Business as usual can mean unusual business for Butler County Commissioners. A Butler County resident requested an audience with the Commissioners near the end of Tuesday’s Board of County Commissioners meeting and brought “Mr. Bones” with him. ’Mr. Bones” was the head of a carcass, possibly a cat, that the resident brought to illustrate his need for their assistance. He appeared before the board to ask for a County Health Inspector of County Fire Marshal to inspect the property where he currently resides, Hank Trailer Park.
He claimed the property is a haven for drug users and that he had been robbed on more than one occasion. But his plea to the commissioners was to have someone come out and inspect the property, which he rents. It was noted that there had never been such a request of the Commissioners before and there is not a County officer to whose job it is to do the inspection, the gentleman’s frustrations were evident.
The City of El Dorado has inspectors, however the property in question is out of city limits and falls within the county’s jurisdiction.
Chairman Woydziak assured him they would look into the matter and determine who could help him with the concerns he brought to the Commissioners.
