I am unable to attend tonight’s County Commissioners meeting. Maybe someone else will attend and provide their view of what happens.
The water board also meets tonight. If you have not attended a meeting when the Commissioners recess their meeting then open the water board, you have missed one of the better dances of elected representatives. The commissioners are also the water board. This is similar to having the same people in the house and the senate. It assures those with the real power that any decision made by one body will be approved by the other and prevents any semblance of real representative democracy. Tonight the water board will approve the low bidder to put the water pipe in the front yards of those in section 1A. The water board will also approve the low bidder to operate and maintain the water in that pipe. This will finally get the consumer’s price of water out in the open.
Maybe we can read later tonight on HiH what someone else reports happens tonight at the commissioners’ meeting, especially the real cost of county wide water.
