MAD CO. Becker praises Madison County progress in State of the County

Worth reading the entire article....Becker made some interesting comments/ criticisms of several "Committees".... ONEIDA DISPATCH ...great source of local information!!!

1/3/18 WAMPSVILLE >> After being the sole nomination, Sullivan Supervisor John Becker was named again as chairman of the board of supervisors at Tuesday’s organizational meeting. In his eleventh year in that role, Becker gave his state of the county address, overviewing the board’s progress last year and his charge for this year.

Becker said the highways, buildings and grounds committee will have a big job ahead of it this year with the oversight of the county court house renovations. The $15 million overhaul to make it handicapped accessible and compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act should’ve been done in 1990 when ADA requirements were first enacted. The project “could have been completed for a fraction of today’s costs,” he said.  SEE REST OF ARTICLE AT:
