Ryan House INCOMPLETE response: Incorrect Facts

The following is a conversation of emails between Board of Education candidate Ryan House and former Board of Commissioners chair Wendell Dawson. I am not one to besmirched Mr. House with the development tag,

Mr. House asked for me to print this, so hey, here it is, make up your own mind:


Dan,
I have included the email that Wendall Dawson and myself exchanged
today. I ask that you please remove the content that you have included
from the AVOC INC website on your website. The facts are not accurately
represented and are not true in the slighest way regarding the statement
that "AVOC has researched the candidacies and lists persons AVOC
believes to be the least influenced by the Development Community and
current "Power Clique"."

I am shocked to know that anyone would tie me to the development
community. As you will see in my orignial email, I have not accepted or
received any campaign contributions from any development community. As
the campaign contribution report clearly shows who has accepted the
development community's influence in this campaign. On my website I will
make available my campaign contribution report. I have am a transparent
person with no special interest to hide.

Everyone is entitled to vote however they see fit and that right is
given by the United States Constitution. I understand by reading your
website that you clearly are not supporting me in this election and I am
not seeking to influence that. This election should be decieded upon the
facts, not gross misrepresentations.
You are more than welcome to look at my website www.RyanHouse08.com to
see my stance and postions that I take on the important issues that will
affect Oconee County School System. I understand your contstructive
criticism and accept that I am not the best public speaker but, that
will not keep me from being a effective Board of Education Member if so
elected. If I am elected feel free to contact me if you have any issues
or concerns because I would be here as a representative of the entire
county not just the people who voted for me.

I hope you will look at the facts and my ideas on all issues with a
clear and open mind. I would appreciate your Vote on July 15th.

Thank you,
Ryan C. House


Ryan,

I hesitated to make an endorsement in your race.  I really do not know
either of you that well.   Development was not my reason for the Guest
selection.  Some have told me he brought a business background to the
BOE.

A couple of good friends challenged my selection in this race.   I have
since removed any preference in your race- as the article was originally
written.  I have made no contributions or actively supported either of
you in this race.

Thanks for writing.

Wtd

Mr.Dawson,

Good Morning, I have read your blog this morning and would like to
respond to one item that concerns me. I am Ryan House, the Board of
Education canidate that you have reported about on your website. I
respect your views and the postions you take since everyone is entitled
to their own opinions.  I would, however, like to point out a difference
that I do not agree with and does not representative of my candidacy at
all.

AVOC hasresearched the candidacies and lists persons AVOC believes to be
the least influenced by the Development Community and current "Power
Clique".

I am shocked to know that anyone would tie me to the development
community. I have not accepted any contributions from anyone within the
development community or anyone who has a special interest in the school
system. The campaign contribution disclosure report proves who is
connected and will be influenced by the Development Community and
current Power Clique.   I can assure you that the influence on our
school
policies will not come from the development community if I am elected.

My website www.RyanHouse08.com <http://www.ryanhouse08.com/>  lists all
my information and tells about myself in depth. I do not want the facts
to be misconstrued or misrepresented when it involves my name. I hope
that once you have looked at and read my website campaign material you
will take a second look at what you have posted on your site. I would
appreciate your vote on July 15th.


Ryan House
Canidate for BOE POST 2

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after...

A deep wound waiting to be healed - restoring order and dignity in the city cemetery

Image
The Watkinsville City Cemetery is an oasis amidst the houses on the east side of the municipality, near the neighborhood once called Sidney. There is a large section of the cemetery that remains a mystery, but perhaps we can work together to dignify the eternal resting spot somewhat better than the current neglected and forgotten (not to mention unmarked) graves of 70 people, more than likely of African-American descent. They deserve to be honored as well. An effort has been undertaken to repair the graves with fill dirt to stop the continued erosion amongst the graves. The most recent grave and bench belong to Larry Sheats,  and as any one who played basketball at Herman C. Michael Park or knew him otherwise  can attest, he was among the best people this county has ever seen. Larry was always ready to help. Now it is our turn to help. Do it for someone you knew there, maybe the Hardens, or the Downs, or any number of other people, but allow me to reminisce about how L...

I strongly disagree with the impending demolishing of the iconic Watkinsville Water Tower

Image
I know the Watkinsville Water Tower near where the "Big Spring" of what was one called Big Springs, Georgia serves no functional purpose anymore. I know it is a hazard. I know it is rusty and old and past its usefulness for the most part. I see a purpose beyond the aesthetic and instead as a possible financial benefit.  I know there is a way to keep it and make money for our municipality. I wonder who is doing the seemingly shoddy job of removing it (or at least preparing to raze it) and who stands to make money off that?  The dismantling of the Watkinsville Water Tower has already caused one gas leak and I can only imagine what problems await the demolition of the dinosaur.  If it is only because a group of kids have been crawling up it, then build a fence around it. I would think the City of Watkinsville would benefit and making monthly lease fees if they would instead do what about 90% of these abandoned water towers do and that is become a cellular telephone tow...
