Palm Beach County

was already planning on putting in motion; for the County Commission, I just didn't have the same vernacular as the reading to express it. While government isn't exactly the same as the corporate system, the county commission in West Virginia is pretty close. That is because the county commission is the administrators for the rest of the county government. They are in charge of the budget, regulations,…

body, Crestwood School District, up to city Government, County Government, State Government, and finally, the Federal Government. Of these systems, it would be the most logical and much easier, to get rid of Wayne County and let every city, it governs, to take care of itself. Wayne County has the least political effect on the economy, and for this…

Sea was getting warmer and I desired to go the beach. I always love June’s. It is the harbinger of my best season ‘summer’. I feel more…
