EORC

==Sloth==
The EORC department champions such programs as Pittsburgh Works and others. Most of these efforts are limping into the future. For the past years, their impact for the benefit of community has been tiny. They are a low priority when it comes to Tom Murphy's dealings. 
The EORC deals with the employment of minorities and women within the city. It functions but is hardly implemented. With all the budget crisis matters they've been given short attention.
Three vacant positions are not filled. The director has been told to wait for the Act 47 budget position to pan out. The mayor's office says wait. Doing nothing is easy, as they are looking for stability, not the hiring of minorities. They have accepted applications and interviewed for the three open positions but won't hire. The will to govern is thin.
The 2002 budget (built after the 2001 election) called for an couple of larger RFPs so as to overhaul some of this department's reach and capacity. But, in 2003, that $300,000 was taken.
