Schillo’s Ego at Work
Now we know what Frank Schillo thinks about his constituents: We are much too stupid to find 199 Hillcrest Road.
The Thousand Oaks mall just across the street from that office and the fire station next door with those big yellow shiny trucks. But it seems that Mr. Schillo’s “edifice complex” can only be soothed by an additional 1,300 feet and $3,323 a month of taxpayers’ dollars so that he can be “more accessible.”
Shivers go down my spine just remembering the adventure of discovering Maria VanderKolk’s, as well as, Madge Schaefer’s office when they occupied that same 199 Hillcrest address. I guess it must be the gender thing. Women can do the job of serving their constituents without the ultimate necessity of waving their arms about and screaming, “Look at me, Mama, no hands.”
It seems that Mr. Schillo’s idea of cutting the county budget falls short of cutting into his own ego.
