... Columbia County stands on a precipice of that slippery slope where unbridled growth takes a turn and becomes nothing less than a nightmare. The upcoming county commission elections provide a clear choice for us to put a voice of experience and sanity on the county commission.
District 3 candidate Deanne Hall has worked tirelessly as a member of the Planning and Zoning commission to represent the interests of concerned citizens during a time when zoning requests streamed in from a myriad of sources, all desiring to get on board the fast-moving train of prosperous growth. Hall did a marvelous job of navigating through those requests to give equal consideration for everyone, citizens and developers alike.
Those who have watched Hall work know where her heart is. Those of you who have not had that privilege should take the time right now to research her past leadership. When you do, I know that you will enthusiastically support Hall as she attempts to serve us in a higher capacity as District 3 Commissioner.
Hall has the steady hand, perseverance and experience to do us all proud. But don't take my word for it; educate yourself and then vote for Deanne Hall in the Tuesday Primary election.
