TAKING INVENTORY OF DAVE'S 'LEGACY'


Lets get serious or, Are they Serious?    

There comes a time during a campaign when one has to seriously evaluate the opposing candidate and anticipate the issues. I believe we have been doing that all along, but just in case, here goes.
 
     Dave and cohorts have long insisted  that wifi will be the legacy that Dave wants to leave. Now that the wifi is not such a sure thing but more along the lines of a potential financial and practical disaster like the paving issue, we are hearing that,  no, the legacy has already been left. Really? And what was that? Oh, simple. It was the digitizing of UCO records going back decades. Wow! Such a legacy!

    Yes, UCO needed to bring in more techie stuff to help run its affairs but I promise you that digitizing is not such a difficult task. It does take an enormous use of time and patience for one simply has to stand there and feed in page after page to be scanned and when done for the day, upload to the cloud chosen, another name for the data storage system one is going to use. See, it is not rocket science. However, there are issues with this massive use of time.

     Did the president himself scan in all the info? Is that why he was always working late and on weekends or were there other reasons for keeping those hours? Did the current exposed NSA attitudes become too engrained in Dave? And why did the president of UCO, who had many other things to do, take up so much time taking care of this project. It is really a more secretarial/support staff job. Additionally, what happened to some of the records for certain years that appear to have gone missing and why were the hard copies destroyed. They represented our history here in the Village, notes, memos, minutes, etc. Who gave him permission to do this or, as usual, was it a unilateral decision on his part?

 And finally, why are some officers of UCO blocked from tapping into this cloud? Why do they not have the program and/or the password to gain entry?

     So exactly what has Dave done with his almost four years in his office. Danged if I know!

Vote for Esther, get the Bums out and return our Village to the Residents
