  1. Herm was employed by the United Way as the executive director. The United Way board members should not have employed him as Herm's position of City Manager created a conflict of interest. Records obtained by Spotlight PA reveal that in 2014, for instance, the United Way gave $30,000 to the city for a “baseball field sign purchase.” In 2016 and 2021, the charity made two additional donations totaling $60,800 to the city for “general support.” So close was the working relationship that in 2018, the United Way began acting as an “agent for the City of DuBois,” according to financial statements submitted by the charity. Those records said the United Way collected contributions for capital construction and improvements for several baseball fields and related facilities operated by the city. Spotlight PA found a total of $560,503 in contributions to the city were handled by the United Way from 2018 to 2020 — a period when Suplizio reigned over both entities. https://www.spotlightpa.org/statecollege/2023/11/dubois-pennsylvania-herm-suplizio-fraud-corruption-attorney-general/
  2. No fine at all as established by the previous council.
  3. Yes. You can also drive on the sidewalk too. Any police charges will be dismissed! I think there are sidewalks all the way to the Sandy Club.
  4. You can do that. Been doing that for years at various parties along the Clearfield Fireman's parade route.
  5. I do not understand why council thought it was a good idea not to place the Waste Management payments in a city account. The payment of entertainment for community days with cash seemed stupid too. (The solicitor approved of this) Where did the money come from for the annual year end bonuses to highly paid employees???? Is the budget balanced because excess money is being transferred from water/sewage fund? My feelings are that whenever the council needed more revenue they just sent a sewage surcharge/ rate increase to Sandy Township.
  6. Waste management money: As alleged, beginning as early as 2008, Suplizio and Shaffer used the city’s tax identification number to establish secret bank accounts into which they diverted city money, including approximately $60,000 in annual administrative fees from the city’s waste management contract. During the alleged conspiracy, Suplizio and Shaffer made large cash withdrawals from these unaudited accounts, wrote checks to themselves and others, and obtained cashier’s checks with themselves listed as payees—totaling more than $350,000. The defendants also allegedly spent more than $450,000 from the accounts toward payments on Suplizio’s personal credit card, which he used to pay for personal vacations, utility bills for his residence, department store purchases, and jewelry store purchases, among other personal expenses. “Herm Suplizio allegedly funneled city money into secret bank accounts that he and Shaffer controlled and that he could use for his personal benefit, including hundreds of thousands of dollars in personal credit card payments,” United States Attorney Eric G. Olshan said. “Our communities entrust public officials like Suplizio with tremendous authority, and when that trust is violated—as is alleged here—this office and our federal and state law enforcement partners will hold them accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”
  7. DOJ: Former DuBois city manager, fellow city employee accused of stealing city funds Federal authorities say Suplizio and Shaffer face up to 45 years in prison, if convicted, as well as a $1.2 million fine https://wjactv.com/news/local/doj-dubois-clearfield-city-manager-suplizio-theft-charges-investigation-crime-corruption-funds-embezzlement-authorities
  8. Apparently the voters think she is legit. As a write in candidate she secured both ballot positions against the incumbents with over 95% of the vote. Hard to argue with these results.

    Nasuti

    Chris Nasuti will remain Interim City Manager until Jan 2024.
  10. The City's water is fine. Their Pension fund is not so good!
  11. If DuBois had a different solicitor the recommendation would be to fire the city manager without pay.
  12. Sandy Township already file a motion. https://sandytownship.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sandy-Township-Complaint-for-Declaratory-and-Injunctive-Relief-FINAL-w.-exhibits-w.o.-blank-pages-6.1.23.pdf
  13. I have seen the Mayor drive on the sidewalks of the City Park near the Cherry Amphitheater before.
  14. Sounds like he should quit driving. There has been many pedestrian killed by cars being driven on the sidewalk.
  15. Toni should resign ASAP for the good of the community.
  16. It might be time to do a recall vote on the remaining DuBois City elected office holders.
  17. The Supervisor complaining has his head up the City official's butt so far that he can taste the Bud Light he drank at the Sandy Club. He might as well be counted as a City Councilman
  18. Sandy Township in Clearfield County files a complaint, asking court to delay merger with DuBois https://radio.wpsu.org/2023-06-02/sandy-township-clearfield-county-files-complaint-asking-court-delay-merger-dubois
  19. The threats are being made against the people who are determine to digs through the City's corruption garbage to find the truth.
  20. Yet the DuBois Council continues to keep Toni in power. What chumps they are!
  21. They decided in early April to do their fundraiser at the firehouse. The platters were excellent .
  22. The City will need to determine how much money they have left to fund the baseball events after figuring the cost of the criminal defense and pay to the suspended city manager. Maybe they can eliminate the healthcare and deductible payments for the no work council and mayor to fill any budget gaps.
  23. Thank the Sandy Township Municipal Authority customers. They have been bank rolling DuBois for years.
