Dr. B,

I agree we pay more in total for local control. Personally I think that is best. If local P&Z is given up, and you care about a neighbors project, you will have to spend more money and time to attend meetings elsewhere.

Please remember what happened to the school district residents in Tower/Soudan, Cook and Orr. They gave up local control of education to save money, and hoped to get better teachers. What they got was loss of local control, loss of their schools, and higher taxes. My point is, when you give up local control you get what the bigger government wants to give you.

Why don't you run for Supervisor and make changes from inside the system.

You noticed I didn't get to vote. I was registered, but the county took me off the rolls. Just goes to show what you get....left off. Minnesota is my home. My home is in Greenwood Township. My drivers license has the correct local address. I got shafted. Of course my one vote didn't matter on Tuesday.
