I was thinking (scary thought I know). If the county has rules and regulations regarding land development and in conjunction the Environmental Protection Division has regulations as well, then why are our commissioners handing out variances, that violate these regulations, as if they were a dime a dozen. If you have regulations then don't issue a variance that undermines those regulations. Wouldn't it be smarter to just change the regulations and be done with it. Maybe I'm wrong on this. But I'm afraid the way our commission board is violating their regulations and EPD's regulations that the county is at some point gonna be sued for so much and the state will get involved and we'll all have to begin to apply for building permits in Atlanta. Oh well, good-ol-boy system at its best.
