![]() Tuesday, June 23, 2009Charlie and the Flip Flop Factory
Today Commissioner Charles Jenkins aka (Flip-flop Charlie) completed his reversal on the incinerator by voting to approve it. This comes a few weeks after his failed motion and vote to end procurement of the incinerator and subsequent successful motion to suspend procurement. At the time Jenkins stated he had concerns with the $600 million price tag and the public outcry. “We need results not lawsuits,” Jenkins stated.
Michael Hough, Candidate for the House of Delegates stated, “Other than him perceiving the political wind to be blowing in a different direction, none of the reasons he stated for voting against the incinerator, only a couple of weeks ago, have changed.” Hough added, “It’s unbelievable that he ordered the County to do four months worth of studies, which cost taxpayer money, and now a couple of weeks later he completely changes his mind and approves the incinerator.” Sunday, June 14, 2009Grover Norquist to Join Michael Hough for Taxpayer Protection Pledge Signing
