PUBLIC COMMENTS
Bea Bebout, of Amwell Township, addressed the Board regarding the on -going negotiations for the Children and
Youth employees. She spoke of the many difficulties caseworkers experience while on the job and noted it is very
important to negotiate a new contract because the employees do not want to strike.

done to reach a new contract.
Fred Fleet, of Washington, questioned the Board regarding approximately $4.3 million dollars that was received
through the Washington County Redevelopment Authority in 2003 that was designated for the Highland -Erie Ridge

his inquiry.
Marc Simon, of South Franklin Township, made comments relating to the recent changes in the Clean and Green
Act and how this change affected his tax bill. He stated he is unhappy with the changes and requested the Board
consider rescinding the action and restoring the previous tax breaks for nonfarmers.
