The Report Pervasive Paranoia in County Government
Towards the very beginning of the much-anticipated Fitzmaurice and Walsh report on County government, there is a stark paragraph. Of the 274 current County employees that returned questionnaires for the report, some were returned "unsigned, incomplete or with a letter or note attached reflecting a pervasive level of paranoia within the County government.'
Much of the perceived paranoia came directly from the Personnel Office. The largest share, by far, of complaints were about Cassandra Ethington. On top of this, the fighting of the Board of Supervisors made the situation worse. Beyond this, other Departments seemed to follow the lead of the Personnel Department as Mrs. Ethington attempted to expand her influence.
