Good Morning Winona Online Democracy

Oh how I feared this issue would come up. Part of me wants to ignore it and hope it will go away but I think it's important that public servants be responsive and not answer with silence.

I did not decide to serve in public office to talk about goofy chairs.

At times during the meeting I had images of Dilbert cartoons dancing in my head.

:-<

The chair problems are something I and the other new Commissioners at the time inherited from the previous Courthouse remodeling plans. The three of us had nothing to do with the decision to spend that much on chairs. Trust me, Marcia Ward (a.k.a. Scrooge) would have had a seizure over spending that much money on chairs.

Still, it's now something I have to deal with so I'll try to explain it. The chairs have been sitting in storage for awhile and now we can get rid of them. We have set a base price to avoid the Middle School furniture sale problem. Hopefully this will put an end to a sad chapter.

Our tax dollars paid for chairs that cost $516.00 each and were not useable?
But the chairs they are going to use cost $135.00?
Do the math. I thought our county board was smarter than that.
