What government office gets 5-star reviews??? This one! I've traveled a lot and always get anxiety dealing with the bureaucratic nightmare that tends to be government. The bureaucracy here is no better, but that is not the fault of the people who work there. I've yet to come across a friendlier and more helpful group to help a clueless citizen navigate their web of requirements. Sherri Rogers, in particular, went above and beyond and out of her way to help me. It is my position that if she and her team were running the local government, it would be a much greater pleasure to deal with.
