Board Members Know Who Put Them There
Here at the WBP we had a sneaking suspicion about the Monroe County Water Authority Board Members and how they were named to the posts they now occupy. After all, what would the retired chairman of Rochester Telephone, a retired insurance broker and a McDonald's owner know about water? Each knows where to mail the check.
Every board member has made at least a three figure donation to the Monroe County Republican Committee or Friends of Maggie Brooks Campaign Committee over the past two years.
What about the other Authorities? The WBP searched donation histories for some of the top-level authority members.
Mark Aesch of the Rochester-Genesee Regional Transportation Authority has donated $1,000 to the two aforementioned committees from 2006 to 2007. Steve Hendershott, COO of the RGRTA, has also contributed $1,000 to the committees over the past two years. Robert Frye, CFO, and Harold Carter, VP of Legal Affairs, each made contributions of $600 in 2006.
Beginning to see the pattern?
