W hen we invited the Artist in Education Program into our schools three years ago to complement our program, it was the excellence of the I E A representative.

John listed tfie work involved and his desire to devote more time to his personal life He will continue to very ably guide the Port o f M orrow as one of its five Bv Ed Glenn commissioners Difficult as it may he. (he County C ourt w ill he searching for a new planning commission member There will he those who will lobby for a resident o f lone or environs to " m a in tain geographic balance" on the commission There w ill he others that w ill argue for a " N o rth e n d e r." They w ill first point out that the huge majority o f land use decisions handled by the planning commission in volve land lix'jtcd in the north half of die county and therefore, it should be a resident of that half of the county Secondly, they w ill claim that sinc e the m ajority o f county residents live north o f the Bom bing Range, it's time for a majority o f some N u r d , commission or committee to come from that area Neither side w ill recogm/c that we need the best p e rvin for the job and that place of residence is simply not a qualifying characteristic W hoever is apnointed. let's hope they have the foresight to appoint a hearings officer conduct public hearings Th is aspect o f the com m is sion's work unnecessarily bum s up much of the commissioners’ time So long as the commission hears contested cases, little time w ill be left for real planning M ore commissioners than John w ill feel the need to resign to have any time for other things Besides, a hearings officer would probably do a better job of handling the very technical aspects of con tested case hearings. Die County C ourt should make a position on appointment of a hear ings officer one o f the considerations in selecting a new commissioner, and not make the appointment based on place o f residence. 8 (>/ package I V : î Eve r hear the story o f the load that fell into a deep ru t' A ll of his friends and relative» were convinced that he would never get out o f there alive A n d the toad was equally convinc ed.
