The Daily Times Fails To Properly Educate The Public Again

As usual, the Daily Times has done its poor job of covering this matter, (Post below). Today's article has nothing about the concern regarding John Cannon's situation and does not mention the data that was presented to the County Council last week that only 263 lots have been created in cluster subdivisions since the zoning code was changed to permit them in 1998 -- that's an 11 year period. And of course there's no mention that at least half of each subdivision consists of permanently preserved open space available for agricultural use. But these quotations appear: “We’re going to have to see how this all plays out,” Council President John Cannon said." "What Rick is waiting for is what comes to his desk,” said Pollitt’s spokesman Jim Fineran.

Now that's real leadership by out elected officials. NOT!

Joe, You need to stop expecting these people to do the right thing unless they're shamed or forced to. That way you won't be surprised or disappointed by them.
Keep the fire lit under them, please. You're our best hope.

As someone once said about our elected bozos and sharpies: "when they feel the heat they will see the light."
