Dziedzic won't appeal removal
Citing family obligations and legal expense, Lisa Dziedzic said today she will not appeal her removal as chairman of the Board of Assessors.
the old sheriff of clayton county will probablly run and get elected too.
i believe its true that this is all about power and has nothing to do about performance. you can bet i'll be voting for a new chairman and a new commissioner.
country hicks. But I believe the citizens see straight thru his double talk. We all need to take a stand this time when we vote and make some changes to Lamar County government. Its time to make this a great place to live. (Not so much politics)
Or are you just all hot air without sustenance to back-up your words so bravely spoken under the anonymous label?
Me thinks you just may be the Joker trying to stir the old pot. What say ye Joker man?
Just because "he knows my mama, they went to school together" doesn't mean someone is the right person for the job.
Yeah, I've run into this more than once here.
#1 if the Commissioners did some illegal, please enlighten the public with your information and knowledge of the illegal activities. Put up or shut up!!!
#2 you are either ignorant of the facts or plain stupid. The Board of Assessors of which Ms Dziedzic was Chairman is a quasi-autonomous board under the broad direction of the Department of Revenue in the State of Georgia. The Lamar County Commissioners appoint the members and the appointed members themselves elect their Chairman. Once appointed the Commissioners have no control of their day to day activities. As exercised, the Commissioners can recall a board member for cause; however, the recalled member has appeal rights to Superior Court. Ms. Dziedizic chose not to appeal her recall. Her choice!!!
Mr. Patterson as County Administrator role is limited to consolidation of Board of Assessors budget into the overall budget to be considered by the Lamar County Commissioners. The Chief Appraiser and his or her staff report to the Board of Assessors not to the County Administrator. Mr. Patterson has no control concerning the function of the Board of Assessors or the Chief Appraiser and staff.
On budget matters the County Administrator works with all department heads, both County and Constitutional Department heads. Keep in mind that the Sheriff, Probate Court, Tax Commissioner, et al are elected officials and the County Administrator provides support on budgetary and personnel matters, but is not the final authority on these matters. Very simply, the County Administrator works under the direction of the Lamar County Commission. He does not have any voting or taxing power.
#4 your comments are void of knowledge and intellect. Mr. Patterson spent many years in Clayton County and retired as Director of Public Works. As a Clayton County employee he had no voting power concerning budgets or taxes.
#5 Your comments are those of an ignoramus. I have never heard or heard of Mr. Patterson demeaning any Lamar County citizen. Have you??? If so, come to the Commission meetings and file your complaint, otherwise speak wisely not stupidly.
