Mr. Ayres,II[

I received yoru letter dated March 19, 2010. In it you refene, rce a couple requests for information that Ihave requested but have not yet received answers. You strated that you would inquire as to those mattrersand respond to me. It has been over five weeks and I have yet to receive anything from you or anyoneelse.

I also want to know what the Town of Ocean Crty has done since October 3,2010 to make sure thatwhathappenedto my husband neverhappens to myone else. And lastly, is Joanne Brubage stillemployed by the Town of Ocean City 911 Dispatch Center?

As I told the Mayor dwing otrFebnrary 27 meeting,I will not rest, or go away, wd I receive thednswersl to these questions. If I can't get the affrwers on my orvn, I have no problem f4king my story tothe residents of Ocean City and anyone else willing to list€Nr. It will then be up to them todecide whether or not the Toum of Ocean City 911 Disparch and Fire and EMS are beingmanaged proprly by the current Mayor and Town Council. If not, they will have the upcoming electionto make sure that their voices are heard-

I would appreciate a response to my questions no later than lvlay 14,2010. Thank you.

Jackie Rehmann
