The title of this posting is actually from an article on the web site of Dave Brumfield, our 4th Ward Commissioner. In his latest posting, he discusses the previous efficiency study performed by The Matrix Group, as well as the more recent review of municipal services (and future strategic planning) done by Tischler Bise.
It is always good to learn more about how our elected officials feel regarding the issues facing our community. I suggest you take the time to read it and then feel free to comment on his posting here. Unfortunately, there isn't any mechanism to reply to the posting on his site.

PLEASE NOTE: On Blog-Lebo, we do not publish anonymous comments. You must put your name to your words. Include your full name in the text of your comment (usually at the end), and you’ll be fine. Or post from a Blogger account having a public profile that includes your full name. Either way will work. But if you don’t include your name, or if we have reason to believe the name on your comment isn’t authentic, we will not be able to publish your comment.
Why must I use my full name?
When you post a comment on Blog-Lebo, you are making a public statement. Therefore, we require that you accept responsibility for your words. Just like at a public meeting of the school board or municipal government, when you stand to speak on Blog-Lebo, you must state your full name. That way, everyone will know who is speaking, and you will know that you’re responsible for what you say.
That yellow background is making me see spots.
ReplyDeleteHas Lebo drafted a vision statement? If so, who wrote the vision statement and who supplied the input? I didn't see anything mentioned on his website article.
ReplyDeleteThe mission of the municipal government and the strategy should follow from the vision for our community.
Just last night I suggested one path to our Planning Board.
ReplyDeleteMy "vision" as I characterized it --- is for the Planning Board to complete the 10-Year Comprehensive Plan in the near term and then armed with this knowledge take an active role in not only reviewing, but preparing the 5-Year Capital Improvement Program.
Let's have more community dialogue about the contents of the program and not just make it a "wish" list disguised as a plan.
The implementation of this vision could take several forms, which in itself would generate some good discussion. (sans consultants)
Here's a version that's a little easier to read.
