Invite friends who may show intere st in supporting this board.
\nI am writing to seek your help and su pport for our County Board. There is an active group of people attending the county monthly board meetings who are agitators and disrupters and are preventing the board from doing the governing of the county. These group s like\, Moms for liberty\, Three headed Eagle\, Warriors among others wan t to keep government small and not spend money on any services EVER. They were successful in making enough noise to keep the board from voting for a badly needed tax levy for county services. They are winning the battle b y just showing up! The county will run out of reserves in two years and wi ll struggle to maintain the services we have come to expect in our beautif ul community.
\nThere are new concerns and issues that need addressi ng but this group of people are at every meeting to make sure not one dime is spent. There has not been any opposing perspectives from the public a nd the board is inclined to listen to the loudest voices. We would like to build a bench of volunteers to help support our county board members. W hat do we need from you?
\nIf you or someone you know could:
\n\nThe board and various subcommittees meet 4 or 5 time s a month. The meetings are during the mornings/day so it requires individ uals who have weekday flexibility.
\nWe will hold a meeting of those interested in hearing more about what the County Board’s issues are and w hat they are proposing and strategies to support them ongoing.
