    Water drains off highway 4, down county right of way, down my drivr way washing it out as it flows into my yard.. KEVIN WHITE won’t come by to discuss any assistace to try and repair this. I have spent several hundred dollars on this problem.

    One of the trick of the trade, divide and concur. New election rules favor the incumbent That doesn’t even have to get a majority now…. How Sad ;9(

    They won’t be unless they tell us what they intend to do and how they intend to comply with the county charter and state constitution.

    We must demand from them accountability and continually monitor them; keep the pressure on.
