Honey, let me appoint you to the Planning Commission

Here it is! A crystal clear example of nepotism in the County. Not only does Mary Walker second the motion to appoint her hubby to Planning Commission, she also votes for him. Shame on you, Mary. What a disgrace. If this is an acceptable practice that is actually documented in the public record, imagine what goes on that we don't know about.

The following was copied from the Clermont Co. Commissioners meeting minutes of 12/14/04:

Unbelievable! This certainly smacks of nepotism. Isn't hubby Walker the current administrator in Union Township? Are there any citizens who don't have "special interests" on this "planning commission"???

UPDATE: Doug Walker is no longer on the Planning Commission. He is now Union Township Administrator.
