Solely blaming Bradshaw is false narrative

| August 31, 2023 1:00 AM

Blaming County Commissioner Bradshaw for many things that happen in or during the Board of County Commission meetings is totally false.

Keeping and establishing order during meetings and following Robert's Rule of Order is the rule of law. Having a discussion openly with another commissioner during an open forum and disputing it openly is totally incorrect. When this happens, it is total chaos. Arguing between the three commissioners is entirely unprofessional, especially in an open meeting. It needs to stop.

As far as I can see, people in an open forum do not realize or never research the problem properly. They only raise their voices to gain notoriety. There are many things on the agenda that do happen in the area of the Bonner County commissioners that the general public does not understand or want to understand, so it seems. A possible solution is to employ a sergeant-at-arms to attend all rough and rowdy BOCC meetings. I am a retired command sergeant major of the United States Army with 32 1/2 years of active military service. Basically, I know what goes on behind the scenes.
