298-Part 2

At tonight’s Forks Township Zoning Hearing Board meeting, the Planning and Zoning expert appearing for the appellants regarding zoning ordinance #298 testified.

We would like to offer you a detailed recap of what occurred, but we are unable to do so clearly.

The appellants in attendance tonight sat directly behind counsel and the witness. In the row behind the appellants, there was a very discourteous person who kept making comments throughout the proceeding. When one of the appellants said, “shush”, the impolite person said, “shut up.”

Imagine our surprise when we turned around to see who would behave in such an uncivil manner and we discovered that this was none other than township supervisor C. David Howell.

Is this any way for an elected official to conduct himself at an official township meeting and a proper way to treat the citizens whom he claims to represent?
