MOJO413 surely the $700 rent per year is a typo?, Heck you cannot rent that much space in a strip mall for $700 per year

Pubby I am sure you are aware that the Paulding.gov web site is being used to provide the citizens of Paulding County the notice as required by law of any public meeting and any special called meetings of The BOC, IBA And the Airport Authority. Among other things that the law may require Since this is the Government web site I am sure you will agree that the Special Called meeting of the Airport Board held on 10/24/2012 should have been posted on this web site whereby any citizen wishing to attend this special called meeting could attend I have provided you with the link that carries you to

I do not understand how the BOC can float this bond without a vote from the citizens Particularly since we have already voted not to fund the project on at least two occasions If they are such a stellar group of folks let them foot the expansion, I feel like the County has been taken to the cleaners by those NYC folks

You are correct words do make a difference That is why I say that the minutes should of at least had a copy of the lease agreement attached to the minutes, I have looked at a lot of Minutes from the BOC and they always had attachments to the agenda and minutes to items of this nature I asked that you post the agenda and minutes,Is there some reason you refused. You do know that at some point in time I will post a lot more on this issue if you will not, Heck Pubby be open with the readers. post the agenda and minutes for all to see.

I could really care less if they meet at 2:00 AM as long as they complied with the laws of the state of Georgia that applys to the open meeting law.I really question if this has occured. The agenda indicates to me that it was posted on 10/24/2012 if that is accurate I am afraid they did not comply with the law We shall see?

Nice green which one of my buddies are you speaking of in your post? I am of the opinion that we elected these people to be open and transparent and to conduct the business of the county in a open and transparent manner consistant with the laws that govern such meetings. I am of the opinion that this did not occur on 10/24/2012 and intend to do whatever is necessary to find out the truth. To me and a lot of other folks I have spoken with they are of the same opinion. Of course you have a right to your opinion and you have the right to defend the TOP ELECTED OFFICIALS in this matter

Pubby, Nice green I am quite surprised that ya’ll are being that defensive about this Special called meeting, In the dead of the night. Two factors come into play here First I am sure you are aware that these meetings At the AA , as well as other public meetings were being taped by a private citizen on a regular basis Also the reporter for the neighbor news paper regularly attends this meeting as well as all other meetings and provides taped information to the public. Since the meeting agenda does not have a date as to when it was actually posted for the public to see I have to assume

You seem to know a lot about the bolded item, Can you say what they inquired about to the pastor?

You are correct I have not heard anyone say anything bad about the meeting, It was a good informative meeting. Heck since Pubby got a copy of the power point presentation at least he has calmed down a bit

I am very thankful that my health is finally getting better. We have been friends since 2006 and you will remain my friend regardless of which side you take on the airport. I will leave you with one thought If Jerry Shearin had been a part of the meeting on Oct 24, 2012 where would you be on this issue? Glad to hear that your blind dog is still kicking.

Keep in mind that it is bad news for a majority of citizens, This will show up in the polls next election. How could anyone be aware of this meeting to get up and film it? Oh ........ Almost forgot congrats on being appointed to the PBA Board of Directors

The reason I asked was I cannot find a link to the AA site that list the agenda and minutes

I am sure by now most folks have realized that the Special called meeting held on October 24, 2012 at 7:00 AM was scheduled In order to reduce or prevent citizen participation at this meeting, And to prevent the Post #2 Commisioner from attendingthis meeting Lets put this meeting in the proper context, This meeting was attended by the top elected and appointed leadership in Paulding County The mayor of Hiram Doris Devey The Mayor of Dallas Boyd Austin The Chairman of the County Commissioners David Austin, Post # 1 Commissioner David Carmichael President of the Chamber of Commerce Car

LPPT was a E-mail sent to pastor Dunn? if so will you post it? Do you have any idea what Tommie Graham and David Austin spoke to Pastor Dunn about? Do you have a link to the site that shows the IBA loan to the AA

Is holding a called meeting At 7:00 AM on the Airport acceptable to you?

It may seen wrong but you do know that many churches in Paulding County are used to provide services for the community such as Using them for a polling place.Case in point are the two large churches in Down Town Dallas where both of the Austin boys attend. Lucky64 regardless of what you may have heard or read this was a small group of concerned citizens who are attempting to start a grass roots movement to make all citizens aware of what they know about the airport, Meeting rooms cost a lot of money to rent and to be honest this group has a limited amount of Dollars. This was not a politi

Pubby I have on many occasion in the past obtained minutes from the BOC meetings and the record will reflect that Previous BOC meetings when Jerry Shearin was Commission Chairman many of the old archived minutes do in fact have addendums to them. True minutes do not have to be verbatim, But when a hand out is given to the elected and appointed officials like Blake Swafford did at that meeting then that should of been included as an appendix of that meeting. Hell minutes of a meeting should reflect what was done at the meeting, Furthermore the agenda should reflect what the meeting was abou

According to the minutes that I have a copy of Boyd Austin made a motion to approve the lease with Silver Comet Parteners LLC and Dave Carmichael Gave a second. All voted to approve. So you are correct we do not have a lease with Propeller This meeting was held on 10/24/ 2012 At 7:00 AM in the morning

Jamie Are you trying to mislead the readers? The minutes of that meeting are very deceptive, Fact is the timing of that meeting does not indicate to me that the elected and appointed officials were operating in manner that would be consist ant with the intent of the open meeting law, Are you aware that the entire deal was consummated in a special called meeting that was held in the still of the night at 7:00 am On October 24, 2012 ???If you are aware of this then you have lost a lot of credibility with the citizens of Paulding County Yes it was public, B ut………….You are aware that m

Will you please give BB a copy of the e-mail that would satisfy her curiosity. This meeting was handled in the same manner that the town hall meeting that David Austin held at the courthouse complex right after he took office. A presentation was made a short break was taken so that attendees could jot there questions down on a card provided and answers were given to most questions. EXACTLY THE SAME WAY THAT DAVID AUSTIN CONDUCTED HIS TOWN HALL MEETING. Heck all this can be resolved easily, Have Chairman Austin and the rest of the commissioners hold a town hall meeting and each of

Mr. Graham shame on you, You owe the citizens of Paulding county an apology>

picky picky picky,Not going to work on this group BB All citizens were invited to this open transparent meeting, Robo calls were even made and I can assure you that more citizens were aware of this meeting than was aware of the Oct.24, 2012 meeting of the Airport Authority when the citizens were sold down the river by this adminstration.

I can assure you that if any elected official wanted to address that group they would of been allowed to do so, It was a well moderated civil meeting and well prepared local citizens did the speaking. The crowd was three to four times larger that those at the Chamber Luncheon.

You or LPPT had the opportunity to attend,Ya'll chose not to. If you want to attend a one sided meeting look at the Chamber meeting now that was onesided. I personally thought it was a well attended meeting,and some useful information was made available. Regardless of what you have been fed by the pro airport group this is a well organized grass roots group, that has no ties to the Delta Airlines Corporation. Heck just ask the person that was representing the Chamber she was there. For those that could not or did not attend you missed a well organized meeting that was non partis

Because Our elite representives voted to give them the tax break on jet fuel
