When they call to complain, they were sent one of the multiple ones due. Question is why? Who is this happening to? The only thing I know is the taxpayer loses again and Charter is NOT Cheaper as we were sold by Friends of Charter!

Research state and federal mandates. Research the amount of money the state now withholds from the county while still collecting our state taxes. Review the duties and responsibilities of the County Executive and Administrator as well as their work schedules. Their compensation is a bargain compared to private industry.

The last paragraph is interesting. The charter says we are to have a county executive and an administrator. Maybe the charter should be revamped and eliminate one position. Unlike the council and former commissioners which are/were classified as part time positions,(although some put in more than a full work week), the county executive is a paid full time position. Thinking along that line, why do we need both?
