Op maandag 1 juni was de jaarlijkse bestuurdersdag van de Unie van waterschappen. Dit keer gehouden in Slot Loevestein. Dr. Laurens de Graaf docent Bestuur en beleid van de Universiteit van Tilburg gaf een presentatie over burgerbewust besturen. Hij verraste de aanwezige waterschapsbestuurders met een Youtube filmpje van “Zondag met Lubach” over de waterschapverkiezingspromotie.
De persiflage was niet alleen leuk maar ook confronterend. Hoewel ik soms mijn eigen gedachten bij de vertoning had. Want toen Lubach verzuchtte over de waterschappen: “geen idee dat ze nog bestonden”, was mijn gedachte: dat dit voor een land grotendeels onder de zeespiegel eigenlijk goed nieuws was. Dijkgraaf Geluk van waterschap Hollandse Delta was helder: “wij doen ons werk zo goed dat het bijna niet opvalt.” Ik ben het daar van harte mee eens. Maar politieke bestuurders willen juist wel opvallen. Want anders is je bekendheid naatje en is de kans groot dat je niet gekozen wordt vanwege onbekendheid.
Dijkgraaf Glas van waterschap de Dommel sloeg de spijker op zijn kop met zijn verzuchting: “naarmate we het beter doen, wordt het politiek stiller om je heen.” Dat is zo. Maar kijk naar het nieuws. Waar bestaat dat uit? Vooral over zaken die niet goed gaan. Dan kom ik als waterschapsbestuurder liever niet in het nieuws, want dan gaat het goed en is Nederland veilig.
De zaal was vooral gevuld met nieuw gekozenen. De meeste oudgedienden waren thuis gebleven. Ze hadden naar mijn beleving ongelijk. De presentatie over vooral burgerparticipatie was de moeite waard en bevatte veel suggesties hoe bestuurders het konden aanpakken. Maar veel was toch nog geredeneerd vanuit het openbaar bestuur en niet vanuit de burger. Ik voel meer voor ‘bestuurdersparticipatie’. Niet de burger te gast bij de overheid en haar plannen, maar de bestuurder te gast bij de plannen van de burgerij om te kijken hoe burger initiatieven beter ondersteund zouden kunnen worden.
Aan het begin van de avond was ik uitgenodigd om voor de leden van de Markiezaatskamer in de Draak een presentatie te geven over het waterschap en haar activiteiten. Dat doe ik graag en het is altijd leuk om oud bekenden en nieuwe mensen te ontmoeten en ze iets te mogen vertellen over wat me bezighoud en over het grote onbekende waterschap. De discussie liet zien dat het voorzorgprincipe, zoals ik dat hanteer bij mijn werk als raadslid en waterschapsbestuurder, niet bij iedereen tussen de oren zit. Ook is er onder de leden van de Markiezaatskamer, die veel al bij het ouder worden de Juniorkamer moesten verlaten, nog veel van het vooruitgangsdenken bewaard gebleven. Maar verschillen in denken en achtergronden maken een discussie interessant en zinvol.

Om de veertien dagen is dinsdag weer Dagelijks Bestuurdersdag. Vandaag de eerste van deze periode. Voor mij was het belangrijkste agendapunt de portefeuilleverdeling. Ik ga in grote lijnen doen waar ik van 2009 tot februari 2014 ook mee bezig was. De waterschapsprojecten in de gemeenten: Drimmelen, Oosterhout, Waalwijk, Dongen, Loon op Zand, Tilburg, Gilze en Rijen, Goirle en Geertruidenberg, alsmede het Ruimte voor de rivier project Overdiepse Polder, cultuurhistorie en het regionaal archief. Er bij is gekomen de uitvoeringprojecten primaire keringen. Dat zijn de komende dijkverbeteringen langs de Maas, Bergse Maas het Hollands Diep en de Amertak. En voor zover het mijn projecten en taken betreft: duurzaamheid, innovatie en klimaatadaptatie. Vooral ten aanzien van dat laatste ben ik blij dat de waterschapsinzet voor klimaatadaptatie de komende tientallen jaren zichtbaar zal gaan worden en dat ik daarmede een rol in mag spelen.
Voor de verder portefeuilleverdeling kijk eens op de website van het waterschap.

I do love the way you have presented this particular concern and it does indeed give us some fodder for consideration. Nonetheless, coming from just what I have witnessed, I really wish as other commentary pack on that people today continue to be on point and don’t get started on a soap box of the news of the day. Still, thank you for this superb point and though I do not concur with the idea in totality, I regard the perspective.

I believe that avoiding refined foods could be the first step to help lose weight. They can taste beneficial, but packaged foods have got very little nutritional value, making you take in more only to have enough energy to get over the day. Should you be constantly having these foods, changing to whole grains and other complex carbohydrates will help you have more power while feeding on less. Great blog post.
Pretty nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and wished to say that I’ve really enjoyed browsing your blog posts. After all I will be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again soon!

Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa?

Thanks for making me to get new ideas about computers. I also possess the belief that one of the best ways to keep your mobile computer in perfect condition is by using a hard plastic-type case, or maybe shell, that suits over the top of your computer. A lot of these protective gear are model precise since they are made to fit perfectly in the natural casing. You can buy these directly from the vendor, or via third party places if they are available for your mobile computer, however not all laptop will have a spend on the market. Again, thanks for your recommendations.

I learned more interesting things on this fat loss issue. Just one issue is that good nutrition is highly vital whenever dieting. A tremendous reduction in bad foods, sugary food, fried foods, sugary foods, beef, and bright flour products may be necessary. Having wastes bloodsuckers, and contaminants may prevent goals for fat-loss. While a number of drugs quickly solve the challenge, the horrible side effects are not worth it, plus they never offer you more than a temporary solution. It is just a known indisputable fact that 95 of fad diets fail. Many thanks for sharing your opinions on this web site.
One other issue is when you are in a situation where you do not possess a cosigner then you may want to try to make use of all of your federal funding options.
