It is unfortunate that the St. Louis County Board so often finds it necessary to undertake controversial votes at the meeting just before Christmas which is so often in Ely. I'm sure they have not noticed the difficulty folks have getting to that remote destination at this time of year.
It is also unfortunate they have not noticed that the code of conduct they are proposing to vote on lacks the important qualities that would serve to protect the county and it's employees from the repercussions of the behavioral antics of the commissioners.
The County is put in the spot of being a parent just realizing it is responsible for the acts of it's charming youngsters. Bullying and sexual harassment come home to roost in the pocket books of the voters. I suppose these fellows think that they can keep the raise to the county coffers under 5% and we'll all go back to sleep.
But I think some of the folks just look like they're sleeping. I think they care.
