It is pretty obvious Imker is working toward another run for office.
He is desperately trying to reinvent himself and escape his history. That cannot be allowed.

Eric Imker said on his Facebook profile, "Eric Imker fyi on salary for each of the four councilmembers.
"It was $12,000 when I took office in 2009.
I voted to cut it in half to help the city budget when the economic downturn hit the country."
Which is false.
The pay was $6000 a year through 2013. He was on the Council under Fleisch that raised it to $12,000 a year.

Look at the 2014 budget on the city website. You see that the mayor and council salaries doubled from 2013.
Put it simply, Imker lied about the salary in 2009.

I guess Imker needs a reminder that when I was mayor he was the one constantly pushing for council to take over WASA.
I opposed it and said we needed to rewrite the charter so that they could not put sewer outside of the city without council approval.
I listed all the problems the city take over, which he ignored.
He seems to be forgetting his history of proposing and supporting tax increases.
I have detailed the history on donhaddix.com
But I do agree we need two new councilmembers.
I do not believe he is running because he has his eyes on being mayor, which would be another disaster.
