PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS
The first two weeks of my administration have been both exciting and eventful: thanks to the coordination of the West administration and the help of renominated secretaries, we were able to ensure a smooth transition for our government. I’ve regularly discussed department goals with our new secretaries, Dusty_3, 218218Consumer, Sicspoti, and Milkcrack, to ensure they had the support they needed in an entirely new role, and I’ve also communicated regularly with renominated secretaries to ensure that their departments were running smoothly.
Work has begun immediately on creating a business district for new players: with this, we hope to guarantee potential entrepreneurs in Redmont a means to make money, create jobs, and most importantly, have fun on the server. While plot negotiations were expensive and time consuming, with enough land now available for the business district, we hope to have it completed and pasted in soon.
Progress on a National Park of Redmont has been excellent; the DER and DCT Secretary have worked well together in discussing plans for the park, and with such a level of coordination between the departments, I expect nothing less than an excellent result for a large, natural expanse and symbol of server culture.
The administration has faced some controversy over the delay of the signage of the byeSprite election bill. However, I hope that with the ultimate passage of the amendment, disputes between Congress and the cabinet will lessen. Ultimately, the best way to bring results to the people of Redmont is to come together and move forward in a positive direction, as coordination over politics is our responsibility as elected officials.
In general, I have been very pleased with the effective work of my secretaries in rolling out the various initiatives of my administration. While our objectives are numerous, the Krix administration has been effective in their completion, especially due to our hard working cabinet. Although we were off to a rocky start, I have no doubt that much will get done over the next three months.
Signed,
Krix
President

TOWNS
The town of Oakridge held its second town council elections, utilizing a system of voter registration in which only residents or renters of property within Oakridge could vote, a process that was meticulously overseen by Mayor Zab. The local government also passed its second constitutional amendment, the right to bear arms, guaranteeing all citizens within the town the right to own and sell weapons other than those defined as 'MAD' by the city of Hamilton.
The town of Willow has been preparing its tier 2 expansion, and it expects to hold town council elections, open to all players on the server due to the limited population of Willow, shortly afterward. The expansion is expected to bring notable growth in both Willow's population and the number of stores available in the rustic town.

Department Update: Throughout the month of February, the Department of Education and Commerce has diligently this month to develop its forum and roll out ongoing department objectives. Its forum has been reorganized to simplify the process of business registration, billboards, and licenses. In addition, the department has continued work on a forum thread for the Average Price Index for the purpose of providing players with information on the fair pricing of goods, and economists are now working on developing an average price index for plots. As usual, the department released business rankings in a timely manner, and efficiency has continued in the swift acceptance of the myriad of new businesses and unions on the restructured forum.

Department Update: The Department of Construction and Transport has transitioned well after the introduction of a new secretary, immediately beginning progress on a new player business district during the month of February. The president personally worked with the department to finish negotiations for plot purchases for the new district, and the DCT has already finished planning for the new district in accordance with the recently bought land. At the end of the month, the DCT began the reorganization of plots for a new train station and a central park at spawn while doing all that was possible to properly compensate those who lost their land. The department also finished a new cruise ship for donators. The DCT also hired two constructors this month and hopes to hire more.

Department Update: The Department of State immediately began introductory audits at the start of Krix’s term, evaluating department goals and developing a framework of objectives for secretaries to complete by March. The DOS also began discussion and planning with Mayor Zab on the establishing president’s county proposal for towns in Oakridge. During February, the State Department also finished the forms for the election of department stewards, or representatives of the concerns of government employees, and began communication with secretaries on announcing them. The DOS helicopter was also transferred to the DOJ, as the State Secretary believed that it would be put to better use by the police.

Department Update: The Department of Justice began this month with a massive recruitment effort, holding the goal of having 30 police officers by the first week of March. While concerns have been raised about training the significantly enlarged police force, there is no doubt that the DOJ now has a sufficiently sized field of officers. In addition, the Secretary of Justice is working on creating a social media account for the department. There has also been a new role introduced in the DOJ, Senior Constable. The Secretary has also updated trainee guides to ensure that trainees are provided proper information regarding protocol.

The DOH has established training groups for doctors, whom medical specialists will supervise and provide advice to. The DOH has also created two new leadership positions, Head Medical Specialist and Head Paramedic, who will assist the Secretary in ensuring that department employees are working efficiently. The DOH has also implemented a 3 warning system in which doctors of little activity will be fired after several infractions of not attending.

Department Update: This month, the DER has made significant progress on building the national park, having laid out plans for coordination with the DCT on both landscaping and several buildings within the park. The department has also made effective use of its new animal shelter built by the DCT, and its rangers have remained vigilant in facilitating the adoption and care of stray animals. Department leadership has also discussed the establishment of a park trooper position to maintain the park, enforce its rules, provide tours, and help landscape. Finally, the DER's senior rangers have been working on decorating a park in southern Hamilton's commercial area, adding plant life and color to what was previously a very barren plot of land.
