What are the perks for Scott Davis' appointment to the Public Building Authority?

He's made a lot of money off development deals wherein the county has gone out and acquired property, for which the use/need is dubious at best.

Ragsdale must be wanted to test his muscles to see if he can get somebody appointed to something. In my mind, in this community, being a fried of Mike Ragsdale is to lower yourself and sully yourself with his spendthrift ways and disregard all rules and then appologize, make excuses, and blame somebody else. County Commission should view any appointee brought by Ragsdale with a jaundiced eye.

I have been watching this joint committee meeting of the County Commission and been struck with the fact that they are doing exactly what we have wanted for an open meeting. It is functioning as a workshop with all the commissioners working their way through the appointment process. I can see some commissioners pet concerns coming up, but I cannot see where there was any conspiring prior to this meeting. But it will be a long and tedious meeting.

And I want to thank Lumpy for attacking Mark Harmon and Chairman Leuthold having to break up the fight with a blow of the gavel! That is the kind of drama we expect of this group.
