\ son ^ a Jot Lanier _g ii Since my article about what 1 consider too much of a good thing in regard to the use of the town of Warsaw's vehicles by an employee who lives near C.M. Outlaw's store, and the town clerk, 1 have received several phone calls about Warsaw's Police Department driving police cars out of town ? one to Clinton and the other complaint was about one parked at a home near Johnson's Church. Police Chief R.P. Wood says the only time a vehicle is driven to Clinton or in that direction is on official duty or to have it repaired under warranty.. .The one in the Johnson Church area is driven when the policeman living in that area is on call. . .And. in this case 1 certainly am of (he opinion this is a bit too much. . .All town-owned vehicles are purchased at the consent of the tax-paying citizens of the town to do one thing ? that is to work for the town. . .To drive these autos and trucks oflt of town for the express purpose of transporting an employee to and from home is not part of that implied permission, in my opinion. . .Employees driving out of the city limits do not contribute to the town's tax base that pays for the vehicles or for their salary. If anyone is to be penalized on vehicle use, in my opinion, it would certainly be those not living inside the town and contributing to the town's tax base. . .However, in Warsaw things seem to be a bit backwards. It is not the employee who is at fault.. .He or she, who ever it may be, can only do what the town board allows. As long as the town board allows town-owned vehicles to be used in this way. the employees will be smart enough to use them. The State of North Carolina allows its state-owned vehicles to be driven home ? not for personal business, but home and back, and it charges each employee doing so, a certain fee eacn montn to oe paia trom tne employee s salary. . .it is Joe's opinion that each employee, town, county, state or federal, should have a definite sum tied to his or her cost. . .There is no way to tie a fixed cost before the fact when an employee is allowed to drive a vehicle home. In Warsaw, for example, if the cost of furnishing a vehicle to the town clerk, the wastewater employee, and to the police sergeant were added to their present salaries, they would, without a doubt, be the highest paid people in their fields in Duplin County. . .Remember, they only have what is given them by the town board. . .By the way, Warsaw has the highest tax rate of any town in Duplin County. . . ***** My mom has a very rambunctious bird, a parakeet. The bird plays with all sorts of things on the floor ? empty yogurt cups, the egg-shaped panty hose containers, marbles, jingle bells, and so on. I think it quite unusual for a bird to knock over cups and then set them back up, or get two or three plastic containers going around and around at the same time. The little bird is brave, too. He will sit on most anyone's arm or shoulder and chirp away. . .This past week. Mom was afraid he would harm himself or fly " away because he was flying all over the place. So, she clipped his w ings one night and put him in his cage for the night. The next morning, when uncovered, he came to the cage door, chirped several times and jumped out as if to fly. But. like a rock, he fell to the fl> or, with wings aflapping. Once on the floor he flapped and jumped and flapped and jumped with a bit of success, but not much. . He was able to fly back up to the cage. He went inside and for the past few days he has stayed in that cage. . .Still chirps and appears to be singing. . .But, I wonder if in reatity he is complaining 5>on-ot-a-Oun ....
