  HOWEVER, you completely ignore the multitude of comments about WHY Bauman was allowed to continue on as City Administrator, in light of the multitude of SERIOUS mistakes he made, and even given hefty raises.

Even if you had a sterling rapport with Bauman weren't you obligated to both acknowledge their concerns and Investigate their complaints? After all, there's a reason why the term 'managing up' was created.
