This Tuesday, January 6 will be the first BOCS meeting of the New Year. Traditionally, the Board will decide its vice chair. The position will be held for a year and is currently held by Supervisor John Stirrup. Other annual procedures will involve Chairman Corey Stewart addressing the Board, setting the calendar for the year and adoption of the board’s rules of procedure.
News and Messengers highlights:
Normally, the chair speaks about the progression of the county’s strategic goals, said executive Craig Gerhart on Friday. But Stewart is instead going to focus on “the economy, and showing how the county’s poised to handle the fiscal challenges” that are expected over the next couple years, Gerhart said.
Discussion of strategic goals is part and parcel of the board’s meeting schedule, anyway. Following the consent agenda, supervisors will receive an update on economic development and transportation, as well as human services — key issues that were identified and listed, along with education and public safety, as the core county concerns through 2012.
The strategic goals are important because they form the basis for budget planning for the upcoming years.
One highlight of the afternoon session will be a commendation for Ms. Caroline Custard, principal of Hylton High School for being named 2008 Principal of the Year.
There will be an evening session and the agenda seems full.

Elena,
Using your real name is very liberating, and so was Lafayette. Either of my names I too can be held responsible for. Yes, confining at times too.
Great post above. Unlady like comments, indeed. Maybe, some find hiding behind a moniker quite liberating. As they can show their true colors with the rest of us presumed to be “none the wiser”. We as humans are multi-faceted is one, but “the Seven Faces of Eve” traits is quite another.

Chris, judging from your previous posts over on “dark side” and all of those monikers,before your enlightenment, your last sentence in your comment, sums it up beautifully.
Elena,
The use of multiple monikers by the same person on this site helps drive the comment count up. Sometimes the enlightened ones can’t see what is directly in front of them. I love KG comment about folks on this sight not using their real names.

That’s right, IT. I want to commend you for taking the time with Alamo. I just didn’t have the patience. Glad you did.
I STILL think it helps knowing who you are talking to.
Can we set up profiles on this site? Or would that be a waste of time because everyone wants to use a screen name and not a real name? (I’m the only fool here who does that! LOL)
elite,
Why don’t you use your real name? I guess you don’t want to own your words. Your pointless attempts at attacking me and others is really a reminder of middle school.
Chris/Lafayette. (That’s it here on anti)
elitestliberals,
What’s your point? You and your many monikers are the pot calling the kettle black. Let’s not start on who is who on which blog. Black velvets have multiple monikers (yes I can name a few), newspaper blogs have people using multiple monikers, and people here sometimes use more than one.
Shall we punish the people here and give awards to the black velvets and the newspaper blogs? Is that what you would like? Why pick on kgotthardt from back in March?
I am just trying to figure out the point here. It sounds like this discussion is really over something else. I notice that Chris is jabbed over her ‘enlightenment.’ Care to elaborate?
Mr. Duecaster is not the only questionable conscience on the Task Forces. Mrs. Donna Widawski and her continual accusations is just your basic old alley cat sitting comfortably behind the gates of her gated community stroking her whiskers. When she gets to the gates of hell she will be in the express lane. Known by all for her hatefulness and bald faced lies about others who do not align themselves with HER beliefs. Life is not that simple.
