Your County Commission has a jam-packed agenda on Wednesday morning.  They’ll hear once again from the grifters and carpetbaggers from the White Pine Pumped storage project in another attempt to put lipstick on their boondoggle of a pig.  The Commission is also going to consider putting the kibosh on the Marich Field and Broadbent Park upgrade projects to be funded by SNPLMA.  Now I’m surprised that SNPLMA would even consider funding more projects in this county, considering how badly a past commission handled the Duck Pond - considering one commissioner moved out of town and resigned, they were so embarrassed.  Apparently, this commission is so afraid of doing the right thing for the county that they’re going to bail on other projects.  Your county commission at work…Once again, opting to do nothing…than the right thing.

Well, we finally found something to not criticize the White Pine County Commission about.  We received word this week that there’s now a White Pine County Commission Hotline.  When you call 775-289-7777, you get “Thank you for calling the White Pine County Commissioner Hotline”.  You then get the option to leave a message for any of the five county commissioners or for the White Pine County Clerk.  Now, I’m not sure whose idea this was, but it’s not a bad idea.  It’s inexpensive, and to be honest, it’s a lot better than just venting on Social Media.  If you’re upset about how this commission is handling business, treating staff, or in general just being clueless, give them a call.  775-289-7777.  That’s 775-289-7777.  Of course, it requires you to be more than a keyboard warrior, you actually have to dial your phone and speak into is.  But give it a try.  The commissioners might actually listen…or maybe not.
