Joint Primary Elections to be Pursued in
Lubbock County - why is Patti
Jones speaking on this? It has very little to do with her. The
County is not the authority conducting primary elections, the
parties are and they contract the the County. Jones, from the
beginning has tried to run the Elections Office and she does not
have that Constitutional role. She has no role in what the political
parties do. By the way, we have more than enough equipment to
conduct separate primaries - I did it with this same equipment. It
just requires consolidating precincts as we've always done. |

New Lubbock ISD playgrounds bring fun to students
and neighborhoods - you do remember
that it was just a few years ago that LISD took out all the playgrounds and
said liability was too big of an issue, don't you? Now you're paying to put
them all back in. The one near me is on the opposite side of the sports field
from an existing, and nice, city playground. Now the field has two taxpayer
playgrounds. One on each side. This story says school people don't remember
why they were taken out? What bull crap!!! I've had multiple teachers remind
me of when they were pulled out and the argument about liability. The AJ
didn't bother to search their own records - no surprise.
Here's one easy to find story.

Using FBI data, Forbes lists Lubbock as #6 most
dangerous city
- the numbers are the numbers. Lubbock has had
numerous police chiefs and thus little stability in policing over the past
15 years. Add to that police department culture and discipline problems and
this is somewhat explainable. Local leaders are quite upset by this report
but, the numbers are what they are. The FBI gets its numbers from those
reported by the local police department. Either way, the local P.D. has a
bruised reputation – either it provided wrong numbers or it is are having a
real problem suppressing crime. |

Judge: Audit of City of Lubbock
healthcare provider is open record
- a true shame as it is not a complete or fair audit. It was done by

No expertise in the specific industry, and done without all the
information. In other words, it was not an audit but a hit piece
created by the city staff. |

management chose to use AAG as a scapegoat and laid cost increases at its
feet. But now their chosen firm raises costs and its just because costs are
going up nationally! What a joke, these people deserve little to no respect. |

City, media want audit released
- The “audit” in question was not an independent audit. Instead, it was an
audit done by a firm which openly bragged in its brochure that it will get
whatever results its client wants. This so-called audit was a setup from the
Lubbock top brass. It is the City of Lubbock which refused, repeatedly, to
allow a true independent audit to be conducted. Remember, an offer was made
on Pratt on Texas and in other media outlets, as well is in District Court,
by the Ted Parker folk to abide by a true outside, independent audit from a
qualified firm. Heck, Parker even agreed to let the media choose the firm.
The City of Lubbock refused at every turn. That’s all you really need to
remember as it tells you who had the most to hide. (By the way, an
overcharges didn't go to Parker but to hospitals and doctors.) |

School Closures and Consolidations Likely Amidst Lubbock ISD Budget Cuts
- why do they try and deny this. They already said they planned to close
schools as part of the bond package so why would they not do so more rapidly
with this excuse. It was always an unethical thing to list each campus as
getting something from the bond election when they had already said some
schools would close. |

State records show several application errors for Tech regent,
Steinmetz did
graduate from the Tech School of Banking (pdf)
which was a 2-year school done after
undergraduate graduation which is what the term "post graduate" means. This
entire episode is an exercise in the worst of human nature: envy. Envy by
those who didn't get the appointment and their allies. It is being driven by
those envious of not getting the appointment and, folk at Steinmetz former
place of employment where bad feelings exist. I am not saying that I
personally support his appointment or even him but, this personal attack
stuff is unwarranted. He's far more "qualified" than others who have served
as many of them didn't even choose Tech as their school for undergraduate
work. Steinmetz was a Tech student body president, graduated from Tech and
the Tech School of Banking later. He is as qualified for the appointment as
almost anyone who has served as a Tech regent. The attacks on his person are
unwarranted.

Homeowners express concern about new solid waste dump - that's why, when living in the country,
you need to buy up much land around you. Others have the right to use their
land as they see fit just as do you. If it causes harm, that is what a tort
is for and such is appropriate. |

for electricity after 2019?

oblivious to because they'll know no other system. |
