Quote from David Dise, Director, Montgomery County Department of General Services:
“Every challenge makes the finish of the project that much sweeter and we appreciate that the public does not see those challenges, they just know it is taking longer. Our job is to beat those challenges and overcome them and still focus on delivering a first-class product, which I believe we have done in this case and I believe we do in all the projects that we construct.”
Quote from County Council President Craig Rice:
“We here in Montgomery County are really trying to see things through. We went through some fits and starts and had a tough economy and were really challenged when it came to our budget to make sure we continued on with a lot of these projects,” Rice. “We know how important they are to the community and wanted to make sure we delivered. We are going to see the results of this. You can see from the people that are out here today have really been waiting and wanting it so it is great for us to say we delivered.”
"County Executive Ike Leggett said he likes attending groundbreaking events, but he enjoys ribbon-cutting ceremonies even more."
Let's get this straight... Dise, Rice, Leggett and The Sentinel would have us believe what a GREAT job that Montgomery County is doing building public works' projects... Two old sayings come to mind:
"You can fool some of the people all the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time." Abraham Lincoln
"I was born at night; but, not LAST night!" (Author unknown)
Is there any wonder why polls show that people view politicians with such disdain?
