  1. I bet Senator Heath can get us the law that allowed the AA to make this deal, as well as a copy of the actual deal. The open records law has to apply in this case. HMMMM????
  2. I agree only about 90% are opposed to this deal, The other 10% probably stand to make some $$$$$
  3. Rest assured it will come out that guy does not care who he uses and then discards
  4. You never did say who got you to call out Todd Pownall at the last commissioners meeting ??
  5. Pubby This is not my first rodeo...... You and others know full well where this can lead to. If the FAA grants rights to commercial service and Delta buys into the scheme then the entire airport area will explode with expansion and the 10,000 acres that the city of Atlanta owns will be used to expand the existing airport and the air rights around our airport There is no way a venture capitalist is going to throw millions at a project without some reasonable idea of success. Gwinnett County saw the problems, Some of our money greedy politicians sneak around and attempt to convince th
  6. Pubby Out here in the real world Paulding County Citizens do not want Commercial Passenger flights out of our airport period. Of all the discussion that I ever recall at no time have I ever heard any discussion about commercial passenger service. And believe it or not none of the present commissioners ever mentioned in my presence anything about this type service. I am of the same opinion as other posters, If, it is such a grand deal then why did the Commissioners not discuss the plan at the past meeting? Heck they passed the agenda item to provide for the funding for the IBA to implement
  7. Pubby I agree to a certain extent that there are some politics involved in this issue. I have been doing some thinking though and asked myself how many of the present commissioners would of been elected to their current office if they had campaigned on the issue of starting commericial passenger service from our airport??? Really!!!! Pure and simple fact is not the first one would be sitting on the board today if they had ran on that pledge. Fact is right the opposite Particular when the Commission Chairman and post 2 and 4 commissioners were first elected. Nothing has changed th
  8. I am not so sure that this is bad information, I know that he voted on many items while serving eight years on the AA. When exactly did he resign After the election or when he took office?
  9. I believe that Todd was kept in the dark on this until the news broke on the evening news. I know Todd well enough to know that if he had any idea of this hapening he would of persued it further. To think anything different is foolish thoughts
  10. I was very high on David Austin I was also very High on David Barnette, Tommy Graham And Todd Pownall I campaigned hard for all four of them during their respective campaigns and still believe that they have the ability to do a good job for the people of Paulding County. I remember one of the first meetings that I attended in which David Austin chaired, It was a town Hall type meeting held in the lower level of the Administration Building And this room was packed and tension was running high at this meeting because the issues being discussed was a millage rate increase for the County And
  11. LPPT you may like for your tax dollars spent for economic developement. I can assure you that a vast majority of Paulding County residents do not.... Take a little poll in your hood and ask your neighbors how they feel about the issue and then let me know how they feel. I took a little poll myself today in my hood and a local eating establishment, and was amazed at the numbers of people who were opposed to the commercial flights from this airport. You have been inside the bubble too long with Jamie to realize that you are outside the mainstream of folks here in Paulding County, Dare you and
  12. I was at the Commissioners meeting this past Tuesday when someone ( Got a good idea who) tried to frame Todd, It did not work then and will not work now. Todd Pownall faced his accusers face to face on the commissiners podium and refuted what he had been accused of. I know all of the commissioners and I can assure you if Todd Pownall was not speaking the truth then they would of defended themselves. Todd Pownall is a honest truthful commissioner and I believe what he said

  14. LPPT this is really not a factual statement and you know it,Some served on the Airport Board before they ever became a Commissioner And was in on the ground floor of cramming the airport down our throats, And spread the big lies of not costing the citizens of this county a red cent Shame on you for mis leading the readers
  15. I stand firm in my opposition to Commercial passenger service being started at the Paulding County Airport. This was never the intentions that I was aware of and never heard of this until a couple of weeks ago. I suppose you were not here when the City of Atlanta purchased all the land around the airport and still own this land and had plans to build a second airport here. This is the next step to the second airport, I do not want Paulding County to be like Clayton County. Do you? If passenger service is approved here we will be the next Clayton County. If only a handful of citizens are o
  16. I hope that I have more than one more in me. I know that you and I agree on politics more than we disagree and we certainly have been involved in some political discussions In the past. In another thread today I saw where you blasted another poster when they questioned the honesty and integrity of David Carmichael who happens to be my Post commissioner. I do agree that Mr. Carmichael is a good person, and is well respected in this County, However I question my Post Commissioner’s intentions ( David Carmichael) as in relates to the secret that he kept in regards to the deal with Propeller
  17. I agree Todd was being set up by someone, Not sure who it was that did it almost had to be a Commissioner. Shame on who it was. Good seeing you.
  18. The second speaker (Susan) really nailed the feeling of the majority of those that were present at the meeting. Good to see you again
  19. I am not quite sure what meeting Animal is referring too, But, I thought Todd answered the question to a tee even stated the amount of money that he gave back to the County ($32,800) Todd also eloborated on when he first became aware of the deal on the airport And had the information available which NO ONE refuted. Animal..... You need to be fair and honest about this who put you up to attacking Todd? Was it some of the other Commissioners ?? For the record Animal asked to speak to the commissioners under the following pretense "Pre-Election promises" which was stated on the writte
  20. Pubby Thanks for having P.Com and congratulations for the success. From my very first post, until today I have enjoyed reading and making post on this site. I have also made many new friends and some enemies over the political battles we have had on P.com which I enjoyed very much. I do not post much now but I do read the post everyday and enjoy them immensely. Keep up the good work and I hope p.com has many more years of dedicated service that will make Paulding County a better place to live work and play That was a lot of fun!!! One of my favorites also
