JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

UPDATE - Regarding Agenda Item 1 in the Work Session, transfer of recreational property - lease/license, Sportsman's Landing, to the City of Scottsboro. I have discussed this matter with the TVA, the Jackson County Commission must receive approval from the TVA prior to this property being transferred to the City of Scottsboro as the property is owned by the TVA, not Jackson County.

TVA has confirmed that they have discussed this matter with the Jackson County Commission Chair, Tim Guffey, and informed him that the commission must get TVA approval prior to lease transfer.
