Conflict of Interest or Just Conflicting Opinion UPDATED

Looks like they deferred considering the CAW appointment until this Tuesday ( July 8 at 4:00 P.M.)  Therefore it's still not too late to write your representatives on this issue. As of last week they had gotten at least 60 emails and probably more by now. Call me naive, but I still believe writing your representatives can change their minds - especially when they are on the fence on any particular issue. You can find their email addresses here.

Also on the agenda is time for discussion of the Lake Maumelle Watershed plan.

Apparently I'm not up on my Little Rock Mayor - Board of Directors form of government. Apprarently, the mayor does not get to vote unless there is a tie.
