TODAY WAS THE INAUGURAL ANIMAL CARE COMMUNITY OUTREACH COMMISSION MEETING - AND NO ACTIVISTS

Today was the first meeting of the newly formed animal commission for the County of San Bernardino. And not one of the activists who demanded this commission bothered to show. After all that fuss, primarily from outsiders, and they didn't even bother to show for the first meeting. Could it be they had nothing to talk about, no evidence of their accusations to present?

There is still one seat unfilled at the present time. The first meeting was delayed because of a lack of interest and that goes for the last seat to be filled. Doesn't that show something along the lines of we, the people, don't think there is a problem with Devore.

The activists didn't bother to show, their candidates for election were defeated, now go home, wherever that is. The very least they could have done is shown their faces since they wanted this so badly. Just goes to show, the activists have nothing, nothing to back themselves up on their accusations, and nothing to show this commission.

  2. Did you announce this anywhere? I never saw anything about it. Not very good "friends" is you don't tell anybody. Just goes to show, you aren't a very good friend for Devore.

    1. Did you bother to read the link above, it plainly states the meeting date. Plus one would think that if someone were interested enough, they would make an effort to keep up.

      The first meeting of the Animal Care Community Outreach Commission is scheduled for Tuesday, June 18 at 12:30 p.m. It will be held in the auditorium at San Bernardino County’s Department of Behavioral Health located at 850 East Foothill Boulevard in Rialto.

  3. What a "friendly" reply! One would also think that there would have been also enough effort to make this meeting to be heard .

    1. Excuse me? I do believe your comment was a tad nasty and you get what you give.

      Now, it is your responsibility to keep up. Where's your effort?

  4. I may have misread but is there a chance for a second meeting? I'm not sure who the two groups arguing here are, but I would be interested in attending.

    1. The next meeting is scheduled for Friday, October 4 at 9:00 am. Public attendance is welcome at the meeting. The Commissioners I believe are excited to work with members of the general public to address the Commission’s goals.

  5. Was referred to this blog by a supporter regarding the superior condition of the kennels in which the 'guests' live and came across this meeting update.

    I don't understand the tone regarding the public having to make an "effort to keep up".

    Now that the above meeting has passed, some friendly questions so anyone reading this can help keep their responsibilities without needing to Google every day:

    1) Where are the meeting dates posted?

    2) Does the next meeting already have a date and if so, when is it?

    Thanks

  6. Government does what is prescribed by law to notify the public. It is up to the public to at least make the effort to see this information. The tone was set when comments were trying to make excuses for the irresponsible who failed to keep up.

    A local paper published the announcement of the meeting and the agenda was posted on the San Bernardino website for all to see. According to the Brown Act, a notice was also posted at the meeting location. Would it take TV ads and billboards to notify people, we know how it works and it is our responsibility to look for it, not it chase us down.

    The next meeting is scheduled for Friday, October 4 at 9:00 am. Public attendance is welcome at the meeting. The Commissioners I believe are excited to work with members of the general public to address the Commission’s goals.

Remember no accusations without proof. Rant if you will, it won't be published.
