It's Pretty Sad When City Employees Can't Even Care For Their Own Work Place

"Get ready for another influx of Salisbury University students into the community. Today, beginning at 9 a.m., students will gather for the second annual "I Love Salisbury" cleanup day. They will spend today cleaning up public properties in the area, including the Salisbury Zoo and other parks, elementary schools and the Downtown Plaza. The event, organized by the Student Government Association, is designed to make a statement: "I love Salisbury."

So how many jobs can be cut from the City's payroll while these fine volunteers care for the City. The Downtown Plaza, well, I can see that. However, the Zoo and local Parks, unbelievable! It's pitiful, (IMO) that such a group would even have to consider going into the Salisbury Zoo and clean up the mess left behind simply because the Zookeepers, (who sit on their a$$es 1/3 of the day) are too lazy to do their jobs. Joel Hamilton should be ashamed of himself.

In these hard times, the Mayor should consider closing down the Zoo and not dump millions into new buildings and upgrades. They have proven they cannot care for the animals. They have proven they cannot care for the grounds. Yet the Mayor and Council continue to dump millions of dollars into a money pit that is clearly a failure.

This is Salisbury Folks.

There is no supervision in the salisbury government. It's a standard government operation.

Many is wasted throughout this nation why not waist it on an institution that my kids and many others love.

But Joe when you have a bunch of irresponsible people (Comegys, Smith, Shields) sitting on the council like Salisbury does, what do you expect?
