From Ed Bowman:
We know now, Via Colbert County employee handbook, how employees are supposed to conduct business in Our Courthouse and the consequences for not obeying those statues/laws or the principles outlined in the handbook. Our question next should be, how do we hold our elected officials accountable for allowing such disobedience to those which are outlined in the handbook! I have you the answer right here!

We encourage anyone who is aware of ethics violations in any county to report them - not only to Montgomery but to the person's supervisor is there is one.

Mo Brooks has a bank vault full of funds at his disposal. What he doesn't have at this point is integrity. We heartily endorse Clayton Hinchman for our Congressional Represenative Republican candidate.
The whole office should be investigated. Find out what exactly our Rev. Commissioner has done for us except raise taxes on everything you own. State auditors not from here should check each department as well as each citizen. Bring your own copy of your deed. Make sure it's mapped correctly.. Then on to check to see if your house is valued correctly. As well as equipment you are being taxed on. Just for peace of mind.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the whole office of Revenue commissioner should be investigated go get your deed and have it checked to make sure they have it correct. Also your home or equipment you are being taxed for.a Montgomery auditor should check also. As for use of county time for elections. If I'm not mistaken l was told it was used for Oswalt himself. As well as computer equipment. Maybe you should ask him if that's true!
