Do you remember being a small child in grammar school and the ugly lady in the bright yellow jacket with that squeaky annoying voice would yell out, everyone line up in order and make a straight line? She's Back! OMG, unbelievable! I was attending the Grand Opening of the Neighborhood Services & Code Compliance Headquarters and Police Substation, (I can't wait to call there and listen to someone answer the phone and say that in one breath) while everyone was instructed to line up like good little puppets and listen very carefully while the Mayor did her thing.
DO YOU THINK SHE HAS A CLUE BY NOW THAT SHE'S WEARING THAT YELLOW JACKET AGAIN? Nevertheless, Tom Stevenson did a fantastic job with this project and I was truly impressed. If you've not been there, it's worth a visit to see what good things can be happening far more often once this Mayor is out of Office. It's about building a strong community and working together to make things right. In Barrie's case it's all about the Developers!
It will be so nice answering to Mayor Brenda Colegrove verses Barrie Tilghman. I can see the light people, can you?

The "Yellow Jacket" lives....Beware!
Iyeska,
You're exactly right. I was there to the bitter end yesterday, (mainly because of the free food) and they were desperately calling in the entire Public Works Department because they had too much for and not enough people to eat it.
They could have brought it to the Shelter, (as one Officer wanted to do) but instead felt they should feed their worker bees. Please don't take any credit away from Tom though because he did a fantastic job, seriously.
The mayor gave credit t'Dunn and Comegys for that building?
I don't know what their involvement was fer real, but this ain't the first time she's pounded on the theme o' the wonderful Council "lardership."
Smells like the campaignin' fer spring has long been underway.
