Every day we see signs directing us, telling us what not to do and cautioning us as we proceed. Signs meant to guide and protect us on our journey through life. When seeking insight regarding our life’s journey, we must be careful to separate the signs placed to guide us and those we create through self-will. Lost? Here’s the context.
Recall from last year’s letter that Anita’s organization Clermont Pets Alive! (CPA) was awarded a contract by the Clermont County Board of Commissioners as their third party agent to rescue dogs (and later cats) from euthanasia at our local animal shelter for 2013 and 2014. Also recall, the Commissioners “promised” to bid out the shelter contract for 2014 vs. give it to the organization that’s held it for the past 50+ years. January 2014 came and went, without a Request for Proposal (RFP). In March the Commissioners extended the legacy organization’s 2013 contract through the end of 2014. Rick remained in contact with the County Administrator, always confident a RFP would be issued, just never sure when, for what period or scope.
