Continued until April 1st due to time constraints. Which is pure BS. Where we moved here from, the city commission once met until 3 AM to finalize a significant issue.

If you are elected to lead, have the freaking guts to lead. Or quit.

A lot of people came from out of town or took time off work for the meeting, and are justifiably upset that they have to do so again.

At first glance it sounds like a weak turnout. 10,000+ signatures on a petition and only 300 present for the meeting. I admit I may be interpreting this wrong, but with only 3% of the signatories showing up it makes me question how strong the opposition really is.

So many people were expected that they had to find a bigger venue than normal and it was filled. A great turnout when you consider the meeting was held during the workday on a rainy Thursday in Miramar and most of the concerned population had to leave work hours early or travel from far away. My row was a combination of locals and second home owners from Georgia and Texas.

Exactly Right.

This is B.S.

Looking like typical BCC. And people wonder why some are thinking about Incorporation...

Many people who signed the petition live hours away, and driving to the meeting on a Thursday would mean missing two days of work.
