Commissioners clash on WJ EMS site location

Wednesday, December 21. 2011
In a 3-2 vote, the Jackson County Board of Commissioners agreed Monday night on a paving contract for the new EMS station in West Jackson, but the action didn’t come until the commissioners again disagreed on the location of the new station.

BOC chairman Hunter Bicknell and commissioners Chas Hardy and Bruce Yates voted in favor of the paving contract with E.R. Snell Contractor Inc. for $57,612 for the paving and curb and gutter work at the EMS station to be located at 332 Zion Church Road. Commissioners Tom Crow and Dwain Smith voted against the action.

Crow questioned the location of the new EMS station in West Jackson and said putting a facility in the Hwy. 124 area would serve more people.

Can this group grow up already, Tom Crow and Yates can stop grand standing because I sure won't vote for them as BOC chair.

Enough of this group..vote out incumbents and lets put 3 new faces on the BOC in 2012.

No more devolpers and good old boys whos daddy was somebody... stand on your own ground and not in our pockets.

Someone, please run against these people. It is time for the good ole boy network to be stopped.

And where in the heck are our tax dollars going anyway? We should demand the budget (which includes expenditures) be posted on their website monthly.
