Fairfax Underground still in the news and forcing change at the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department

The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors has ordered a consultant to review the working environment at the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department, with an eye toward how female employees are treated.

“The Board of Supervisors directs the County Executive to retain an outside third-party consultant to assess the working environment within the Fire and Rescue Department, focusing on equal employment issues, workforce morale, mental health assistance, and communications issues,” Chairman Sharon Bulova said in a statement Tuesday during the Board of Supervisors’ meeting.

A preliminary investigation determined that there was no departmental knowledge of harassment related to Mittendorff prior to her disappearance and confirmed that no county computer had been used to access or post on Fairfax Underground, which is an independent site not associated with Fairfax County government.

So... Fairfax County drops back and punts. Hiring a consultant is hardly an investigation. Delay, delay, delay and we the dumb public will soon forget.

The public Wifi at Fairfax County (Herrity Building) blocks Fairfax Underground. I am sure the private access does the same.

The bigger question is WHO is the third party? Will the entire report ever be made public?

Sounds to me like an attempt to appease the media and residents.

Once there are issues found at the FCPD the report will quickly be hidden from the public.
