Mayor Kuhle: Can We Have A Direct Answer?

Mayor Kuhle has inserted the City of Worthington into #518’s push for a $68,500,000 new high school with this letter being distributed around Worthington. We wrote him this letter three weeks ago for clarification.  He has never responded.

For background information please see here where the Mayor, as employee of Marco company, lists “local school districts” as some of his important business clients on their company web page here.

Then look at page 36 of #518’s vendor ledger for Marco to find the $846,000 amount the district paid to them over the three previous fiscal years.

See Mary Pat McNeil & Jeff Dehler’s St. James Invoice For Campaign Work On Their Bond Referendum!

When Jeff Dehler of Dehler PR,  Lawrence, Indiana (metro Indianapolis), met with the ISD #518 school board to pitch his services, he reference his bond referendum campaign work at St. James ISD several times.  He team members in such school bond campaigns include Mary Pat McNeil of MP&G Marketing Solutions.  Apparently they invoice together and split the money later.  See his Indianapolis address here and his ‘team’ listed on his website here. 

Again, Dehler PR is the company that ISD #518 school board contracted to pay over $40,000 of taxpayer money to try to convince voters to pass this $68,495,000 school bond. 

And you can see the invoice they issued to the the St. James ISD school board here.  Note that the large majority of it was invoiced well after their Election Day.  Please note that we placed the yellow highlighting on the invoice for emphasis and it was not on the original.  Thank you.
