30 Nov 2015 Board of Supervisors' Meeting

Up early this morning with the coffee.  So, I think I'll write something before getting back to the sewing and knitting.

The post before this entry was written before the Thanksgiving holiday.  (Let's Talk Numbers)  Hope it makes you wonder about losses in our other facilities.

The 30 Nov 2015 meeting was poorly attended.  Only a handful of Tunicans showed up and there was no Executive Session.

Again, my Supervisor voted against Payroll and Claims.  The Comptroller had additions to the claims and he verbalized these additions by stating we have a few claims that are about....  I would understand voting against claims in this circumstance but I don't believe this is the reason my Supervisor voted against paying Claims because he always votes against paying Claims.  How is this okay to do this?

After the vote was taken, there was a discussion between Sonny Nickson and Cedric Burnett about the Housing claim.  James Dunn had voted for paying Claims with the exception of the claim for Housing.  Sonny Nickson and McKinley Daley voted for paying all Claims and Burnett voted against paying all Claims.  Nickson asked Burnett why he voted against the Housing claim.  Burnett responded that he had voted against everything without addressing Nickson's question to him.  Why didn't he just answer the question?

So, this was the discussion.  You had to be there to see what I am talking about next.  Burnett has this unkind habit of using his index finger and pointing at other Supervisors when he is talking.  Sort of scolding.  It seems to me that all too many times Tunicans are not questioning Burnett's behavior on too many levels.  Why is that?
