It’s interesting that the county code requires “A” public hearing – and they had one, just one, before 4/28. But they chose NOT to have another public hearing on the night they were to vote. One does wonder about the compelling force behind that decision! Tired of working on it, out of ideas? Gee the citizens had many ideas, just not the ones the county wanted.
