County of Wise, Virginia – Board of Supervisors Meeting Information

I'm still confused as to why anyone would vote for a 3on1 plan. I haven't heard one person, other than board members say they like this idea at all. That plan is nothing but a "If we are gonna suffer, everyone is gonna suffer" plan. Surely the people of Pound and Appalachia can see that no matter what route is taken, their high schools are gone, and the RIGHT plan must now be pushed for....
The original 3-on-3 is by far the best and most logical plan.
Only thing I can figure is that it is the Cheepist of the plans that involve building new schools and the BOS is not planning on opening up its purse any wider than is has to (That is ONLY a guess on my part)Quote:

It is still less than 10 mins to the 3-in-1 site for BSG or Wise. And we all know the county is broke.Quote:

see how sad that sounds? its like a little child. if i dont get my way nobody does, and kicks the ball into the river.
That is the point I was trying to get across with my last post.Quote:

I think that was one of the quickest meetings of all time for the BOS.
