Showing their true colors

The BOCC showed their true colors June 21 when Commissioner Ryan Bell pulled a last minute, non-agenda item for the removal of Toni Collins from the Planning Commission. It was interesting how two commissioners, Chad Johnson and Danny Stevens, felt that it was Bell's district so he should be able to remove and replace as was his desire. 

It is interesting how when Commissioner Marsha Drew had an agenda item on this same topic to replace Mr. Thad Barber these same two commissioners felt she had no right to do this. In the request by Commissioner Drew, Mrs. Collins had made a loud verbal comment stating  to  Commissioner Drew, "Have you lived here long enough to be making decisions."

Now I wish no ill will to Ms. Collins but she had no idea what was about to happen Tuesday and no opportunity to express her desires. What this shows is poor judgement by Commissioner Bell.
