    PAY ATTENTION WHEN VOTING! This is exactly why electing long time knowledgeable locals IS the best practice.

    I don’t know for sure, but looks like more clueless transplants that wormed their way into a county government. Then making unconscionable decisions, when knowing nothing about the most important historical best practices to keep the county and it’s people safe.
