Dear Editor:
With a decision looming on the fate of the old jail and sheriff's residence, we have asked the county commission to hold a night meeting including a public hearing, to fully inform the public of the options before them and to allow for maximum public input. Right now the commission is slated to meet during the business day, when most of their constituents are unable to be present.
In a recent meeting, Presiding Commissioner Marc Ellinger is reported to have said that those who are working to save the old jail and sheriff's residence are "uninformed people, coming out of the woodwork." I can assure you that we are better informed than some may think, but that we would be much better informed if the county commission would open up its meetings and allow maximum participation.
We urge the commission to delay its decision, to hold a special night meeting to fully vet this issue to allow "we, the people," to express our opinions before this important decision is made.
