Supervisor Changes His Mind...?
Breaking News: In the ongoing saga regarding the relocation of the Lafayette County Circuit Court, there is a big development today. Supervisor Lloyd Oliphant forwarded this letter to the bar expressing his intent to change his vote and allow the Circuit Court to return to the historic courthouse on the Square. Unfortunatly, Mr. Oliphant couldn't bring himself to simply say "I'm sorry, this was clearly a poor decision. I'm happy to change my vote and make this right." Instead, he takes swipes at the Lafayette County Bar and "various persons" (think he's talking about me?) for doing what citizens are supposed to do - express their thoughts and will to their elected officials. Certainly this could have all been avoided if Mr. Oliphant had taken the advice of Supervisor Pickens and tabled the vote to allow for public input. Alas...
There has yet to be an official vote, so expect the legal action by the Lafayette County Bar and local citizens to continue until the Supervisors meet and a new motion is passed. I'll continue to keep you updated.
