Concerning the feral cats: why doesn’t the City of Washington hire a cat patrol.

It is unbelievable that our county now finds it necessary to hire a $50,000 lobbyist to represent Beaufort County’s interest in the Legislature. Let’s hope that our $50,000 tax burden will ensure that our newly divided county’s representatives will be on the same page as our lobbyist.
