Responding to the letter written praising the GID of Indian Hills. This board is so out of touch with the community they do what they want regardless what the people want. Do not listen to us.
EDITOR: I have read several attempts by people in the community trying to label Mr. Bonner as a PR guy. I found out he isn't a PR guy at all.
Mr. Bonner is so out of touch with our county that when he filed to run in March, he didn't even know that he would be representing District 2.

EDITOR: We are 20-year residents of Douglas County. We both learned to fly at the Minden airport, fulfilling the dreams of flying that we had since we were young children
EDITOR: In recent months and over years past, the airport has been under siege from opponents that have misled the community by special interest groups.
A bad law is a bad law, period. How can a law be good if it doesn't protect the citizens or give its citizens control? How can a law be good if it is NOT enforced because it's not enforceable?
