Reassign? Incompetence gets rewarded? He needs to be fired! Quit accepting incompetent employees and then moving the problem around. No wonder Augusta can’t keep up with the taxpayers money…
I voted no for the last two SPLOST ballot items. If we don’t give them the money, they can’t waste it on themselves, poorly planned and executed projects, and incompetent directors and managers.
The question that comes to my mind regarding the incompetence of some of these managers of county departments is this. If we are going to pay outside consultants to come in and straighten out these messes, then fire and do not hire department managers. If we, the taxpayers, are going to have to pay outside consultants any way, then don’t hire department managers, hire consultants instead.
I’ve been saying it for years, the Richmond County Commission only hires on race, not on qualifications.
Augusta is wasting tax payers money, all day , every day with bad decisions, poor management, and corruption . From the top to bottom corruption abounds
