Some elected officials hope to end a chapter that’s taken up a lot of time in recent weeks – by discussing a resolution to censure one of their own.
Grand Traverse County Commissioners were discussing a resolution to censure Vice Chairman Ron Clous. Clous stood up during public comment about the Second Amendment during the January 20th meeting, left the frame and then came back holding a gun. It caused Chairman Rob Hentschel to chuckle. Clous held the firearm sideways in his lap for a few seconds, then put it down.
