Drum roll please: 3 acre division public hearing

The public hearing is about to begin on Supervisor Emmitt Marshall’s proposal to allow people to divide agricultural land into 3 acre lots once a year for a max of 10 in a lifetime.

And, I have to say, people do read the paper I guess. It has not been this packed in the county board room since they saved a battlefield on my first week on the job here in November 2006. I am not sure there is a seat left in here. If all of these folks speak, I am going to be up all night. Holy moly. 

I wonder what will happen. The meeting is now underway.  I doubt the results will make it into the newspaper because I have a real tight deadline so check this blog for the final results. I will do a full review of the meeting tonight on the blog if I cannot meet deadline.
