Mosquito Commissioners Up from 3 to 5?

Recently, I learned that the Mosquito Control District Commissioners would be increasing in number from 3 to 5. It seems odd that in a time of so much budget slashing, we'd be adding Commissioners.

I couldn't find much online to explain the decision beyond this document -- http://www.co.walton.fl.us/administration/CommissionMeetings/januarytwentyseven/e.pdf I can't find anything that addresses the reasoning.

Does anyone else know anything about this? Why it is necessary?

The last time I attended one of your meetings, our questions were NOT answered, as you cut us short, and our questions could not be asked. Have things suddenly changed?

I haven't seen any change at SWMC, however, do you really want answers, or do you just want to argue? If you really want answers, then do your research, and come up with facts and figures supporting your position.

If increasing the board will guarantee positive action, I suppose it is necessary. I'm not sure that it will, however. It may just create a larger stalemate.
