A BIG thanks to MCS for today's editorial. It is so very gratifying people are seeing Clay County for what it is: an emerging county needing adequate representation and leadership.

The editorial observation that a five-member commission cannot adequately create committees to foster communication about county issues is a viable consideration as the county continues to grow and worthy of public consideration.

And again, as the Charter Review has long held: five single district commissioners and two at-large commissioners symbolize both a legislative House and Senate.

Thank you MCS.
