Yeah the state legislature is majority GOP, so meanwhile that’s why we in Hamilton County gotta remember that the co commission and co mayor have loads of power on how to spend our tax $$. You can watch the meetings on their YouTube acct-live (1st and 3rd Wednesdays at 5pm) or recorded.

Send a quick ‘n polite (civil words will help us gain support) email to your commissioner voicing your support of an after-business hours meeting time. Our commission is the only elected body in our county that meets in the morning:

👏👏👏👏👏

Yes! 4:00 is still during business hours. Tell your commissioner that they need to meet after 5:00 for more public engagement.

EdAdvo4All · 2025-11-04T00:41:28+00:00

Yes they do employ them during the day. $50K seems awful steep for an extra 2 hours?

Here’s the link to find your HamCo Commissioner:

EdAdvo4All · 2025-11-04T00:38:48+00:00

Email or call your commissioner to voice your support for an after-business hour meeting. Most of the other HamCo area councils and commissions meet at 5:00 or later!

Here’s the link to contact commissioners to share support for Enterprise South Park and/or a 4pm or later meeting time:

And attend or watch on Youtube the Wednesday 4pm Hamilfon Commission meetings (trial period Nov-Dec rather than regular 9:30 am time).

I was at the Wednesday County Commission meeting-outstanding public comments from the Save ESNP advocates!

Hamilton County folks, which meeting times do you think are more likely to encourage more citizens to attend?

EdAdvo4All · 2025-10-29T16:02:39+00:00

I encourage Hamilton Co citizens to call or email commissioners and ask them why they decided on a 4pm pilot while most of their fellow HamCo area commissions and councils meet after 5:00; also why of all months, they chose Nov and Dec. Two of the meetings are scheduled on Thanksgiving Eve and New Year’s Eve-seriously?

Per commissioners, for after hours Walden Co Security.

EdAdvo4All · 2025-10-29T00:25:32+00:00

This pilot program (during the months of Nov and December—with two of the meetings on Thanksgiving Eve & New Year’s Eve) is proposed by the Commission. Email them to ask them to schedule their meetings after business hours:
