The Calaveras Council of Governments (CCOG) which is the only distribution center of all highway and road moneys to come into Calaveras County, is in political turmoil.
After the fight
at the Calaveras Supervisors meeting last week, the public became aware that not only are seats on the COG Board political appointments, but that the Exec. Melissa Eads, takes steps to control who applies.
Although it was apparent that Supervisor Callaway and other Supervisors in the past had given some influence over the appointments, never before has this corruptive practice been brought into the light as it has now.
COG advertises with out tax money for voters and taxpayers to apply to sit on the COG Board; that they need volunteers.
After listening to the disheartening statements made by people who actually took steps to volunteer and were mistreated by the COG staff, there is no more hiding the corruption.
No matter who you are or what you know, unless you "SUCK UP" to the current Supervisor, as Tim Meutterties and his wife of District 3 have, you will NOT be appointed. Its a sad, sick fact and shows Oliveira for what he really is.
