The mother’s milk of The Government teat is richly rewarding and must be addictive. Elective service jobs were never meant to be a career. Unfortunately, as they age, politicians find they are unqualified for real jobs.
Interesting. Cape Charles is run by people whom I suspect have very successful professional lives, but are disasters at running this town. They can’t live within their own zoning laws and so they bend the rules constantly to suit whichever friend approaches them.
Get this – tomorrow, we are going to have a hearing on public bathrooms. Town Council is going to grant any citizen three minutes to speak. Good luck. I would be willing to bet that someone close to Town Council is already in their ears and whatever the townspeople bring forth is a mere formality. ie a waste of time.
Why is this? Town Council is not skilled at administration and they don’t seem to be able to focus on both the administration of Cape Charles and granting wishes to their friends at the same time.
Case in point: In May, Town Council voted unanimously to maintain the new bike trail in perpetuity. The next week they produced a 2026 Budget and would not respond to requests for where they budgeted for the cost of this maintenance.
Additionally, on July 4th, they hosted a children’s event on a condemned property.
Heads up – last night the “Planning Commission” voted to advance a recommendation to allow for a variance for a real estate marketing sign that is in violation of regulations put in place just this last December 19, 2024. Why even have a regulation? Guarantee it passes Town Council. Watch. The laws mean nothing here.
I clearly don’t know how to get things done in Cape Charles. But there is a small “club” of people who do. Good luck figuring it out.
Oh, and good luck with the bathrooms.
Is the entire property condemned or just the building/s? I’m not versed on local/state law, but a parking lot next to an uninhabitable house is not necessarily dangerous. Didn’t I read that you live only ten feet away from these condemned properties? Did you have to move since it’s so toxic?
A very specific reference for an anonymous person. I wonder where you got that Councilman?
You are on YouTube at zoning meetings. You have posted on this website many, many times. Not hard to figure out. And no, not part of any past or present CC government, nor do I personally know anyone in CC government. What a strange response!
Ok then maybe you are just a champion for the Town Council then. Regardless, I don’t fight with anonymous strangers on the internet. I do encourage you however to review the meaning of “willful gross negligence” and then ask yourself why anyone running a town would subject their taxpayers to this risk, needlessly.
