how great they are. Then no one cares what happens afterwards when all the consultants’ numbers of savings are shown to be nothing but made-up BS.

    It is a disgrace for the engineering professions. And a disgrace for all the Duluth politicians that enable these lies. Remember when Johnson Controls got sued for fabricating savings for the steam plant? Johnson Controls was found guilty of engineering fraud (yes, that time someone cared, and yes, engineering fraud is difficult to prove).

    And Duluth keeps hiring the same people over and over.
