MEDC Responds at MCBG Meeting – Videos

Leaders of the MEDC attended Saturday’s public meeting of the Monticello Citizens for Better Government meeting, in their effort to provide their views and explanation of the recent opinions expressed by the MCBG.

Once again, neither side convinced the other side of anything, but both views were well stated.
