Consult any modern English textbook.<BR/><BR/>Typos are fat thumbs on a small Blackberry keyboard. <BR/><BR/>Lighten up...blogs are not English classrooms.<BR/><BR/>I heard Ms. Carson on a radio program, where I expect (relatively) clear, concise communication. She voluntarily returned a call to the show's substitute host...she wasn't ambushed. I was waiting to hear her postion on a variety of issues, including this one.<BR/><BR/>The fact is, Ms. Carson too often sounds like she's one-quarter street jive, one-quarter illogical, and one-half asleep. This is not the first time her words were not understandable, and it won't be the last. Sometimes it passes for "cute" or funny. On this issue, it doesn't pass. <BR/><BR/>She said what was reported. Maybe you understand that jibberish, but to most people, it creates a question about her position. The person asking the questions was confused about it, too.<BR/><BR/>Whatever her position on this club, including "no comment," we have the right to understand what she says.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1156028668350930552006-08-19T18:04:00.000-05:002006-08-19T18:04:00.000-05:00Anonymous just wrote : "Which you can't because this poor strteet-educated woman can't string together two coherent English sentences."<BR/><BR/>A sentence fragment containing a spelling error is hardly evidence of a superior education.

That would mean she doesn't favor it, IF you take her at her real word. Which you can't because this poor strteet-educated woman can't string together two coherent English sentences. Some people find that charming. I find it embarrassing.<BR/><BR/>She then said, after being pushed, that she wished Drummer had spent more time airing out the idea. That was fairly coherent. I could sense she was irritated at him for dragging her into this.<BR/><BR/>The "disposed" comment was typical Julia murdering the language. Don't read a lot into it---I'm not sure anyone knows what she really meant.

When Julia was interviewed by channel 13 at the trustee buildling, she said she didn't know what was going on in the building...she comes in and goes up to the 5th floor. Two minutes later she said she comes to work and goes up to the 3 floor.

But NO one in the trustee's office can or does overrule this trustee. <BR/><BR/>Did the idea to have a tavern in the building, have a public hearing?<BR/><BR/>Did the variance applications get mis-filed under the tenant's name, and get re-filed on the day of hearing (A clear MDC violation) in the name of the trustee?<BR/><BR/>Did the public have a right to bid and comment on this tavern idea?<BR/><BR/>Did construction begin and continue without permits?<BR/><BR/>Was the trustee's lawyer used for the variance and/or liquor license applications?<BR/><BR/>And, if so, was the legal time billed to the townhip trustee (Taxpayers)?<BR/><BR/>Wilson, the reception/party answer made sense. But try to answer these questions.<BR/><BR/>And try to think as a taxpayer, not a mouthpiece for the trustee. Put on your taxpayer hat, and ask: if Julia's or Carl's Republican opponent did these things, wouldn't you guys scream from the tallest building?<BR/><BR/>The answer is yes.

You will be required to obtain permits for the work that was constructed without permits and it must pass inspections, or you will have to return the structure and site to its original condition. Keep in mind that<BR/>building codes were adopted for safety reasons. Projects constructed without review and permits can be unsafe, even if they look great. The city's Division of Compliance, Inspection Services wing enforces zoning and building codes on already-built structures that were constructed without required permits."<BR/><BR/>If I went out and started renovating a site for something else and Idid not have the proper permits I would expect the City would come down pretty hard on me.
