Commissioner Lyons seconded the Motion; and questioned strongly why it was necessary to split a small county of under 100,000 people at all. Attorney Brandenburg stated he would work with Mrs. Richey and draft a resolution. Lengthy conversation took place, and it was determined that this resolution should be sent to Washington and to Tallahassee. The Chairman called for the question. It was voted on and carried unanimously.
