Not many people know this and he won't say it, but it was the County that said these meetings in DC and backslapping horn-tootin by barfield and catlin ignores that it was Brian Berger who went to DC last month and led the fight to get these meetings. Barfield was focused on beach nourishment only and Berger secured meetings on non-attainment with EPA. I know cause I've seen the emails.

WWAY...did you ever ask why Berger was at odds with the "defeatist approach" of the county, barfield, and questionable catlin????

The record shows why brian might have been so upset at the county's actions, secrecy, when Berger clearly understands from his time in lobbying how the Federal government works. Barfield not so much.

Berger is owed an appology and thank you for being right, and being attacked by your station, other media and wrongheaded commissioners and top county staff...berger was right. He needs to be in DC on these trips...Berger is clearly head and shoulders ahead of the chairman and his cronies in understanding these issues and Berger made these meetings possible. His thank you...to be lambasted...who could blame him if he just said to heck with this and we would all suffer.

Thank You Brian Berger! Shame on you Barfield and catlin. you were wrong and owe brian an apology. You owe us all an apology. JTJ
