How is this even allowed? It is entirely inappropriate for the current MOCO county planning director to post opinion articles for a 501(c)(4) nonprofit that conducts political advocacy related to zoning and land use! He is employed by MOCO (not GGW) to make important zoning and development decisions about the county. This is very unprofessional, and it raises legitimate questions about the credibility of his recommendations and whether he is acting with the interests of county residents in mind. [/quote]
It’s extremely inappropriate for them to coordinate with a registered lobbying organization to promote their plan. Unfortunately the the long history of ethics problems in Planning continue and will continue until MNCPPC is dissolved.

We know that they don’t really care about what residents think, but emailing the council to let them know your thoughts should be a priority.[/quote]

Please post email address here. Will gladly email.[/quote]
