The Board of Supervisors wanted to hear the rezoning at their regular April meeting, Miller maintained. He said Wednesday was the only day that the Planners could schedule their public hearing and still meet the state requirements for advertising and the local requirements that mandate a recommendation from the Planners before the Supervisors act on a rezoning.

"The haste will in no wav affect our decision,” he continued, adding that Kilpatrick might be able to understand that when he had learned more. "This county has gotten awful sick and it’s gotten sick with hate,” Miller stated, with a response of “amen” from someone in the audience.

“If you think you're going to sit here and accuse this Board of improper action and not going to have me jump on you, you’re crazy,” he told Kilpatrick.

Applicant Had No Bearing

“We didn't even look at the name” on the rezoning application, interjected Barksdale. “I wish you could get this through your head and down to the paper,” he added.

Planner E. P. Luke, who is also chairman of the Supervisors. assured Kilpatrick that the Supervisors would not take action on the rezoning at Thursday’s meeting and would instead postpone a decision until another Supervisor session.
