Unreal Hopes and Expections

The Great Malarkey


The Great Malarkey says that they had a great Wi-Fi meeting last Friday. That is not the way it happened. The Report is linked here. What actually happened was the Wi-Fi Consultant ask Mr. Israel to be quiet, so that he could present some facts. Basically what he said was that the 2 Bidders were too small for our Wi-Fi project and we should look for a Mid Level Company.

Also the Great Pooh Bear said, as though this meeting and presentation by the Wi-Fi expert did not occur, that we should pass The Budget and the Wi-Fi and go straight to contract.

However, and with Mr. Israel there is always a “However”, the following items need to be investigated and settled:

With DSL (the cheaper quote) we need a 65 foot high tower. This tower needs to have a 65’ fall down circle, it needs to be approved by the State, the County, the Turnpike Authority and last but not least the Airport. (You see the tower will be in the approach path). All of these promise to be very difficult, with the Airport OK  probably impossible.

If we try to go with the other Bidder, direct wire, then someone has to lay down the special wire (underground), someone (us) has to pay for the supply and installation of the wire. This apparently has not been considered in the bid.

So the Rush to Contract should not even be on the table.


If you have a signed Petition and present to the UCO President, our by laws say it should be acted on expeditiously. The Greatest One says what do you mean by expeditious?**receptive, responsive; immediate, instant, instantaneous, summary; breakneck, breathless, brisk, fast, fleet, fleet-footed, hit-and-run, lightning, rapid, rapid-fire, rattling, snappy, speedy, swift, whirlwind; eager, keen, sharp; apt, clever, quick,quick-witted, ready-witted, sharp-witted, smart 
So the Treasurer's recall is out a Month and still nothing.

Delegates turn Wi-Fi down. Pass the Term Limits.  We can stop this nonsense and foolishness and The Great One trying to make his mark.
 
Vote for Esther.
