Subject: Chatham County’s future? on the Line

Chatham County,

Chatham County is facing an environmental crisis; Jordan Lake is impaired and
Fracking is likely to be forced on us and the main discussion on the
chatlist is snakes and recycling.  Oh we have those big time! Chatham County
also has a few commissioners that don’t seem to be able to think for
themselves.  Remember the game, “follow the leader”. Even if that leader is
taking Chatham County over a cliff.    Where is the research and hard facts
to backup their decisions of the draft Cary Land Use Map with Chatham County?
  Many areas of this recent map should be up for an intense review.  Wake
up every body, we are in trouble.    ****

Subject: McManus

I had a solicitation from McManus [asking for a donation] sent to my email inbox. It was addressed to me personally, calling me by my first name.

Does anyone know how a candidate gets email addresses?

To unsubscribe you cannot just click on a button, but have to fill out several lines of personal information first.

As with those automated calls around election time, this unsolicited email makes me less likely to endorse a candidate.

Cindy.

Subject: CCS budget reduction suggestions

Mr. Logan sent out the list below of 40 suggestions to reduce the CCS 2012-2013 budget deficit. These were suggested by the district’s senior leadership team, the Budget Advisory Committee, and the Chatham County Association of Educators.  These suggestions will be shared with the board of education at the meeting Monday, March 5.

The CCS staff will estimate the savings from these suggestions this week and present the numbers to the budget advisory committee at the Thursday, March 8, meeting.  The suggestions will then be used to develop scenarios for the BOE to discuss on Monday, March 12.

I have a student in my AP English Language and Composition class who is writing a research paper about Margaret Pollard. The topic is how an elected official has shown courage through a political act.

This student would like to speak with anyone who has worked closely with Ms. Pollard or a family member who can provide insight into this topic. She will need the information by the end of next week (10/13). Please email me directly and I will get you in touch with this student. Thank you for your help.
