At a meeting of the Lake County Commissioners on Tuesday, Feb. 18, Lake County Commissioner Mark Albertson raised an interesting point when members of the Lake County Umbrella Watershed Council (LCUWC) were talking about all the different projects throughout the county; and that was marketin…

I guess I’m just a sort of gregarious type of person, as my friendships are across all the aisles. But I must admit, that in order to maintain all these very wonderful and fulfilling relationships I have to tread carefully when it comes to taxes and politics. It’s not that I’m halfhearted ab…
