The existing conditions are a total disgrace. Someone with business management experience and strong leadership skills needs to be running every department of government!
I agree Jerry & evidently Chuck has never had to deal with the commisioners. Bill can’t get any help with equipment thats not working or hiring of more employees for the dump. They need to stop blaming Bill & stary doing their jobs at helping him with these problems. He is the sanitation manager he is not a miracle worker.
The commission creates ALL of the problems at the Towestring dump. They have never provided the proper amount of funding the Environmental Services department needs to operate proficiently. It seems every time a new set of commissioners is elected, somebody new wants control of that committee.
The leadership position, which Bill Rutherford now holds, has become probably the most political position in the county since Jerry Cross fired Tip Jones for political reasons. Whoever takes that position has to fight the politics more than trying to do the job.
When Tip Jones was let go of that position, He left it with a surplus money and good equipment, he kept it on the up and up.
Thanks
