Would you hire someone for the Second time after they were arrested for petit Larceny? That's what the village of Tupper Lake did. They hired him as a full time Driver. Does he have accountablity? To deal with money. He had it when he was a police officer, look what happened there.

Also he drives like a idiot to fire calls in the truck or his personal car. He's also the Chief, he has his hands on all the money at the fire station. Would you trust him? Not only the Fire dept accounts, the pull tab machine money, and the Driver's fund.

We just elected a new mayor is she doing any thing about it? This isn't the first time the fire dept has been ripped off, Calvin's relative Patrick Mclear ripped the dept. off over 50,000 dollars. Calvin's following his foot steps. Hopefully the guys in the dept. are watching what's happening and will put a stop to it. Once sticky fingers always sticky fingers.

Calvin Clark Ripping Off The Tupper Lake Fire Dept. (#5201)



They filed the following rebuttal to the above Rip-Off Report:

Their relationship to the company: Supporter



Rebuttal:

First & foremost I would like to say to whomever wrote this extremely flawed entry: If you are going to submit something of this nature, at least have the common sense to speak & write in proper English. That article sounds like it was written by a two year old. Not to mention the fact that you don't exactly have your story straight.



Being very close to both Calvin Clark & Pat Mc Lear, I can tell you first hand that you are way off the mark. Yes, Calvin did have a previous incident with the Police Department, I will give you that one. However, the money at the Fire Department is checked & double checked by several department members.



No one person has sole access to the money. Each day the driver's fund is checked for discrepencies. Furthermore, Calvin does not have access to the money from the pull tab machine.



As far as the claims you have made against Pat Mc Lear, whatever money he did take from the Fire Department, it was by no means $50,000.00. Please, if you have a problem with the leadership of our Village & our Village Organizations, why don't you attend a monthly Village meeting to address those concerns to someone who may be able to do something about it. Unless of course, you know that you are in a very small minority of people who feel the way you do & are afraid to step forward.



It is obvious to anyone in the Fire Department, or close to those in the department that the Volunteers trust Calvin with their lives. They have elected him to be their Chief. That's right...the Volunteers CHOSE him to lead them! So, you tell me, what does that say about his character? These men risk their lives everytime they respond to a call & they CHOSE to have Calvin as the one leading them into that danger every day.

Respond to this Report!
