She doesn't owe you an explanation about a vote she never made, but I still thought she gave a decent answer anyway by saying she had not gotten enough information on the subject to be able to say how she would have voted, but that it have been a vote in the community's best interest. She also explained she was with her mother who was ill. If you can't accept it and move on then we can see your true colors.
Kurt, trust me, she received
PLENTY of information all through the RFV ordeal. She had as much information as Sara Comander did up to the day of the vote. And Ms. Comander had the courage and fortitude to oppose the access as well as the good ole boys.
And I'll repeat myself again...I don't care why Ms. Meadows missed the vote. That was not the point nor the question.
What is in the "community's best interest" as seen by Cindy Meadows? Even my arch nemisis, AndyA
, agrees the whole thing was a "bad, bad mistake".
I don't think it is asking too much from one's own commissioner to find out where they stood on such an important vote... kind of like an exit poll. For her to say she did not receive enough information to make a decision clearly speaks for itself.
Some people say RFV is past history (agree) and that it shouldn't matter (disagree). How else will the county do the "right thing" in the future when even one's commissioner who's disctrict this occurred in can not even take stand in this very very important issue and possibly influence similar future votes.
Kurt, those are my true colors...the fact that I don't want to see this RFV debacle happen again in someone else's backyard.
As everyone knows, forget the past and it will certainly repeat itself.
