Glad to hear it! Sharon has been leading Treo for years….and failing. Treo had to re-structure over her failed leadership. Ramon Valadez and Sharon each wrote separate columns in Inside Tucson Business claiming Pima County is Business friendly and the problems we are having are just ‘hype’ and those that realize the problem is real are ‘extreme’. Extreme? Extremely unemployed, extremely underpaid, extremely over taxed, if that’s what she means. Her website repeats it. The real problem…..our local elected officials don’t SEE a problem……THAT is the problem. That’ why she can’t lead at the Board of Supervisors, that’s why she failed at TREO wasting millions, she, by her own column writings, thinks the problem is all ‘hype’ and the County is doing a great job. A challenger is JUST what she needs. After some time in the real world hunting a job she might realize there really is a problem!! Let’s give her that reality check!!
GO TANNER!!!
hey wild cat addict if TREO is failing blame the person in charge – joe snell. she is but one board member and if you are blaming board members then raytheon’s ceo has some ‘splaining to do.
such a dumb comment WCA.
She CO-CHAIRED that board when it had to be restructured due to lack of effectivness. That’s ‘the truth’.
I see the missundertanding, a typo. Let me correct the line….
‘Sharon HAD been leading TREO for years….and failing.’
Why the ‘dumb comment’ mud ‘truth’? Are you one of those that if someone says something you don’t agree with then you just call it ‘dumb’? People like that nausiate me. They nausiate everyone…..
Board chairs trump Presidents in the heiarchy of an organization ‘truth’. Presidents serve and act at the pleasure of the Board and it’s Chair. Learn how these things operate before calling someone else dumb.
