You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
This half a county government building never made any sense. Either it should have been a county government center or not built at all. Talk about trophies to egos and plaques with your names on them.
ReplyDeleteOf course all at the taxpayers expense.
That department should be hidden away. It is useless. The only jobs DCED has created are within their own department. Now they will hide in a corner of the HS building where their insignificance will no longer be under the nose of the executive staff. Just moving the Clue (rather Clueless) pieces around the board.
ReplyDeleteThe employees will get a raise since they no longer have to pay the Panto tax.
ReplyDeleteThis is the older part of the building and makes far more sense than the monstrosity built by Freedberg and Moran. The DCED is part of what was once half of the law library. The DCED never belonged where it is, near Courtroom 1 next to the bullpen. But I don't like it moving to Human Services. It signals to me a move away from human services clients. I would stick them in the Milides building, and would kick out the daily newspapers, who are provided offices for free even though the ET in particular no longer can provide the most basic coverage. We should not be subsidizing newspapers who don't do their job anyway.
ReplyDeleteI agree about moving them to the Militas building. It has been half empty since the county bought it. However, renovations would be costly and Brown is tight with a buck. At least when the Bucks do not go in his cronies' pockets. But the HS building is an odd choice. There is room in the southwest corner of the building, which is presumably where they will go. Their staff is bloated and parking is already at near capacity. It is an odd pairing of county functions. Wasn't there some talk of DCED moving into the Louise Moore farmhouse? That may have been a better move, although the Parks office should be there.
ReplyDeleteThe farmhouse os going to be "educational."
ReplyDeleteWhat does that mean? Sounds like they still have no idea what to do with it.
ReplyDeleteCounty DCED is useless anyway. Who cares where it goes? Bloated department full of consultants who count beans all day long instead of doing anything..something! communities are starving and Diane and her friends eat cake.
ReplyDeleteHear Donchez is looking to hire Diane back into DCED in Bethlehem. That will make Karner look good.
ReplyDeleteIf Donaher goes, good riddance. But don't stop there. Eliminate some other positions like the useless recycling guy.
ReplyDeleteGus the Groundhog to county. He couldn't do much worse than DD. Keep on scratchin'!

ReplyDeleteBernie,
ReplyDeletePeople in human services that are inhumane?! This sect public servants underlings do the city deeds to the public for political parasites?? There services are similar but not like the nue nue nue catch line phrase, failure to do service by diservice , a collective term to say the least because in many cases it takes more than one ACTor to collude and dillude!? Than there is there ever surmounting factor that statistically the locoust will ravage an already Baden land?
patent pending
