Summary

During public comment, a Howell resident criticized a commissioner for repeatedly naming members of the public, said some materials circulated suggest anti-immigration positions, and urged commissioners to listen to taxpayers opposing 287(g)-style resolutions.

Stephanie Booth of Howell offered condolences for Commissioner Frank Sample and used her public-comment time to criticize a commissioner she said repeatedly names members of the public and circulates anti-immigration materials. Booth said those actions raise alarm and urged commissioners to heed taxpayers who oppose the type of resolution discussed earlier in public comment.

Booth said the county has many residents who oppose the referenced 287(g)-style resolutions and urged elected officials to “take your constituents seriously.” Her remarks did not prompt an immediate substantive response from commissioners during the meeting; they remain on the public record.
