If you are as tired and angry as I am about the continued discussions, Committees, recommendations, press conferences, pronouncements etc. without considering the needs and wishes of Lakeland and other County residents, I encourage you to TAKE ACTION NOW!
Comments on the Shelby County Charter amendments may be made at the Shelby County Web Page www.ShelbyCountytn.gov, calling and/or e-mailing the County Commissioners and attending the Shelby County Commission/Charter Committee Public Hearings and stating your opinion!
Comments may also be sent in writing to:
Ad Hoc Committee on Shelby County Charter Amendments
Shelby County Board of Commissioners
160 North Main Street, Suite 450
Memphis, Tennessee 38103
The message is simple-We want to elect our County Sheriff as we do now, and we want the Sheriff to have the duties as proscribed by the Tennessee Constitution!
The Public Hearings are scheduled for:
6:30 *p.m., Thursday, January 31, 2008 at Arlington High School
6:30 *p.m., Monday, February 11, 2008 at the Bartlett Performing Arts Center.
It is important that all Lakeland residents contact the Shelby County Commissioners on this matter
*I was advised the Arlington Public Hearing was at 7:45 p.m.( with a 7:00 p.m. Reception), and the Bartlett Public Hearing was at 7:30 p.m. The Public Hearing Notice on Sunday, January 6 stated that "all Public Hearings are at 6:30 p.m.", so I am assuming this is correct, since the Pulbic Hearing notice is the official notice
Eleven other Public Hearings are scheduled. Interested citizens may attend any Public Hearing, but the preliminary rules of procedure limit any one preson to a single three minute presentatiion. For example, a resident could attend all 13 Public Hearings, but could still only make one oral presentation.
