That's what I'm saying, dog gate... nothing. The contracts have already been signed, the commitments have already been made. It's a done deal, regardless of how the taxpayers feel about it.

$2,212,500 a year for the next 20 years.

Just imagine how much they could have done for the county with $2 million a year!

Exactly what else can be done ? Greene and his 2 buddies screwed the citizens of the county. What else can be done? Nothing.

I moved several posts that were off topic to a new thread:

Someone else is as dumb as Greene and his buddies. You don't think anyone would pay $7 M for a 450,000 sq ft building and 50 acres of land in the best location in the county? How ridiculous.



Why is there talk now about the mistake of the dumb commissioners? Because they know they screwed up. Leaders in the county tried to tell them just do a study. But Greene for some reason, and I think you can guess, had his buddies vote against it.

Note from GoNC: a portion of this post was moved to a new thread, where it was more on topic.

What other decisions will these incompetent two make in the future. We better all pray that the new ones will have more business and financial experience.

We already messed that up, too. Casey Joe Johnson was one of the three votes for this, and not only did we vote him back in... he was the top vote getter! And now he's the Chairman. He's in until 2028, and by then everybody will have long forgotten.

Bill Sexton is up for reelection in 2026, I think.

It's my understanding that they're pretending someone else is buying it...

Y'all will be more effective discovering how "payback" schemes are happening. Always follow the money

With all due respect to Mr Triplette and he is a good man, back the **** out of the deal. Pay Vannoy the 1 million and then sue Stoney, Casey Joe and anybody else that supported that crazy transaction .
