Greeson: Graham’s political win still shows emerging commission Power Five

Officially, it will be known as Resolution No. 915-34.

Realistically, it was local government – debate and discussion and ideas put to a vote – that worked at the most basic and proper level.

Resolution No. 915-34 allowed Hamilton County Commissioner Joe Graham to put his $100,000 in discretionary money back into the county’s reserve fund. An amendment allowed Commissioner Marty Haynes, who is running to be Hamilton County’s next property assessor, to put his hundred grand back, too.

The debate stirred discussion and passion – on this issue and commissioners’ obligations.

That’s a good thing.
