There will be an open m...Can you not read troll...<br /><br />There will be an open meeting on Thursday, January 19, 2017, in the Observatory Science Center auditorium at 7:00 p.m. to address any questions that members of the community have about fire protection in the upper end of Pocahontas County. The Assistant Fire Marshal will be there along with a County Commissioner and officers of the BFD and Cass fire departments. It is a good opportunity to clear up any confusion about this fire or any other issue concerning fire or ambulance response in this end of the county.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3219830581066460352.post-69903219285424960472017-01-11T22:12:55.216-05:002017-01-11T22:12:55.216-05:00hey talking about closed door meetings I understan...hey talking about closed door meetings I understand that there is a meeting scheduled on 1-19-17 at the greenbank science center to hear all about the stand down orders that our buster from BFD has been giving out recently .... now I bet that this meeting is the dream child of dennis egan and this meeting will be set up to shout down any poor luckless soul who dares question the authority of chief varner ....my question is why isn`t this meeting being held at the durbin fire house instead of the science center ???? 10 bucks bet you there will be no questions taken from the floor just like the Jacob meck sell meetings when meck wanted more free county land for his business in greenbank ....I bet all the troops from the chamber of commerce and the lions club will be there because that's how all decent is handled in Pocahontas county ....after all we the people are always perceived as being way to stupid to ever questioned how things are handled or the status quo ...shouldn`t a member of the county commission like the guy who represents that northern end of the county be there ....will it be brought up that it is time for chief varner to resign ?????arbowailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13821217765566230105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3219830581066460352.post-79079426433492610952017-01-11T21:45:05.146-05:002017-01-11T21:45:05.146-05:00with the announcement of nearly a half million dol...with the announcement of nearly a half million dollar short fall in funding a levy or for that matter a new school or plural new schools being built is a moot point and totally out of the question .... I still have not heard a concrete plan based on reality ...like for instance that our enrollment is most likely down to about 800 pupils and getting smaller .... it might be time to start cutting the bloated staffing and the over priced administration costs .... without the forest service monies and other sources that we have depended on these many years it might be time for some new ways of thinking about our problems .....for instance alice irvines job was filled by two new hires plus benefits ....how is that an economic lesson in belt tightening ????maybe this new era can not be over seen by the same old faces such as emory grimes as head of the school board ....we just can not keep doing business in the same old ways by the same old faces ....perhaps our new normal just can`t be solved anymore at closed door masonic lodge and eastern star monthly meetings .... just saying arbowailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13821217765566230105noreply@blogger.com
