MORE ON FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY at DERA

Hi All

Since my post of December 5 regarding misuse of the public's money and fraudulent activity at DERA, I have been informed that Ms Jill Chettiar, partner of David Cunningham and the DERA board treasurer has moved on from working at Portland Community Services and works now at the NAOMI Project (the free Heroin dispensing and heroin trial centre).

It needs to be noted that Naomi project staff earn $32.00 an hour and yet Ms Chettiar lives in DERA subsidized housing.

Do my readers find this acceptable that someone earning $32.00 an hour should be living in Subsidized Housing when there are so many poor people in desperate need of affordable housing accommodation?

Of course, Ms Chettiar and her hubby, David Cunningham are no strangers to controversy as they by-passed the regular DERA housing wait list in 2004 as a result of Ms Chettiar being the Board Treasurer and Mr. Cunningham being at that time, a salaried employee with DERA.
