The diversity statement represents one page of a 15-page plan setting down county government goals for the next five years.

A final draft of the strategic plan is still being reviewed by the county.

    Did everyone see how well that worked out for the Secret Service last week?
    The agent could not even get her firearm back in her holster even after the former president was safely inside his protective vehicle and the head of the bureau said the roof the shooter used was too steep to post a guard on!

    Do your jobs as a board, your job is not to social engineer the melanin content or the real and perceived gender of our county employees! Your job is to make our county services run efficiently, economically and reliably! To build good policy around the activities of those positions so they know what to do when they are working. The rest of it will take care of itself through our already established equal opportunity laws. Quit with the virtue signaling and crap policy, DO YOUR JOBS, please!
