If people are concern with what is going on in the community they will seek out the information.

Ho...To Rob, you are correct about giving credit. <br /><br />However, the words competent, efficient and organized come to mind, none of which apply to the mayor.<br /><br />It isn't just getting the word out, it is getting it out in a competent, efficient, organzied manner that will also be effective (also not a word that applies to this mayor).<br /><br />I am sure the armory is going to be an expansion of C-Town.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-46510827148974418552011-07-01T23:48:58.634-04:002011-07-01T23:48:58.634-04:00Dan, someone broke into the Rock Ave concession s...Dan, someone broke into the Rock Ave concession stand and ONLY took things belonging to QCBL?

There is no way that the council can consider and deliberate on proposals that have not been presented to us. My constituents, fellow councilors, and I have been ringing this bell for months now, and still have not gotten as single sheet of paper with actual costs, cost projections, or anything. Not a single sheet. My constituents have pretty effectively communicated with me the fact that they do not like last minute rush jobs on items that could have a serious impact on our city. Besides, we were told the state gave the city until June 30 to make a decision. It is July 1. The lack of clarity, competence, and professionalism is glaring.<br /><br />RebeccaRebecca Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14151804728799343506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-73991788032602155412011-07-01T13:16:25.700-04:002011-07-01T13:16:25.700-04:00Sorry Dan...she actually got the notice out...for ...Sorry Dan...she actually got the notice out...for her past performance that's practically a 100% improvement.

We learned they are doing their jobs: how many 'flu vaccines, how many drug arrests, how many fires. Dan Williamson probably outshone most by telling us he would provide information on Muhlenberg, then repeat the same information when Dottie arrived, and he did. Time for questions? Very limited, and most people, including some of the administrators, had fled. But, stay tuned: the Mayor promised she has a plan for the Armory so spectacular that the council members will adopt it immediately at their July meeting.Pat Turner Kavanaughnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-67069763964553952082011-07-01T11:01:40.073-04:002011-07-01T11:01:40.073-04:00I was also quite dismayed at the extremely short n...I was also quite dismayed at the extremely short notice given--I had a previous dinner engagement scheduled, or I would have attended. I don't understand what the problem is in getting the word to residents and stakeholders in a timely fashion--I wish I could attribute it to something else, but my fear is that it is simply incompetence. I hope not.<br /><br />RebeccaRebecca Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14151804728799343506noreply@blogger.com
