Parks and Recreation truck number 67 was seen again at
McDonald's this past morning, Monday, December 16th, 2013 at about 8:15 AM. This is the same truck that was here last week on Monday. Below is the county employment code from the county's own website. Chapter 13 of the employment code.
Section 13-27: Use of County Vehicles
County vehicles are provided for the use of employees and authorized
volunteers in conducting official business of the County.
Personal use of County
vehicles is prohibited. Certain employees are required or allowed to take a County
vehicle home at night, as they are required to respond to the needs of the County
outside of normal
business hours. Take home vehicles must be approved by the
County Administrator who shall maintain a current record of all authorized take home vehicles.
Operators of County vehicles should practice “
defensive driving” and
anticipate and observe the actions of other drivers and control their own vehicle in
such a manner so as to avoid an accident. Operators of County vehicles and all
passengers therein shall properly use
seat belts at all times. Injury resulting from a failure to wear seat belts may constitute
gross negligence on the part of the individual and upon case review may jeopardize an employee’s eligibility for relief normally provided under the
worker’s compensation or disability claims.
Above is the link to the information so everyone can verify this for themselves. We don't make this stuff up. For 8 months we have been reporting this abuse. For 8 months the abuse continues with nothing being done about it. It would seem fair to say that Brenda Garton, county administrator and Ted Wilmot,
County Attorney are not doing their jobs but are instead failing to do their jobs in protecting the county, the taxpayers and the
Board of Supervisors from waste, fraud and abuse as well as increased costs and expenses as well as increased liabilities. We have filed a complaint form with human resources about this employee who is very clearly in violation of the above policy.
Since it is clear that neither the county administrator nor the county attorney are capable of doing their jobs, they should be termed for cause without any further form of compensation whatsoever. One also has to question the department heads as to why they are unable to properly communicate to their own employees what the policy states and then make sure that the employees maintain this agreement. The above employee driving truck 67 has already been reported and nothing has been done about it. Employees continue to use county vehicles for their own personal use all the time with no regard for employment policies and the county officials are letting them?
