Boardman: Pandemic didn't dampen the competition for coveted local awards

By George Boardman | Columnist Anybody who thought the coronavirus pandemic would put a damper on the 2020 edition of the You Can’t Make This Stuff Up awards underestimated the zaniness and clueless behavior of many of their fellow citizens in western Nevada County. The pandemic still provided an endless array of possibilities to compete for the seventh year of the coveted awards, whether it was KNCO realizing Rush Limbaugh is a divisive person and canceling his show, or that taxpayers weren’t allowed to observe planning to reopen the economy. Grass Valley decided to turn its vacant retail stores into a Potemkin village and voters gave the OK to reap the tax benefits of the pot business, a subject the City Council wouldn’t even discuss a couple of years ago. Then there was the Chamber of Commerce’s endorsement of a rally to reopen business that was withdrawn because of criticism. Of course, the Grass Valley chamber actually has somebody to run it, unlike the one in Nevada
