DISCUSSION: BUDGET CRUNCH HITS CITIZENS "RIGHT TO KNOW" WHAT THE STARK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ARE DOING?
The STARK COUNTY POLITICAL REPORT (The Report) thought it would be good to check out what is going on at the Stark County Board of Commissioners these days.
So The Report when to the board's website to check the minutes of "recent" meetings' minutes.
What a surprise!
The most recent minutes as of today (October 15th) is 7-22-2008.
Undoubtedly, if we asked, we would be told that they simply do not have the personnel to keep up with the task of keeping Stark County citizens informed.
Seems as if chief administrator Mike Hanke really has things in hand at the commissioners' office.
The Report certainly could dig up from The Rep's archives (Hanke's former employer [general manager, no less], pontifications about government's responsibility to help citizens to be informed.
More and more it is looking like Stark County's lead government unit is in a tailspin.
Question: Three months behind on making board minutes available to the public? Does this indicate serious internal administrative problems at the Stark County Board of Commissioners?
