Re Sunday News's Article on Commissioners' Violation of Sunshine Law #2

I asked myself that same question. But then again, EVERYTHING in county government is OR has the potential to be related to the convention center. Anyone in opposition or who asks questions is portrayed as a "know nothing" or a public nuisance. After all if LNP is doing it, it has to be right! They have been in Lancaster for so many years ... they want to save our city!!!!

What is kind of "funny" about this is the new commissioners made a BIG deal about bringing in this group and having a training time with the public invited to understand the Sun Shine Law. Just weeks after being informed, they didn't even know the guidelines for what the county code requires for a canceled meeting and rescheduling a meeting... a basic component of not breaking the Sun Shine Law.

Oh, it was an honest mistake? I thought these two ran as being qualified and knowledgeable of running county government.

I know two former commissioners who were directed by their then legal counsel, who had YEARS of experience, to be a part of a meeting, and were fined and publicly crucified for breaking the Sun Shine Law.

What is the difference???? Oh, that's it ... the new commissioners support the convention center!!!
