Page One Ky Alleges Meyer has Conflict of Interest in Covington

Over at Page One Kentucky, Jake has been digging into Covington Independent School District's 2010 budget and vendor list and found this...


...A $10,584 expenditure to Pike Street Associates, LLC which apparently belongs to Joe Meyer, the Secretary of Education and Workforce Development.

Page One wonders if Meyer is making $10K annually off the Covington school district and if that is "a gigantic conflict of interest for the Governor’s cabinet secretary of Education to be leasing space to a school district that he essentially oversees..."

Then Jake found another expenditure to Joe's wife Dale Meyer for $6,500 in the budget and writes, "There may be nothing illegal going on here but the appearance of impropriety...is a terrible thing for Kentucky."
