You haven’t heard much from me on here lately, mostly because I have been busy. For example, this week, in addition to all of the usual meetings, paperwork, e-mail messages, and phone calls, I had the pleasure of meeting with Randy Howell, the Boise Fire Department’s new division chief over Emergency Medical Services. The same day, I sat in on a meeting of the Ada County Fire Chief’s Association. The chiefs are a lively group and the discussion was both entertaining AND informative. <\/p>\n
Tuesday evening, the Fair Board met. The agenda that was covered ranged from fair finances to website designers. Today, my colleagues and I had the pleasure of attending a Boise Metro Chamber luncheon at which Idaho’s U.S. Senator Jim Risch was the speaker. Whether you agree with Jim or not, he is an intelligent, well-informed and engaging speaker. <\/p>\n
I’m now working on a new piece to post on my blog in which I am trying to address all of the misinformation being spread about Les Bois Park, horse racing, and the RFP (Request for Proposals) process. <\/p>\n
One of the highlights of last week was attending a meeting of the Weed, Pest and Mosquito Abatement Advisory Board. The department is utilizing advanced computer technology to track all of their critter-fighting efforts. <\/p>\n
The County has a number of citizen advisory committees. If you have an opinion and want to get involved, serving on one of these committees is a great way to go about it. When we have advisory committee openings, they are posted at www.adaweb.net. My colleagues and I value citizen involvement and input. Please feel free to call me at 287-7001 (direct dial office) or 362-0843 (home) or send e-mail to sharonu@cableone.net .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
