Urban Logic Payroll: What Employees Earn and What They are Paid are Two Very Different Stories

By: Libi Uremovic| Original Article at Patch.com

State Law requires Contractors associated with government Sewers or Wastewater facilities to maintain and Certified Payroll Records. A Public Records Request of the Payroll Records of Contractors revealed the following information:

1. The City is not Maintaining Proper Records. Payroll was requested of Wildermuth, Utility Partners, and Urban Logic, but only Urban Logic Payroll was released. The City stated in writing that they have no Payroll Records for Wildermuth or Utility Partners.

2. Urban Logic Payroll Records Don’t Match Invoices. Urban Logic Invoices charge the City for Hisam Baqai, Kishen Prathivdi, Kieran McKieran, and Zuzanna Rand. Urban Logic Payroll Records contain only Joseph Janda, Sheldon Vess, and Alfred Ignacio. No matchy-matchy.

3. Kieran McKieran signs the payroll as ‘General Manager’ , not CEO has he proclaimed to Council.

4. Urban Logic Consultants is very generous with their pay, but they are even more generous with their payouts.

The three Employees listed on Urban Logic Payroll all make between $45 – $50/hr. The payroll sheet have two (2) amounts in the Gross Pay. The top number is the actual Gross Pay Earned. The bottom number is he Actual Pay Received.

For example: Pay Period 01/04/2014 to 01/10/2014 for Joseph Janda
Hours Worked: 2
Pay Rate: $45.57
Gross Pay Earned: $91.14
Gross Actually Paid: $2197.14
WITHHOLDINGS
FICA: $161.32
Federal W/H: 134.46
State Taxes: $43.81
Total Withholdings: $339.59
Net Wages Paid: $1,857.55

The week of January 4th through 10th Joseph Janda worked 2 hours and took home $1,857.55. Janda’s FICA withholdings was more than he actually made.

In the Year 2014 three Urban Logic Employees worked a total of 239 hours and 10 hours over time. They earned a total of $11,703.93, but were paid $59,214.94

In the Year 2014 Joseph Janda worked 126 hours and 8 hours over time. He earned $6,288.66, but was paid $30,779.73.

In the Year 2014 Sheldon Vess worked 75 hours and 2 hours over time. He earned $3,846.69, but was paid $16,706.59.

In the Year 2014 Alfred Ignacio worked 35 hours. He earned $1,568.58, but was paid $12,247.00

Kieran McKieran authorized every Payroll Sheet. Kyle Warsinski authorized every Payroll Sheet. Kapanicas and Aylward Approve every Payroll Sheet.

The State Controller regulates basic payroll, but forging FICA and Federal Withholding Taxes are Federal crimes with Federal prison time.

And why does Libi love Federal Felonies?

Because there is no liberal socialist time off for good behavior in the federal system and federal convicts from California are sent to that toilet of a federal prison in Texas.
