Mine basically said Thanks to agency staff and ED Roe for a job well done- smack to the legislature for not giving a fee increase in 15 years and then talking merger because the agencies aren't financially sound; and then I whacked certain BOC for conduct unbecoming a 3rd grader.
I added that I would be going to the Governor's office; which I did this morning. Since the Governor and his COS are in Brazil, I have a meeting now set for later in the week; but at least they are informed and have the contact emails and phone numbers of those that they can verify the nonsense with.

Great job on Sunday Gal, your PGC public comments were given with a cool, organized, collected point of view that needs to be heard from Elmerton Ave to Governor's Office... and then up and down the aisles on Capitol Hill.
Don...

Excellent statement. Great representation.
"Responsible fish and wildlife management should always be based on what is best for the resource
first, and then the long-term viability of hunting and fishing. What's best for "me" may not always be
what's best for the resource."
Great comment. Good reminder to all.

The last time the merger issue came up, the BOC passed a resolution opposing it. Did they do that this time? If not, why not - makes one wonder doesn't it?  Similarly, with the controversy over the proposed legislation for four year terms did the BOC take a position on that? If not why not?? Inquiring minds want to know - incompetency - or silent support? |

How about neither, just someone's wild imagination.

Good question Ted.
John, a whole lot of nonsense is going on. Now I'm hearing Commissioner Hoover is telling people that the agency is supporting the term limits bill when nothing is further from the truth.
If anyone has a wild imagination, its Hoover and Schlemmer.

Hey, this one is easy. Assuming the bill never gets past the Senate and dies on the vine, let each commissoner that supported a four year term, resign at the end of their fourth year. No problem.  |

not that easy - we like to say the legislators are self serving - well apparently we have commissioners that are the same way - seems many of them support these bills because current commissioners are eligible to serve another 4 years after their 8 years is up!!!

You are confused there can not be a 12 year Commissioner. Unless they are appointed to fill a vacancy of less than 4 years. I cannot recall any Commissioner serving nearly 12 years. Title 34 Sec 301 (C) Term of office and compensation.--The members of the commission shall hold office for terms of eight years each and may continue to hold office for a period of time not to exceed six months or until a successor is appointed and qualified, whichever occurs first. A member of the commission appointed to fill a vacancy for a period of four years or less may be eligible for appointment to a full eight-year term. A member of the commission who serves a full eight-year term or fills a vacancy for a period of more than four years shall not be eligible for reappointment to the commission until a period of eight years expires. Commissioners shall receive no compensation for their services, but may be reimbursed for travel expenses |

I think Ted is talking about the proposed new legislation that would change Title 34.

The new bills allows for unlimited terms for a commissioner. All that is required is to keep the legislature happy so they reconfirm the commissioner ever four years.
