The Real Facts about Chairman Gerry Connolly …

Gerry Connolly has been Chairman of Fairfax County for the past four years and served a previous eight as a Providence District Supervisor. Chairman Connolly in the past four years has presided over increasing gridlock on our roads, nearly doubling our property taxes and seen a decline in Graduation rates in Fairfax County Public Schools.

In addition to his ineffective leadership, Chairman Connolly has clear appearances of conflict of interests. How can Chairman Connolly be fair when voting or arguing a point when he is beholden to BIG Developers who have given him 1.00 out of every $3.00 he has in his war chest. It comes to a grand total of a little more then $500,000. Under Chairman Connolly’s directions, this Board has approved almost 100% of all high density land use applications. I am proud of my record for adding to traffic congestion and gridlocked intersections." Who do you think that benefited? Chairman Connolly supports the “Tysons Corner Task Force” which is packed with his Developer buddies. Important to note this Task Force is Chaired by an Employee of SAIC where just happens to be Chairman Connolly’s Employer. For those of you who may have missed it, SAIC is notorious corporate polluter whom have been sited several times for falsifying documents by the EPA and has plead guilty in court.

Is this payback for political contributions, makes one think.
