December 1, 2010 written statement by Carroll County Maryland Commissioner Dean Minnich about the employee terminations - - http://www.scribd.com/doc/44730025/December-1-2010-Commissioner-Minnich-statement-about-the-employee-terminations

In a written statement about the employee terminations, Minnich elaborated: “I would like to express my personal appreciation for their service, their sacrifices on behalf of the people and their collegial work with all of the employees of the county.

“As an elected representative, chosen by the people, I asked these people and every other employee for their skills, best work, the benefits of their education, experience, energy, sense of fairness and integrity, and they delivered admirably.

“Not once were any of them asked to engage in political or partisan activity in the execution of their work, and none of them abused or misused the trust we placed in them.

“It was faith in such people that gave me the confidence to step forward eight years ago, and to continue for a second term, and I am gratified for the experience of having worked with them.  I wish them well.”
