And he has a lot of nerve asking this community to volunteer for his own private venture when he had a hand at kicking so many of our community volunteers to the curb! Guess that's why he was the only one against absolving the pool board recently. Wondered why the sudden turn around but it all makes sense now. I certainly won't be fooled if I see the name 'Gallant' anywhere on the ballot.

The mayor is a policy guy. (Which is why I didn't vote for him....plus being new here at the time, the decoux name meant nothing to me)<br />Policy cannot be made by the people at the lower end of the work pyramid. Policy is made by administrators. So thusly, he has a lot of administrators. <br />My understanding is that he was in education all of his working life. Policy is very important.

Tthe outside workload is behind, judging from the barricades around unfinished sewer, water, road, etc projects, and there is a problem. At the same time the Admin team is fully staffed and huddling around having meetings, meetings and more meetings. Time for a flip around in the number of Admin/support staff in the Hallowed Halls and outside crews. Add to this the low morale and the backed up workload gets even worse. Can't blame the storm/flood for all of this, right Mayor?.
