when pigs fly

I would have to check to make sure but don't believe there's been a new trailer park here in about 30 years.

Four of the five current commissioners are from the housing industry.

There is no question that Todd did not know. The question of what would he have done had he known is irrelevant and an attempt to spin the focus away from the true problem with this administration.. a self-proclaimed elite group who do what they want, when they want it and believe they are above question. This airport controversy has opened eyes and election time will tell.

Pubby, I'm also sure that the commissioners knew what was coming when this was announced. They should have been prepared to make a public statement immediately stating that although there were many unknowns, they felt it to be a good thing and why. The facts that are available have only been presented through open records requests and the digging for information by others both pro and con. Yes, if it took a rolling board, advertisements in every news publication in the county and several days of their time for town hall meetings, that is what they should have done to explain as soon as t

BB, since you are so confident that these guys are doing what is best for this county, could you please give a good reason why they still refuse to let the public in on details? This would calm much of the controversy yet they continue to keep it brewing.

Statement from Calvin Thompson, Chairman of the Paulding Northwest Atlanta Airport Authority December 13, 2013 at 8:57am Over the last few weeks, there have been a lot of statements made in public and online regarding a 2004 video where I discussed the future of commercial and general aviation services at Paulding Northwest Atlanta Airport. Many of these statements have no truth to them, and some have actually been very hurtful to me and my family. I want to take a moment to set the record straight on not only this video, but the entire process regarding the development of Silver Come

NG, what is ridiculous is your insistence that this is just your every day decision by these commissioners. Yes the citizens should be included in a decision of this magnitude and the details explained thoroughly in whatever manner it takes.

Differences of opinion do make the world go round BUT it is very hypocritical when one side is criticized for doing exactly the same thing as the other. Be it handing out flyers at a captive parade (a large group) or to captive citizens (a smaller group) trying to do business at a courthouse, it is all the same. There is a lot of misleading all around. Why not spend this valuable energy on both sides by trying to influence the leaders to do the right thing and speak to the people with true facts!

Whether you are for or against the changes at the airport, many agree that these commissioners have stepped in it and they have stepped deep. I am hearing great frustration on both sides of the issue. The refusal to provide information this late in the game and handle this professionally and respectfully has been unnecessary and questionable. This is an opportunity that could or could not be good for our county but their continued pompousness has only served to taint the project and harm all the taxpayers. Come down off those high horses and do the job that you promised to the

There is no comparison to this at all. Of course that would have been inappropriate, although had he done that, you'd have been spouting his graciousness on getting the word out to the peasants.

He actually said this? I'm quite sick of being looked at as an ignorant peon by these guys.

Yet you are qualified to judge the charitable contributions of those standing up for what they believe in? Geez, BB. The sanctimonious attitude is getting quite old.. Handing out flyers for information and businesses is nothing new at this parade.

This was a brilliant idea. I've always enjoyed sitting, walking or trying to listen to a concert on the side of a busy 4 lane highway with the breeze from the 18 wheelers blowing through my hair. A 3.65 million dollar park with a concert ampitheatre next to the 4 lane. These folks are geniuses I tell you.
