OPINION —

Dear Lee County Commission,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. However, I am writing to you with a concern that has been bothering me for some time. As a resident of Lee County, I’ve noticed that the commission’s lack of response on multiple issues seems to indicate a lack of multitasking skills required to speak for the public they represent.

I was recently trying to reach out to some of you through the email addresses provided on your website. However, to my dismay, I found my email lacking a response from any commissioner. This isn’t very reassuring, as it gives the impression that the communication channels are not being monitored properly.

Furthermore, your website is quite difficult to navigate on mobile devices. Considering the fact that most people nowadays use their mobile devices for nearly everything, this is not very user-friendly. It’s critical that the county commission ensures access to information for all citizens, regardless of which device they use.

Finally, I am concerned that not all public documents are available to the public online. As taxpayers, we pay for servers that house Lee County Commission information, and it is only fair that all information be available to us with the click of a button. This would help to promote transparency and keep us informed about the issues affecting our community.

I urge you to look into these issues and make sure that these concerns are addressed. As a commission, it’s your duty to uphold the rights of the citizens you represent. I hope that you’ll take these concerns seriously and make the necessary changes to ensure that every citizen of Lee County feels like they are being heard and represented.

Sincerely,

Rudy McCumsey
