Mr Commissioner, tear down this wall!

Once again lots of big spending at the county commission meeting.
And once again, the votes of the spenders are hidden from the voters.
The wall of secrecy sure isn't for our benefit.
When commissioners vote in committee, EVERY vote they make to spend your money hides who voted for what.
Just a notation "motion passed" or "motion failed" (a VERY rare occurrence).
What do they have to hide?
Lots!
Scolnik, Engle, Mahoney, Plummer and Longmeyer just voted for free laptops for commissioners. The vote failed but their votes won't be public or added to the minutes because the board doesn't allow committee it.
You think they'd be proud...yeah right.....
Call your commissioner and demand they tell us how they voted!
