Time to shake things up people..

[Valigator]

I spent a good portion of my morning yesterday researching my particular counties emergency management sites...boy what an eye opener...you could wallpaper a warehouse with the PHD.s and resumes...and such....I counted 20 people posted and all their titles..add to that their staff, building etc...and you got a pretty hefty payroll going..they are called BEMA , Broward Emergency Management Assoc...they are the people who are responsible from the county up for calling all the plays when a disaster hits in this county. Now the way I figure it, when heads need to roll, this is where it starts...they are the cities eyes, ears and first response to the Mayor...I am formulating in my head the way to approach these people...I also need to learn a little more about what each does and their responsibilities on the totem pole of the city...Katrina really got me to thinkin..I dont want to be one of those people standin on a flooded street, lookin to the sky for help...the taxes I pay are horrendous and its my duty as a citizen of this county to find out what is what here...and shake things up...basically I wanna put the people whos responsibility it is on notice that we are watchin them...and I wanna know what they are gonna do for me when an emergency shuts down all or part of my city...
