Residents raise concerns about low-flying aircraft and voice support for Second Amendment

Grayson County Board of Supervisors · March 12, 2026

Summary

During public comment, a resident said a low-flying plane was mapping the county and expressed concern about potential pollution if related to data-center siting; two other residents voiced support for Second Amendment protections, saying it preserves rights and is part of local culture.

Three members of the public addressed the Board during the registered-speaker period. Bepe Kafka of Sugar Camp Lane asked what an airplane recently seen mapping areas of the county was mapping and warned of potential pollution impacts to streams if flights were related to data-center siting; the minutes record Kafka as "concerned as to what they are mapping for — if it’s for a data center location, then all should be concerned regarding pollution and our streams."

Two other residents spoke in favor of Second Amendment protections. Doug Cox of High Point Lane said, according to the minutes, "It's about preserving our rights," and Kenneth Nester of Bethany Road said that "guns are a way of life here." The public-comment segment in the minutes records these statements but does not show any direct response from Board members to those speakers during the session.
