Pettys: Gena Evans to get the boot?
February 25, 2009 at 4:51 pm by Thomas Wheatley in NewsAin’t no better time to replace the general than in the middle of battle, right? Uh, right?
Dick Pettys of Insider Advantage reports:
A palace revolt is brewing among members of the state Board of Transportation, and sources say it is poised to try to dump Commissioner Gena Evans on Thursday.
The board has a called meeting that day to take up budget matters. If it goes into closed session, a vote to remove Evans will likely be conducted.
…
If she is voted out, look for the governor and likely the lieutenant governor to argue that is exactly the reason why DOT should be relegated to a maintenance agency status and a new State Transportation Authority given power over policy and funding.

I am glad the ethics she was preaching about finally fit the foot that they went on.Remember when you point a finger you got 3 pointing back at yourself.The only news that would have been than this would be to hear that Sonny & Cagle got fired.They are power & money hungry too.The State Transportation Board did what the Board was appointed to do “serve the citizens of Georgia” & I think this was a step in the right direction.
