Why Is Colbert County Agin Everything?

We've certainly seen the new Florence hospital many times travelling north on Singing River Bridge, but until the other day, we'd never really seen it. We'll have to thank the new roundabout for making us travel east on Veterans Drive to make a meeting on time.

We topped a hill, and there it was. It appeared to hang low in the sky like Shangri la. To say it's a thing of beauty is quite the understatement. Yet, Florence almost didn't have this wonder. We still wouldn't if Colbert County had its way. The powers that be were agin it.

They've been agin several new Colbert County Jail concepts as well. Now they're agin any increased funding of the county animal shelter. Is there anything the Colbert County Commission is actually for?

That is, not counting re-election?
