The Commissioners Court is having to spend more money on the new County Administrator's office.
One item of interest that caught Commissioner Carlos Leon's attention was an expense for a refrigerator.
To which County Judge Veronica Escobar said that the ADA requires the employees have access to refrigerators to store medications. She went on further to say every department gets that.
I am sorry if I am not an ADA expert, but is there a requirement that that there be a refrigerator within certain walking distance or that X amount of refrigerators need to be available on each floor?
This all seems a bit silly.
At least in the private sector, which Veronica Escobar has never been in, generally there is a refrigerator and it is in the break room. There isn't a rule that every department gets one.
Escobar's reasoning borders on bullshit.
She just wants another place to stash her meds...her white zinfadel and chardonnay.
Petty, petty.

Is that the same reasoning as her $10,000 leather chairs for the Judges' ample posterior that Commission Dan Haggerty- RIP-- balked at a couple years ago? Talk about breaking the taxpayer (and not even for Kim Kardashian's ass).

H,
The problem is room temperature is relative. In Europe, room temperature is probably 65 or 60 degrees.
