Commissioner Candidates

[AcworthDad]

The new board has a feature that allows one to see a person's name change history. the references to Ithy have to do with a history of name changes.

I really am not interested in going back years to watch someone's changes, but this is where the reference comes from.

 

I know exactly how Ithy came about - it was derived from a former id and is used in a demeaning way. That's what I don't like. Those who use it know better.

[D-Dawg]

No conjecture. In her position as the BOC Chairman's assistant she was privy to every email he got.....even if got temporary amnesia about the email when confronted at the BOC meeting Mr Pownall addresses in regards to the attempted back door tax increase.

 

I for one personnally had other "challenges" with Ms Cochran in my contacts with the BOC concerning my suits, during King Jerry's tenure, and during the transition period before she move to the DA office. This included emails deleted from the system, phone calls made to David Austin of which no records show them, and twice when I personnally left a business card with a note for David Austin at the BOC office, but the card, or message never made its way to Mr Austin's desk. I cannot say exactly WHO went out of their way to make sure those messages disappeared, but I can only think of one individual who had a purpose to do so.

 

Beverly Cochran sat in on every BOC Executive Session, all the BOC meetings held behind closed doors before the official meetings, and any/all correspondence to and from the Chairmans's office. She was, and as far as I am concerned, IS, King Jerry's PROTEGE', plain and simple.

 

IF you want to believe otherwise, then fine.....by all means vote for her.

 

If you want King Jerry's presence back on the BOC then go ahead and vote for her.

 

If you want to prune back some more of the Good 'Ole Boy influence on the BOC, then DO NOT vote for her.

 

It is that plain and simple.

 

I find most of these discussions to be absurd. Like saying Cheney and Bush were not a pair either.

 

Or on down the list.

 

For anyone who had to deal with the BOC while King Jerry and Beverly were there in charge, it was very, very evident what was going on and how hard Beverly worked to protect and look after King Jerry and his regime.

 

She was indeed the "Princess", and I am certain would love to come back as a BOC member as the "Queen".

 

And that would take us right back to where we were with King Jerry and the ROBBER BARON MEGA DEVELOPERS having the final say on everything of substance which happens in Paulding.

 

 

Now that was just totally way off in left field somewhere! And way too sad to really be funny! You just proved you have an agenda against Cochran and will go to no end to try to convince people to believe your Alice in Wonderland thoughts.

[D-Dawg]

I suggest you check out how your emails reach the commissioners then.

 

I don't know about now, but Jerry Shearin often responded directly to my emails, usually from his blackberry. Only if he was traveling would Beverly respond to let me know that.

[D-Dawg]

You are kidding right? Now I know you are not but to come right out and say that It is really not nice to take shots at anyone,especially being the owner of this board and having rules in place for others not to do that. If I was a candidate and saw the owner or anyone employed with the company talking bad about someone or saying they wouldn't vote for me because an individual resident of Paulding is,I would not be inclined to come here and advertise or even speak with that company. JMO

 

Excellent reply!

[Maddox]

Yes, Cochran was an EMPLOYEE of the BOC at that time, and for many years before and after this, even worked under Bill Carruth. It doesn't matter if she knew anything about it or not, because she has never been in a decision making position....she was an employee. She did what she was TOLD to do, just like any employee of ANY business. She could not have spoken out about this issue without fear of being fired! If you were at risk of loosing your job, would you speak out?

 

People are trying to read a whole lot more into this issue then needs to be. It really is a non-issue to begin with and is only trying to smear a candidate who is running against someone else they are supporting. And this doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out!

 

But let me explain a little about that email in question. The County was wanting clarification if they needed to run print advertising (at the expense of the County) if the "Millage" rate did not change for that year. The law requires public advertising if the "Millage" rate changes, which it didn't. Again, a mountain was made of a molehill!

Winchester I believe that you are incorrect on this statement,That I have bolded for you, Did you read the e-mail?

What is strange to me is why Cochran will not address these issues in her facebook page, Or maybe even on her web site? I understand if she chooses not to address them here.

[D-Dawg]

The issue of HOW Todd Pownall came into possession of an interoffice email has been glossed over. Makes me wonder what's in this for him. How he became the mouth at that meeting to out the email. Just things that still make me go hmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

hummmmmmmmmmmmmm!

[surepip]

I don't know about now, but Jerry Shearin often responded directly to my emails, usually from his blackberry. Only if he was traveling would Beverly respond to let me know that.

 

Isn't that SPECIAL.

 

And my emails to David Austin during the transistion while Beverly was still there just disappeared. Imagine that!

And the 2 business cards I left in person at the BOC office with a note to call me, both vanished as well. But the Open Records Request I filed on 1 visit did get to David's desk, and the 2nd time I left a card with a note to call me, was when I picked up the information. But no one could find a record of me leaving the cards.

 

You can believe what you want. I know of events that took place at the March 2005 BOC/P&Z meeting, the December 2005 BOC meeting, and the May 2006BOC/P&Z meeting which all pointed to the rules being "bent" in favor of the developer and it was Beverly's desk where some of this instigated and where the rest of it just got "lost". STipulations changed, but not sent to those involved until after deadlines were passed.

 

BOC procedural rules, which Beverly so aptly read at the beginning of each meeting, which were then arbitrarily modified in the middle of the meeting when King Jerry invited a developer to rebut us out of the audience who was NOT on the agenda ?! But how can that be. And we later learned it was all arranged before hand.

 

Nope!

 

If it walks like a duck....talks like a duck.....and smells like a duck......I am betting it is indeed a duck.

Yes i did read it, it was posted here several times. I was also at the meeting when it happened. The only thing that changed were property values, many went down but a few did go up. There was not a change in the millage rate at that time. And only if there is a change in the millage rate does the law require the public notices.

 

Why would she address this issue when she may not have had a part in it? It's all a moot point that was started to smear a candidate in order to help another. She knew this would happen and I have to assume it's her choice not to address it. Call her or ask her yourself if you need to know so bad! She's not going to comment here about it, I've already asked her.

[LPPT]

I just love the insinuation that advertisers are hurting themselves by advertising on the site that supports free speech in this county should pull out.

Could that be a veiled threat that those in power threatened by this site might seek retribution.

Not my fault you burnt your bridges before David took office! Maybe, just maybe, if you hadn't bad mouthed everyone involved in this , time and time again, you might get someone to talk to you! YOU destroyed that by your relentless rants here!! I guess they decided to just see you in court.....some day!

 

Contrary to your belief, they do not have to talk to you. I expect the County Attorney told them not to. If you want to talk to County officials, your attorney must do so at this point. This is just standard procedure for litigation.

 

And if you read the "rules" again, the BOC members reserve the right to make changes as needed to those rules, when needed as they saw fit! I guess they saw fit?

 

Yep, if it walks like a duck? Well everyone knows the rest.

You are WAY off base dude. As soon as David Austin found out I had left the messages, and I resent him the email, we did talk. And have several times since them.

 

I am saying someone misdirected my email, business cards, and phone message into the trash can instead of delivering them to David.

 

Now just who do you think would want to prevent me from meeting with David the month after he took office ?

 

Quack-Quack-Quack

I find your post very amusing to say the least. If I understand what you are attempting to convey is that Beverly Cochran Has worked for the Commissioners for the past twelve years, During, which time we have experienced many tax increases, A airport that we did not want, A building boom that has caused chaos in the school system, which has now resulted in massive layoffs, A lack of a an adequate water supply to attract needed industrial growth, Grid lock on the roads, A tax scheme in 2008, whereas the people of this County were being duped and she should have sat by watched all of this occur, And because she was loyal to her employer, and kept her mouth shut She is now qualified to be one of our commissioners?

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!

I am sure you'll have your chance to ask her at the Republican Meet and Greet on June 19th.

[Beach Bum]

To me, the answers are quite simple. When it comes to politics and a candidates forum here on p.com, we as members get to sit back on our laurels in front of our computers using anonymous screen names and criticize, demean, etc., etc., etc. now who has the advantage here? Words get twisted, some readers cant be satisfied, regardless of what the candidate is offering yet these same readers are the ones who sit back and constantly complain yet they very rarely offer any viable solutions themselves and never would consider running for office themselves (MAYBE they have something to hide, I dont know).

 

I have not a clue which of our political candidates will advertise and post here and which ones will not (and I really don't care because I plan on speaking with every single one of them face to face, upclose and personal); however, I know it is the candidates choice and Im quite sure that whatever their decision will be, they would have put a lot of thought into their decision and weighed the options. Money is tight for most everyone and Im sure the candidates will completely analyze their campaigning strategies and act accordingly.

WOW, I don't know where to start. You forgot to blame the crash of our national financial system also on the BOC!

 

So, let me ask YOU, what was she suppose to do? She has no voting rights on the BOC, she has no right to even speak at the BOC unless asked a direct question. Now what was she suppose to do? Go to the press with confidential documents? Not only she would loose her job but could face criminal charges. GIVE ME A BREAK!

[mevans_70]

Do I sense a definite agenda here? LOL

 

As I asked before - this topic is "Commissioner Candidates". Anyone choose to discuss the 4 candidates running in post 4 and the 2 candidates running in post 2? Those posts make up 2 vote on the board. Beverly is 1 vote on the board. The 3 combined could make decisions - depending on how the voters vote.

3 of 5 is a majority. We still have 2 "good ol boys" in office now - Larry and David.

 

Things that make you go hmmm?

[philyaw]

I am digging, but so far it may be buried. I am planning to ask for an open records request. I will be glad to post what I find.

 

IN the meantime, if she so chooses, Beverly Cochran could come on here and tell her side of the story if she wants to.

 

I do know there was a legal action "threatened" and an out of court settlement reached.

 

Beverly, do you want to comment prior to my open records request ?

I sure hope you do follow through on this and post it if it is true. Voters need to know.

[HiramGirl]

Truer words have not been spoken! plus, his email rants to the new House of Representatives leadership has not helped his cause with anyone inside the Capitol, in the Ag Department or with the new county administration once his email has forwarded to "Jerry's Palace" as he likes to call it.....

You are totally incorrect with the boldfaced comment above.

Both the BOC and we, can indeed discuss the case, and a possible settlement without the attorney's present.

Our attorney cannot meet with them unless their attorney is present.

And I have met with David Austin and discussed the case. But the BOC would not vote to approve a full sit down meeting to possibly work out a settlement, so we proceed on to court, and continue to spend thousands of dollars on the lawyers.

If this was directed at me, you lost me completely.

 

I have never even attempted to communicate with the new House of Representative leadership about anything.

 

I am in contact with the Georgia Department of Agriculture on a weekly basis although with Terry Coleman now gone [he is running for Labor Commissioner] I will not be communication with them as much until probably January when they will get a new commissioner.

 

I am in contact with David Austin and some of the other commissioners by email and phone on a regular bas

 

And I don't miss your buddy EX-Speaker Richardson's presence downtown under the Gold Dome at all. As I understand it, many of his former buddies have "lost" his phone number as well.

[HiramGirl]

That is a lie. You sent a message about the Poultry Expo to where you through around Terry Coleman's name and Abit Massey.

[surepip]

What are you talking about and who got your panties in a wad ?

 

 

I know Terry Coleman well.

I have worked with him on various poultry related projects for the past 2+ years since he has been deputy commissioner of agriculture. I have never had any problems getting his ear. I believe his last day at the Ag Department was last Friday or today. Because he is running for another state wide office he had to resign as deputy commissioner.

 

I have known Abit Massey, the director of the Georgia Poultry Federation for more than 30 years and have worked with him and Mike Giles on many poultry related projects, obtaining grants, keeping funding for the College of Poultry Science in Athens and the Extension Poultry Department alive as well as arranging meetings and working with the various Georgia Poultry Integrators and the GPF. Abit and the GPF is the State, and Federal Lobbyist for the Poultry Industry. He is not a member of the State House or Senate.

I have a specific project for converting current hatchery wastes into high grade animal feed additives which the GPF, the Extension Poultry Department and the Dept of Ag are both interested in pursuing.

 

I have also sponsored both Abit, and Terry as well as Gary Black, one of the current Republican Commissioner of Agriculture candidates to come out to Paulding County to present programs to the Paulding County Rotary Club.

 

I have never had any problems communication with any of these people.

 

I did try several years in a row after our illustrious Mr Richardson became Speaker of the House to get him, and some of his staff to visit the floor of the IPE show in Atlanta the end of January just to visit with some of the exhibitors and to do a little PR with them to let them know how much Georgia appreciates their involvement with the largest poultry equipment/scientific meeting held in the World.

 

Abit and Mike, as well as the Staff of US Poultry & Egg Association located in Stone Mountain, and Mike Lacy the head of the Poultry Extension Department in Athens worked hand in hand with me in trying to accomplish this. Kind of just a half day PR tour of the IPE to lend a little state support to the largest ag [and other] industry in the State of Georgia. We do account for more than 50% of the total ag GDP in this state.

 

Unfortunately we were never able to get Mr Richardson to take that long trip from the Gold Dome to the World Congress Center to do this.

Yes, it does make the board a bit more interesting. And just think, we have 2 months for the primaries, and then another 3 months for the general election.

 

I am still somewhat at a loss of what old Hiram Girl is/was getting at. Am I mistaken, or do we only see her at election times ?

[HiramGirl]

Which is it? You are speaking out of both sides of your mouth. You say you have not sent anything to the new House leadership yet you have.

[surepip]

Which is it? You are speaking out of both sides of your mouth. You say you have not sent anything to the new House leadership yet you have.

 

Just who are you referring to as the new house leadership ?

 

I invited Rallston to come to the IPE, as I did his predecessor as already mentioned. But I really did not expect to hear back from him. And I didn't.

 

I made no effort to get any of the leadership to the show floor this year as the 4 or 5 times I tried to get MY Legislator to attend when he was Speaker was a waste of time, so I really don't expect the representative from Blue Ridge to pay me any attention.

 

The Ag Department had a booth at the IPE again this year. And actually manned it most of the time. Poultry just has not been as high on their list the past 10 years. I am hoping Gary Black will win in November and change that attitude.

 

I also invite the Powers that Be at the Paulding IBA and the Chamber to come to the IPE every year, but none have attended since George Hansen in 1990 I believe it was. Lots of businesses their to court to take a serious look at a location in Paulding, but no one seems to want to make that effort. For many many years I even got them all badges, at no charge. And they still did not have time.

 

And I still don't understand your point at all. I do trade occaisional emails with Sen Hamrick if there is a poultry related bill in the Senate, and Sen Heath actually stays on top of the Poultry issues. He grew chickens for Gold Kist for many, many years. And he does generally answer me even though he is not my Senator.

Well, at least the attorneys have a lil common sense. You hired counsel for a reason, but what ever floats your boat!

[Animal]

Ahh this time of the year with all the heated debates & canidates is for one major purpose. This is adult entertainment at it's best

[surepip]

Well, at least the attorneys have a lil common sense. You hired counsel for a reason, but what ever floats your boat!

 

Simple. We were willing to sit down and discuss it face to face with David Austin to attempt to find an out of court settlement. Our suits are against the BOC and the Developer and the Development Company.

 

I have to assume you would rather just let the lawyers fight every inch of the way, keep paying them, and NOT try to find a common ground to reach an amicable conclusion.

 

That $Million+ already paid out by the county to their Atlanta attorney could have kept alot of people at their jobs with the county. Seems stupid to not attempt to find a settlement.

 

But then again.....

[dapandlap]

I do not have knowledge of any possible wrongdoings by the former board members, I do not know if Ms. Cochran did.

But to answer your question if I did know of something that was not right, I would not hold back in fear for my job. I believe the word would be integrity, and standing up for the right thing.

I could not work in a situation knowing that I was forced to "keep quiet", just to keep a job.

And then expect the incoming Chairman to retain you in that job no less. When you work for an elected official on his personal staff you are 100% expendable when the next administration arrives. Ms Cochran felt she was entitled to her job forever.

 

I see her main purpose running for commissioner is to be as vindictive as possible. I should have had my open records request today. I will check on it tomorrow and will put up what I receive.

Now THIS is the very reason candidates will not come in here to speak. You are making unfounded assumptions about someone you have not talked to in person. You have no idea why she is running for office, but you are damn sure set to try to destroy any chance of her winning! You've already turned on David Austin like a rabid dog when you didn't get your way.

Excuse me? Rabid Dog when I did not get my way ?

I offered to sit down and negotiate. David and I had a nice meeting at the time, and since. David let me know three members of the BOC chose NOT to sit down and negotiate until the Judge rules on the primary motion now at hand. OK with us. We offered to let the county off for far less than the dollars in the suit. Instead, from that point forward, we let it stand. WE can say we offered. They chose not to even give it a shot.

 

I have not turned on David Austin at all. I saw and spoke with him last week as well. Where do you get your misinformation from ? Where do you get off saying I have turned on him ? Excuse me again???????? You and your bureau of misinformation appear to be working overtime.

 

I will be picking up my open records request information tomorrow concerning Beverly, and will scan them and post to p.com as soon as possible.

 

I will be awaiting for an apology from you in the interim, although I highly doubt I will see one. Like some of your cohorts.....you are not always right, but are NEVER wrong.

 

Rabid Dog? Are you on meds?

Hmmm, reminds me that when liberals are losing, they turn to name calling.

 

And then expect the incoming Chairman to retain you in that job no less. When you work for an elected official on his personal staff you are 100% expendable when the next administration arrives. Ms Cochran felt she was entitled to her job forever.

 

I see her main purpose running for commissioner is to be as vindictive as possible. I should have had my open records request today. I will check on it tomorrow and will put up what I receive.

Nice accusation you have there about Beverly. You are really a vindictive person.

Praise thee

 

I can assure you that surepip is no liberal, And has voted Republican more times,Than you can imagine, And is still supporting and voting for many Republicans today.

 

Your false claims does nothing to further the Paulding County Republican Party. Just because surepip is not supporting Beverly Cochran this does not make him a liberal, As you claim.

 

As far as Surepip being vindictive,I THINK ???? not sure, That you know what the open records request is going to reveal, I hope that you and all others look at this information with a open mind
