Tru
TV Seeks Code Enforcement
Professionals For "All Worked Up"
August
25, 2010 -- Tru TV's "All Worked Up" is
a series that goes on the job with people whose
work entails delivering bad news or dealing with
difficult situations where the recipient may
explode in a rage. Whether it is serving
subpoenas, parking violations, or towing cars,
there is never a dull moment in this half-hour of
non-stop action.
Casting Producer Danielle Gervais is seeking Code
Enforcement Officials to be featured in the
series' third season. "We're looking for
outgoing and dynamic Code Enforcement Officials
who manage to keep smiles on their faces, and
their sanity, while working a truly tough
job," Gervais said.
The documentary-style series features people
working in challenging jobs that consistently
test their patience, will power and sanity.
Gervais said that as part of their search, they
are looking for the ultimate Code Enforcement
Official to take part in this exciting new series
and show what it takes to stay tough and in
control while making sure rules are followed.
Gervais said, "We’re looking for
outgoing folks who are passionate and proud of
what they do and are willing to show us the ropes
when it comes to their job and what it takes to
succeed when things get tough – the crazier
the stories, the better. The documentary-style
show would profile these individuals over the
course of a week and would focus on the job from
their point of view."

representing the Code Enforcement profession in
"All Worked Up", contact Danielle

Business
Meeting Produces By-Law
Changes, New Board Members
March
14, 2010 -- MACE members enacted several By-Law
changes and voted in two new board members at the
organization's 18th Annual Business Meeting, held
March 11 in Columbia.
By-Law Changes
Members rejected a By-Law proposal that would
have eliminated term limits for officers. The
titles of three board positions were changed with
approval of the membership. The office of First
Vice President became Vice President, the office
of Second Vice President became Professional
Development Director and the office of Third Vice
President became Membership Director. A change in
officer's duties was also approved as the Vice
President will now chair the Audit Committee
instead of the Treasurer. Another change approved
will allow voting by email or fax. In the past,
voting could only occur by those in attendance at
the Annual Meeting.  |
John
Parks Appointed To MACE Board
 March
7, 2010 -- Layoffs in municipal government are an
unfortunate reality facing many of us in today's
economy. That reality hit home for a member of
the MACE Board of Directors last month. Third
Vice President Jeff Vogel (left) was laid off
from his position as  a
Code Enforcement Officer for the City of Belton
and subsequently stepped down from his position
on the MACE Board.
Kansas City's John Parks (right) has been
appointed to fill the vacancy and has assumed the
position of Third Vice President. John also
serves as President of the Heartland Association
of Code Enforcement (HACE).
