Mesquite Council-members and City Management,
Attached to this e-mail, please find an excerpt from the two Collective Bargaining Agreements (Hereafter CBAs) between The City of Mesquite, NV., and Teamsters Local Union No. 14. Each CBA was approved at the August 13, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting. I have again high-lighted potions, which clearly indicate there are specific provisions for The City interacting with, and dealing with its public employees, in regards to employment matters and discipline.
As stated at the August 13 meeting, this now makes 5 CBAs, that have very recently been before Mayor, Council, The City Manager, et al. Consequently, there should be full awareness of the untruthfulness of Al Litman’s multiple claims, that The City has no authority. I’m hopeful, that the attached materials will be recognized by each of you, as showing that The City of Mesquite is not a City where no accommodations exist for dealing with documented instances of unethical/unlawful conduct by public employees.
Instances of misconduct by specifically identified City personnel, have been neglected by The City for nearly ten years now. As I understand it, The City Manager, under the current form of governance The City of Mesquite is using, appears to have ample authority to deal with these long-standing, unaddressed, serious issues. I might suggest that he do so, before the date his resignation takes effect, so that the incoming City Manager isn’t stuck dealing with something that could have, and should have, long ago been resolved.
Thank you,
Adam Leverenz
The problem is Mr. Leverenz, that you are the only one that sees anything wrong with any of the actions that took place due to your breaking the law and ignoring a protective order against you. Yes, the city officials are permitted to take action when they document employees acting outside of the law. But they are not required to just because you continue to insist that actions taken against you were illegal. You have told me yourself that you spoke with several lawyers on this matter and none of them would take your case without a substantial up front payment from you. To me sir, that means they expect for you to lose. If not they would gladly take it on contingency. You broke the law, you had your day in court, you received an extremely light sentence. It is time to get over it and move on with your life. You have already wasted 10 years of your life. Was it really worth it?
