It's time to shut up, learn your job, and become knowledgeable on the issues facing Peachtree City not strutting like some immature peacock showing his yet developed tail feathers. I'm sure Mr Imker will listen to you if you have something germane to any particular issue, but good luck with the mayor since its obvious that the only persons he listens to are Cathy Haddix and himself.

You have learned that you do not speak for Ms Leonard nor Ms Fleish, or I hope you don't attempt it again else you may be in for another public embarrassment.

Great....just what PTC needs. Another dysfunctional member on Council. We currently have one (Haddix) who is a megalomaniac, another (Imker) who has a Bully Complex and one (Learnard) who I had and continue to have high hopes for but I am afraid is beginning to exhibit symptons of Egomania. Fleisch? Other than a predilection towards big hair and making sure it stays in place during Council meetings, the poor girl just doesn't appear to have much grey matter between the ears. And now having removed one (Sturbaum) who had somewhat of a Daddy Complex always wanting to gain approval and please Daddy Don, we have replaced him with one (Dienhart) who apparently suffers from a Messiah Complex in which he believes he is or is destined to become "The Savior". I agree with Todd Strickland's presentation to Council this past Thursday night. The problem really never was DAPC. The problem has been we have a Council who cannot get along, take the high road when disagreements arise and come together for what is best for PTC. And now with Deinhart The Savior it looks like more of the same. What a bunch of small headed people we have elected to look out for this great city.

Looks like we have the next humongous ego in an elected position with maybe even more arrogance than the present people he's going to try and "fix." Sheesh.

Instead of just doing it, George has to write a long letter to the newspaper extolling his virtues and trying to position himself as THE MAN. So, we now have Brown, Haddix and Dienhart as resident loudmouths who-to borrow a phrase from George Busbee many years ago-are show horses instead of workhorses.

Just shut up already and try to do a decent job once you take office instead of feeding your ego or even pretending to know something about PTC when you just arrived not long ago.

Is it possible that he just does not realize that he was elected as the lesser of two evils????

Nice idea to meet with other councilmembers but it might be better to simply call them and go do it instead of writing to the paper about it.

Just pretend I go to your meet and greet and say hi. Then I will explain that Haddix and Imker will always be Haddix and Imker and there is nothing you or anyone else can do to change that. You just got elected (sort of) and you need to learn about the job and then bone up on some issues and then worry about the civility in meetings - in that order. 1 - 2- 3 OK?

The reality is that you and Imker will be serving together for 4 years. 1 or 2 of those years may include Haddix, but he is no longer relevant. The ladies run the show, Eric chimes in about the budget and you can seek out whatever role you choose - except leader and peacemaker, you are the new guy - remember?.

You can either be a stooge for the mayor - sort of a Sturnbaum II OR you can do something really productive which is become the local expert on business development, industrial recruiting and job creation for our city. There is no one on council that knows anything about it, so you can study a little, talk to county and state people and other cities and counties - even the dreaded developer and landowner and hit the ground running in January and be the undisputed council expert by April.

Any preconceived notions you have about DAPC, EDC's, FCDA, spec buildings, ARC, Sany, the Governor or anything else need to be rebooted in light of current economic conditions and the city's image which has really taken a beating because of Haddix and Brown.
