Thoughts on the Happy Creek Stop Order

Oh, boy! Isn’t this miscommunication between County and Town getting a little tiresome?

It’s almost like two bullies on the playground; they both want to control the playground!

Doesn’t the County want the Happy Creek region to have flood control? Doesn’t the Town know that to do work or changes to any projects that all their ducks have to be in a row?

You would think by now our elected officials would want to work and play fair with each other, for the betterment of both Town and County.

But no, us citizens have to wait on the sidelines while Town and County battle it out on the playground! Henceforth, Afton Inn sits as a eyesore, and Happy Creek looks like a bad haircut.
