Nelson running for “City Controller” com’on man

I read today that Chuck Nelson, of Erie’s City Council is going to run for City Controller. He states that he is qualified because he was the finance chair for city council. I really don’t think that makes somebody qualified to handle budgetary matters of the city, collect taxes, etc.. It’s ironic that he’s announcing that he’s running for this position after he voted to increase the salary of this position by almost 90% ! To top it off he’s only served one term on city council and I don’t even believe that he is from this area originally ! I certainly hope I’m more qualified. Candidate comes forward that has way more experience.
