[Durham INC] Need speakers at BOCC meeting TONIGHT

[Melissa Rooney]

The temporary restraining order preventing the county commissioners from voting to extend sewer to the controversial 751 South project was denied today.

If you are anywhere near the city center tonight, please consider stopping by the Board of County Commissioners meeting and signing up to say a few words about the ridiculousness of them even considering extending sewer to this development...or at least to delay action until the completion of the court case regarding their improper handling of the protest petition that should have invalidated the rezoning for this project a year ago. The city has voted to postpone action until the citizens have had their day in court...why is the county in such a rush? Furthermore, all staff has recommended denial of sewer services to this development -- this means the county manager/engineer/everyone but the 3 commissioners who seem hell-bent (for whatever reasons) on making this development happen. 

Thanks for attending and making your concerns known.
And please don't forget the actions of these three county commissioners when the elections come around. Gov't officials who so blatantly ignore (no, step on) their constituency(ies) should be voted out of office.

Sincerely,
Melissa Rooney
