Commentary-Heritage Park Project could be a line in the sand

This Wednesday’s County Commission meeting could be a turning point. A public hearing is scheduled on the Heritage Park project, pushed through by a previous commission, one of whose members owns part of the land involved. But this current commission has made it clear: all taxes are bad, and anything that can be defunded should be. The truth is, many behind this commission oppose nearly anything that could benefit our community. Their attitude has left county employees fearing for their jobs — and in some cases, their safety. Is this what you voted for? A Commission that rules by fear and self-interest, not the future of White Pine County? I urge you to learn about the Heritage Park Project at kely1230.com and either attend Wednesday’s meeting or submit your comments to the County Clerk. Make your voice heard. And if you're not afraid, you can contact me here at the station.
