Dr. B,
I was in AZ when you lost. I don't know you, and your name didn't stick in my mind. I am glad you ran. I happen to like Gene on multiple levels, but we always need people who care about trying to do better running.
I ran for State Senate in 1976. I lost to Skip Humphrey. I know about going door to door, fundraising and speaking to strangers, passion, and losing.
GWT is home in my heart. Arizona is just a place. I come back here in the middle of winter. This winter might have tried my soul a bit, had I been here throughout.
You make a good point about our supervisors not knowing everything. There are definitely things I would like to change. I am working within the system to try to accomplish change. In defense of the Board, there is no way they can know all. I am perplexed that the attorney didn't offer advice. Hindsight is always great.
The folks at the County level learn by doing also.
I have not read the findings of fact re Hatfield. What I do know is that the county and DNR thought the tradeoffs were more than adequate to allow the variance. Hatfield agreed to deed restrictions...a conservation easement...on about 1000 feet of shoreline as a trade off.
Frankly, I find greater fault with the other past approvals.
