Keep courthouse doors open
Closing the doors on the historic courthouse is absolutely ridiculous. The county commissioners can’t possibly say that they cannot afford to install new security for the district attorney and therefore must close the doors to the courthouse.
The county spends money on everything else, millions of dollars such as the airport. The county was reassessed, there is gas money, they sold the county health center, so there is no reason they can’t spend $4,000 to secure the district attorney’s office and leave the security at the main doors of our beautiful historical courthouse.
It may well be time to rethink our county commissioners at election time. I’m sad to say they have been the three I have supported.
