Letter to the Editor: Fred Coggins

County commissioners put this area of Iredell County in a ridiculous situation with this biodiesel plant mess. If the commissioners had done what the overwhelming number of people in this area wanted, we wouldn’t have this situation.

Every meeting the commissioners had, the majority of people said no to the zoning. It is another example of:

• A waste of time and tax money for lawyers to defend their position;
• Commissioners working against the people that put them in office;
• Commissioners not looking closely at what would happen if they get their way; and
• Commissioners who could have spent time on more important matters.

It is time for change and to put people in there who will work for the voters of Iredell County. I don’t see how anybody could put back in office the present set of commissioners.

I am against letting them put a biodiesel plant on this farm. Give me a break. Wake up people.
