He shouldn't need to dine on anyones dime except his own - he makes well over enough money to support himself and many others. I find it disgusting that he makes that much money. Our CPS bill flies through the roof and this guy is just raking in the bucks. He should be ashamed of himself to accept that much money when so many of us our struggling just to get by. It's one thing to make good money but it's another to use tax payer money to dine out and sleep and such high cost hotels and then take such a huge pay increase. Shame on him.

I'd just rather tell him, "great job" and "keep up the good work" I mean come on. When is enough, ENOUGH?? We not only need to keep CPS in line, we need to check up on VIA and SAWS each six months or so.

Call the finance department of the city of San Antonio and ask to speak to someone who can take a complaint. This department has authority and power that few know of. Mention to the complaint taker the woai troublemakers reports on the crazy meals, booze and party's paid for by taxpayers/ratepayers. And mention how it is impossible to post comments on beneby's blog, an attempt at censorship. It is easy to do and takes about 10 mins.

BG2012 you are so ignorant. CPS is PUBLICLY owned whereas WOAI is PRIVATELY owned. You and I own the company. if they can afford all this spending then they can reduce our rates. Beneby should pay this back. He earns MORE than the President. WTH? if he is so smart he should have known that there is a big difference between PUBLICLY OWNED AND PRIVATELY OWNED. I have worked with either government or non-profits and believe me everybody from the maintenance guy up to the CEO understood that we could not spend money on food and booze for employees. He knew yet he spent our money on his ego-filled parties. who wouldn't look at him with gratitude for an expensive meal but it should have been you and I that received those looks of gratitude-not Beneby.

I noticed the TIP on the bills were well below 15%. Some were below 10%! As a former server, I find this makes me just as angry. They don't mind spending other peoples money for lavish meals and fine dining, but they draw the line on leaving a decent tip?!?! If I were you I would interview the servers that got shortchanged, I bet they have stories to tell! The server probablt has a CPS bill sitting on their table at home! If you are going to live high on the hog, don't cheat your server!

The epitome of WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE! CPS CEO, you should be ashamed of yourself! YOU have brought REPROACH and DISCREDIT to yourself, failed CITY LEADERSHIP and the entire CITY of San Antonio! What happened to being a trusted PUBLIC SERVANT? Pure DISGUSTING!
