Donna,
I am not on Smipkin Island, but the weather is stormy all over the county. Do you think it will hurt the pea crop?

I did not agree with the personall attack, but at least an apology was publicly delivered which shows a lot of honor on her part. As I publicly stated at the last commissioner meeting, I think a specific set of criteria should be developed to make the determination on what bridges would be rebuilt. As far as emergency service, the nearest fire station is on Turkey Point Road (Rt 272). The response time to the lower part of the road is not affected by whether this bridge is rebuilt or not. I think that every closed bridge should be rebuilt but it is a matter of funding and priority.

There was no question about the Firetower Road bridge, this is heavily traveled and it is also near the county transfer station. All five commissioners voted for the project, so it must have been a priority.

Not sure which property you are talking about but there were some properties that could have gone the other way, just a judgement call.

I would think she would want to live by the same standards that she applies to everyone else and that you would support that.
Where were you when she was making public accusations over the bridge that the EMS requested be replaced?

She’s the one that yells “Fire” every time someone doesn’t vote the way she wants. By the way, how’s the weather on Smipkin Island?
