Judy Haverkamp talked about what she’d discovered through open records requests.
“It seems like there’s been the same violations still occuring at the shelter even up to this year, and it doesn’t seem like anyone is trying to make an effort to correct these problems!”She repeatedly cited Georgia code sections that had been violated.
This pretty much sums it up:
“Why would you not do the proper thing to make this process as painless as possible?”Indeed, why not?

Short Link:
She should have stood right there at that podium until she got answers to her questions and comments.
The county holds the taxpaying public accountable for their choices and actions – why should tax paid city employees not be as well.
I hope the Lowndes Co. voting taxpayers remember this unresolved – perhaps covered up, animal shelter issue at election time.
Regadless – she was very well prepared and spoken.
