Building the bridge between rural and urban interests is critical to the future of our precinct.
|
The local commissioner should be the bridge between
rural and urban residents in the precinct, working with the school
district, city officials and the county's resources to plan ahead for
population growth. Instead, the current commissioner tries to play
groups off against one another, is jealous of turf and credit, highly
partisan, and has alienated even staff members at the county and her
own Republican colleagues on the commissioners court.
The
question is not whether we're going to grow, but whether we're going to
grow with grace, whether we're going to preserve some of our special
character as we grow. To do that we have to do more than bury our heads
in the sand. We have to face the challenge and meet it head on.
