Cost sharing policy for curb repair, escalating capital costs facing Police, Fire and EMS
By Andy Chappell-Dick
There were no expiring terms among Bluffton's six Council members, so the rancorous midterm elections last week brought no changes to our local government. This meeting's agenda contained no less than ten committee reports, seven articles of legislation, the usual items from administration and safety services, plus public comment. Citizens should know that our representatives dealt with the business before them quickly, respectfully and unanimously. The only thing failing in this democracy is the town's decrepit leaf collection machine, and they've got a bipartisan plan for that. (Forty pages of supporting documents for this meeting are attached. The agenda is pages 1-2; an index is listed below.)
