EVER WONDER WHY STARK COUNTY HAS AN UNEMPLOYMENT RATE OF 12.1%?

Could Stark County being in the economic doldrums have anything with what the commissioners are dealing with at their weekly meetings these days?

The date for Halloween trick and treaters in Stark County. When is Halloween? Commissioners getting preoccupied with how the county dog warden is dealing with a pack of "reportedly" vicious dogs and one commissioner (Bosley) actually micromanaging the techniques used to deal with the dogs. Why does Stark County have a dog warden?

Wow!

No wonder why Harmon can't get on with his "promised" (when appointed and in his re-election) campaign to work on creating jobs for Stark Countians.

No wonder why Bosley can't make any headway with his "economic development?" biomass project with Chevron.

No wonder why Ferguson can't seem to put his self-described influence with the U.S. Department of Defense to convert the former Doctors Hospital into a Veterans Administration veteran health care facility.

More and more these days, Stark County government seems as if the "Dog Days of Summer" are becoming a yearlong event!

But you can be sure that they will "awaken" and "spring into action" if the Stark Citizens for the Right to Vote get the repeal of the commissioner (Bosley and Harmon) sales/use tax on the ballot.

Can't get economic development and its concomitant of job creation going, but you can always raise taxes. No?
