INC NEWS - dirt streets to be paved

[RW Pickle]

The entire email was not pertinent to the subjected post. That is why it
was parsed. Perhaps you would have liked all of the pages, but I doubt
that anyone would have enjoyed having their mailboxes packed with more
irrelevant information.  A recent example was an email from another
Director from another City department. She told us in advance of an email
that it was 14 meg of material and if we wanted it, she'd send it by snail
mail. I appreciated the fact that she was concerned, as well as she should
have been, that emails of that size would clog most email programs. In
fact, the list server has a cap on the size of any post because of this
issue. So when you see something broken down into only the relevant parts,
understand that it was done so for a reason. Not that it was filtered or
"all" of the irrelevant information was not included. I think this is
generally understood and appreciated by most. Certainly the more concise
an email is, the easier it is read and followed.

So just to respond to your concerns, "her" is Julie Brenmen, the head of
Budget and Finance and the person who heads up CCIP. If you even know what
CCIP is and does, then "her" was known as well. Neither of these pieces of
information were really relevant. The post related to dirt street
improvements. The message in the post was more important to those who
wanted this information than the details you wonder about. In fact, if you
follow the work done by our City Council, this is old news as they have
already dealt with this issue. But it wasn't widely distributed. Most
neighborhoods with this issue are well aware of what the plans are for
paving and improving our miles of gravel roads in this City. Some may not
be, and for those that  it is not an issue, it was all irrelevant anyway.

It's about getting information out there, not the picky irrelevant details
you regularly get muddled in. Complaints are better dealt with off this
list. It just wastes others time and mailbox space.
