The latest from the Kingfish blog.
Insofar as virtually no one reads his blog any longer, I will graciously bring it to a wider audience.
MARK TIME, MARCH
Posted on December 11, 2009 Email This!
The current condition of the Camden County Board Of Commissioners can best be described by an old military command. Mark Time, March is an order given to military men while they are marching from one place to another. For example, if the marchers reach a red light and there is traffic moving across their path of March (sic). It means moving your feet up and down without going anywhere.
In going over some of my old files I find items that still remain undone. For example we still do not have a viable evacuation route. The water and sewer situation remains unresolved. The evacuation of the disabled (without personal transportation) still remains an open question.
The question of accurate assessments of personal property is still left to contractors (who bid to do the job for the lowest price). The fact that this leaves Assessors department to clean up the mess that the contractor leaves evidently is lost on our commissioners.
All these and many other unresolved issues can be disposed of if the parties involved are willing to do so. In some cases it requires difficult, unpopular decisions, however if you are to govern there are times you must do so without concern for your personal popularity.
Sandy Sez:
The files I have been reviewing are in some cases 15 years old; others were from my tenure on the commission (5-6 years old). Upon reviewing recent agenda’s I have to wonder, “are they doing nothing or are they doing everything in the back room?
P.S. clearly changes have to be made. The two commissioners whose terms are up next year have done thing (sic - he meant "have done NOthing") notable during their tenure and clearly should be replaced. Whether the rest of Camden County shares my opinion will become known in due coarse (sic).

“LOOK OUT EVIL DOERS WE ARE WATCHING YOU.”
Jay sez:
Formerly, the slogan was "Look out evil doers we are coming after you."
Diminished expectations?
While I agree with the list of unfinished business, I would hasten to ask for a list of Mr. Feller's proudest accomplishments (if any) during his tenure on the CCBOC.
