Interesting Information From The E-911 Board Meeting ON Tuesday 15 July

Some questions and comments about that meeting.

How does a person over look $33,000.00 and just accidentally leave it out of the budget as income and then after approval just happen to find it and low and behold it's equal to an expediture the director sans to make.

If the E-911 office has approximately a thousand square feet now do they really need a new building that is 4300 square feet and cost $850,000 to $900,000 dollars to build? I agree they need more space but a million dollar facility that is almost trip in size? This is an example of how priorities need to be established.

Much thanks and appreciation go out to Chiefs Dickey and Collins who challenged the need for such a large and extravagant new building and offered an option in the possibility of simply adding on to the existing building at a far less expense.

Chief Dickey asked, if the new building was built would there be enough money in their income to maintain such a building?  The director after much effort to redirect the question and it being asked several more times finally stated, "no".

Finally a motion was made by Chief Collins and approved by the board to study the cost of an addition at the existing building and to study the cost of a downsized new building.

The last issue raised was the matter of an investigation into the possible inappropriate behavior of the Director and inappropriate relationships at the 911 workplace.

Well you can check with Tim Underwood the attorney in charge of the investigation. I did not make a judgement on the investigation only reported it in order for the people of the county to know what you obviously don't want them to know.

That there's no investigation; that he didn't make a judgement; that he reported the facts; that you don't want people to know the facts? Which is it?

How did anything in that statement lead you to believe that the "intent" of any one's heart had been judged.

This is another example of why Barrett should be elected as commissioner if for no other reason than to piss off the enabler.

Allen most certainly did not lie "on" cg. He thinks it's alright for candidates to conveniently leave out important details about their ethics. Every time he accuses Barrett of attacking one of them, he enables the lie of omission. Lies are lies, and sins are sins. By supporting the candidates he knows to be less than honest, he is willfully enabling their behavior. He refuses to answer to that. He won't say that is what he's doing, but it's as plain as the yellow streak on his back.

The first board of directors that built E911 did a lot of research and spend a lot of time in the development of 911 in this county.It was one of the first 911's to go into operation in a rural county.It was used as a model by many other counties to start their 911.There was a lot of though went into the present building,future expansion was well thought out and planned for.Most people of the city or county don't know where 911 is located or have ever seen the building.If you look at the building you will see that it was designed for future addition.Three sides were covered by brick, the fourth was covered with vinyl so it could be easily removed and addition built on. Same idea with the roof line.The land was cleared at grade with room for addition.Even though went into underground utilities and phone lines to place them far enough from the present building for an addition.Even the underground grounding for antennas and equipment were well placed out of the way.All this was done to reduce cost down the road when expanson was needed.There is no doubt that the time has come,why not take advantage of the planning of past board instead of spending all this money for a fancy new building that want work any better than the present.That money needs to be better spent for the operation of 911 so if you call for help you will get it.Look up some of the old board members ask their thoughts on this building.911 is a very important piece of the puzzle in an emergency.If there is possible inappropiate behavior it should be dealt with at once by the board.

Well, you are right in one aspect 5:41 I am trouble to those who are willing to lie and cheat and steal and treat the taxpayer like an ATM machine. You are wrong about being able to work with other commissioners as I have a long record of getting along with the vast majority, the ones not engaged in abusive behaviors.

10:17 I'd be interested in knowing what heat I may have been feeling? I never changed the subject but I did post a different topic just as I have done over the past number of years. I did not take down a topic so you can continue to post an topics all the way back to the very first one.
As for asking people to vote for only one person instead of three is simply a means of not canceling out your votes.
Unlike you I give the community credit for being intelligent enough to have a discussion without breaking out into a "brawl". Presently citizens in the 7th District especially have absolutely no representation of their ideas and thoughts because they are not allowed to give input. Phone call are not returned and questions are met with blank stares.
When the matter was presented to the Legislative Committee about increasing the city's number of board members on the IDB the question was raised by Commissioner Adams that he did not want to vote on the matter until he had talked with his constituents this was met with this comment from Commissioner Harwell, "I don't see why they wouldn't understand what you were talking about".
If you don't believe that is an accurate quote then go check the video of the minutes. Several commissioners chastised him over that remark but the attitude was already expressed loud and clear.

As for your question, "Do we need him". I will answer yes, now more than ever. When there is a matter that's important to the people either as a whole or individual I am the one many call and asked what to do and how. As a commissioner I will push to not only keep the people informed and involved but provide the leadership needed for the 7th District to actually be represented. Here is an example of the district not being informed by our elected commissioners. Why are the people in the 7th district paying for dead animals to be picked up and disposed of from farms that are already highly subsidized and the price of beef is at record levels? Was the people of the 7th district asked how they felt about this, no but all three commissioners from the 7th district voted to spend over $70,000.00 this year to dispose of a totally unknown number of animals. Is the rest of the county helping to pay for our trash to be removed? are other businesses using taxpayer funds to have their trash removed? The answer is NO, it's the cost of doing business.

E-911 has a history of operating above their income. Expanding the existing building seems a way to contain costs. Another possibility would be to use one of the existing buildings available, such as the

Why don't you stop lying about all this and begin running a clean campaign? I know you won't do that at this point, so I will do what I can to help you on the way to your third and well-deserved defeat.
Exactly which commissioners are engaged in abusive behaviors? Why don't you man up and name them? Oh, and I've heard all about how well you "get along" with the commissioners.
No, you and I would strongly disagree about "do we need him". I think you are a cold and calculating individual that we do NOT need representing us. That's my opinion.
And I'm sure a LOT of people call on you for advice. Who? Are you talking about those in your neighborhood, none of whom have your sign in their yard? Right.
It is not my intention to hurt your feelings, but you set yourself up for these criticisms because of your misbehavior. And I know that you want to be a commissioner about as bad as you ever wanted anything else in life, but...it's not going to happen. It could have had you showed the right spirit and attitude toward those who don't see things as you do. And that alone is reason not to vote for you. You can't go through life (perhaps you can) throwing tantrums when someone disagrees with you.

You are probably right as smart as he is he would have been a commissioner long ago if he would only have been willing to lie and cheat and suck up to the big wheels.

It is not meanness or troublemaking when a politician's record is discussed or their illegal and unethical behavior is exposed.

I suppose that when police offices arrest someone for violating the law it's because they are just being mean and making trouble in your view.

By your words the newspaper is just being mean and making trouble each time they publish a list of names of people that are to appear in court; have been arrested; have a foreclosure; or anything other than to tell what their batting average is but then if their batting average is rather low wouldn't that also be mean to reveal.

It is Barrett who started this war in 7th District and against Mrs. Vanzant. That is not even arguable. Everybody knows it. I just continue to ask that he run a clean campaign and stop trying to hurt those who are running against him. I think it's pure evil.

Mr. Barrett did tell on this blog what tose people did he thought was wrong.

I saw Terry Harwell have a hissy fit on the square. He didn't have enough sense to remember he should try to control his anger out like that instead of cry I'm a county commissione.

Is it true Terry offered to resign as commissione when he got the job in the FD and you, Vanzant and a few others didn't want him to?

I don't think Barrett will get elected because there are to many like you don't like people that wasn't born in Giles county to be elected to anything here. It don't bother me if he donm't get elected because I know he will still try to keep be doing what he has been doing.

Honey bunny I happen to like Giles county and don 't plan to go anywhere. Maybe some day Giles county will get to be a better place for everyone.

Like I SAID, if I errantly stated that I didn't, then I forgot and am willing to say I'm sorry. That's more than I can say for One Shot who has never apologized for the lie he told that I willfully go along with wrongdoings. In fact, he never apologized for the lie he told that Mrs. Goolsby was asked to run by Mrs. Vanzant. I know Mrs. Goolsby, and trust me; she will make an excellent commissioner. She doesn't allow people to tell her what to think and what to do. I can't say that about you two enablers.
Speaking of One Shot, he's asking people to "one shot" him when they vote. I just thought of something. I would bet that those who voted for him during his last two DEFEATS did that very thing. Otherwise, the margin of his defeats would have been much more telling. Am I right about that?

It seems that for at least for a second time Mrs Vanzant has chosen to ignore the unsavory happenings at the E 911 office. While the EEOC and a local attorney continue to investigate. Mrs Vanzant ignores the reports of unacceptable behaviors, sexual harassment and a hostile work place created by the director.
If these charges are proven to be true will the whole matter be swept under the carpet as so much other dirt or will there actually be some penalties for the possible wrongdoing. The E-911 Board has refused to discuss the matter other than to say there is an investigation, but is the investigation timed simply to end after the elections then quietly be dismissed?
