Excellent article about the Board of Supervisors of SLO County (“Together, going it alone,” April 24). They are often split 3 to 2 in their vote. The three vote often ignores staff and Planning Commission recommendations. The three vote is typically in favor of “developers.”
Compliments to Patrick Howe in researching it and New Times for printing it. An informed citizenry is the strength of a democracy.
