Monday's Lauderdale Commission Meeting

It may rival a Cherokee Town Council Meeting, or it may just be a recitation of number crunching, but at this point we're urging everyone who possibly can to attend the Lauderdale County Commission meeting tomorrow morning. The meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. in room 301 of the courthouse.

From information provided by sources close to the current brouhaha over Lauderdale's EMA office and director, there will be continued discussion of George Grabryan's job performance. After an investigation spanning over two years, District 1 Commissioner Rhea Tays Fulmer shocked the audience two weeks ago by revealing Mr. Grabryan had lent traffic cones to an organization that provides driving instruction to various county emergency agencies. Yes, that was sarcasm.

At best the issue should be laid to rest tomorrow. At worst, we'll all get to see a witch a few days early.

From today's TimesDaily: (Tammy) Irons...said her record speaks for itself. We agree; a vote for Dr. Gerald Freeman is a vote for returning honesty to our State Senate.

A reader has forwarded a criticism of our blog. It seems a local Facebook member asked why we haven't addressed the proposed UNA land purchase from the City of Florence. In fact, we did comment on the issue in a previous blog: Link

The blog focused on two issues; neither of which we have an answer to as yet. Our Facebook critic may rest assured we will have updates on the issue.

Don't forget that this week marks the annual Ghost Walk downtown: Link
