A Currituck County commissioner criticized a Corolla resident for airing his complaints about a proposed Outer Banks trolley during a public comment session, The Daily Advance reports:
Corolla resident Herb Robbins is used to getting a frosty reception from the Currituck Board of Commissioners.
But even the outspoken critic of the commissioners seemed stunned when a board member berated him at last week’s commissioners meeting, accusing him of using the session “to bad-mouth the commissioners.”
Commissioner Eldon Miller Jr. chastised Robbins for using the Board of Commissioners’ public comment session to air his grievances….
Robbins tried to pose those questions at the commissioners meeting, but Miller accused him of using the comment session to make the board look bad.
“It seems to me that you guys are taking this (comment session) to use as a bashing tool for the Currituck County commissioners,” Miller said.
