'Friendlier' commission fails to deliver on promise

Today, April 19, I attempted to ask a question at the county commissioners meeting. I felt excluded from the local governmental process. When the new commissioners were sworn in January, we were promised a more open, friendly attitude and that questions were welcomed and encouraged. The first meeting held by the new commissioners was exactly that.

Now, I find the answer to my question readily answered by Mr. Keyes. Maybe he could hold a few classes on civility and openness for the commissioners to follow.
