Commissioner Bender helped us resolve an issue in a very impressive manner. Can’t get my own Commissioner Barry to call me back at all. Wrapping the whole lot of commissioners together is unfair.

You ask why isn't the jail open? Well, have you actually researched what has been happening. It could be safety issues, lack of needed employees, an insurance problem, cost of any lawsuits, various unexpected expenses popping up. Who knows unless you spend the time to look it up. Most people don't want to do the homework, it is much easier to just complain. I also am a county worker and I understand how issues come up, some are easy to fix. Others require robbing Peter to pay Paul. Maybe read the annual budget. Maybe look at requirements on how federal money has to be spent, what is covered and what is not. You can bet they have to account for every penny. To County Worker…..Every department has a budget and there are a thousand things that can happen to change how money is spent.

From a Transit budget meeting, it seemed pretty clear they planned to use the money to close the budget gap. While covid ripped through the ECAT work force, and the bus drivers were told they couldn't even bring their own cleaning products onto the buses to sanitize (since the County wasn't adequately doing it). --Melissa Pino Dear County Worker, saw your comment and just wanted to say that it was actually 10M in covid CARES money that the ATU negotiated to help keep transit workers and their passengers safe.

She came in with people having high hopes but she has shown her true colors since then. Another commenter said there should be term limits- this is an example. Why isn't the new jail open yet? What happened to th 5 MILLION DOLLARS the fed gave ECAT for covid related expenses?? These are just 2 of the several hundred issues. Wake up people. She is a snake in the grass.
