Hello John,
 
Thank you for taking the time to read the Charter  before making decisions.  That seems to be a rare
instance.
 
Personally I like our Constitutional Republic as is  now the law, whether or not they follow it.  It seems to be the trend
these  days for the government to 'micro-manage ' the citizens.  If they are going  to insist upon taking our money, our assets, our time and our lives from us  without even a by-your-leave it seems to me appropriate for the citizens to 
require a 'contract' that limits what they can do without our  approval.
 
Regards,
Jaye

Hi Jaye,  
Thanks for sending me a copy of the proposed  County Charter.  I have read it through and appreciate the time and   thought that has gone into drawing it up.  I wish all citizens would take their government as seriously as you do.  You are to be commended for   your participation.  Having said that, I have serious reservations about the charter.  There are some   specifics that I would like to discuss with you, but my general concerns are   that the proposed
charter would make county government very unresponsive and   that it works against the sentiment of most people I talk to who are content   with the concept of a representative democracy.  The charter in many ways   almost
returns us to the time the Greeks first developed the concept of a   democracy when matters of government were put to a vote of the   citizens.  Over the years  that has, in all instances of which I am   aware, evolved to a representative
form of democracy in which matters of   government, within specified limits,  are turned over to elected   officials.--
 
Thanks again for all you have done and for sending me a copy of the proposed charter.
 John Sweet

Hello John,
 Thank you so very much for wanting to read what the proposed Charter actually says.
