Fairly uneventful meeting, no one was absent….

File 3 has Shawnda Combs presenting her first Economic Development update. From the audio she appears to be a real asset to the county and perhaps the best thing this group has done. Yes, I know, they had  the bar set pretty low but given the poor decisions on the ED front in the past she seems to be far more prepared to handle the issue than the a three that hired her combined.  I hope we as citizens can avoid having one commissioner play lead for her to report to as was the case with the old OGDC fiasco, sure way to ruin a promising start.  Back on topic, she has been very busy, very focused and accept for the often repeated in chamber tendency to refer to “the chamber” without identifying which chamber I thought it was an excellent meeting.  She mentioned a number of projects without specifics.

She has also been busy working on a website with county site data and local information. This is something that has been needed for a very long time. It will be interesting to see if she shows for the next New Paris Chamber meeting on October 26….

File 5 is the Landfill monthly meeting with John Jones. The leachate force main is running behind schedule and it is now hoped to be a winter or spring project.  The previous projected completion date of January 1, 2011 won’t be happening.  This is the line that should by any semblance of a competence be going to Camden.  I have to wonder how long the grant that was approved for Camden is going to be good, the clock should be ticking.

File 7 had Mindy is for the General Funds Financial Update. She failed to give the General Fund Cash Balance.

File 9 has the hiring of a new Senior Imaging Technician. The name is mentioned but I am pretty sure I have the spelling wrong.
