Speak up, be heard and be counted in favor of effective Dallas County Government

TO BEGIN WITH:

After a six-year case history, at great and unnecessary expense to Dallas County taxpayers, during which the Dallas County E-911 Service Board repeatedly refused to provide an E-911 address, the E-911 Board reversed itself with no explanation of the unnecessary delay, the taxpayer expense or the reasons for the Board's self-reversal of its own Order.

The E-911 Board has been asked twice to reveal its reasons for this unexplained, expensive delay and to date has not responded.

This site  contains background information about this instance of the Dallas County E-911 Board's waste of taxpayer money.

Also provided here is a petition whereby Dallas County and other taxpayers can join together to request that the E-911 Board answer why this taxpayer money was wasted.

The Petition text follows in the next post.

Petition



 
PETITION
 
Whereas:
The Dallas County, Iowa Code, Title II, Chapter II, Section 11:03 states: "The Dallas CountyE-911 Service Board shall cause to have installed, signs for every person owning, controlling, occupying or using any house, store, storeroom or building situated on premises, fronting any public way…."

For a six year period, through two appeals to the E-911 Board and an appeal to the U.S.District Court, the E-911 Board refused, to address the parcel it has now addressed 26000 O Lane.

On October 6, 2011, after six years delay, the E-911  Board, reversed itself and did address 26000 O Lane after all.

All of the E-911 Board's reasons for its six-year denial and delay, as testified under oath by the Board's Chair and its Coordinator, are belied and mooted by the E-911 Board's self-reversal.

The Board's delay resulted in the expenditure of $149,887.93 in unnecessary attorney fees, $73,314.43 the Iowa Communities Assurance Pool paid on behalf of Dallas County and the E-911 Board, and, in addition, $76,573.50 personal expense to the taxpayer,  only then to reverse itself to the cost of a $4.25 sign.

The E-911 Board's violation of Section 11:03 and its egregious and unnecessary expense to taxpayers is a stain on Dallas County Government and demands that the E-911 Board reveal its true and full reason/s for its misuse of tax revenue by its delay.

Therefore:

I respectfully request the Dallas County Iowa E-911 Service Board to respond fully and truthfully to this request for the Dallas County E-911  Board's justification for wasting $73,314.43 of taxpayer's money in a useless, unnecessary six-year delay before reversing itself and addressing 26000 O Lane at a cost of a $4.25 sign post.
