Three weeks ago, we ended an editorial (“Meanwhile, One Barrington Hills makes amends, extinguishes website and turns the volume down”) with the following:
“And just last month, residents reported they couldn’t hear April’s Board of Trustees meeting due to low or no volume when they phoned in, so what are they to make of this?
If the OBH party is sending a less than subtle message to residents, consider it received, Brian, David, Laura, and Tom. But you’re in for a LONG three (3) more years in office.”
Monday, residents who dialed the number to connect to the May Board of Trustees meeting heard the usual:
”Welcome to My One Number. If you are the host, press star now. Otherwise please wait and you will be joined into the conference.”
After some time passed, the message changed to indicate the conference had begun, but beyond that there was nothing but silence. The frustrated residents who took time to listen in were left to question what went wrong (again) or was it their error. The made no error.
We know President Cecola reads The Observer, so he was aware of the telephony issues weeks ago. But apparently, he is just too busy to address a documented issue that negatively reflects on both him and his administration. Or, he simply doesn’t care.
The question now is what other issues is he too busy to address or not care about? The way things are recently, we’ll be the last to know.
Perhaps addressing the issue of intentional flooding and civil rights violations? That’s a long list with just ‘retiring’ from committees. SGHTF
Refreshing that you are taking McLauglin’s clones to task.
