County Attorney’s Report <br />John Roberts said he thought the BOCC would need a closed session tonight on a <br />proposed item, but he did not receive the necessary information for this item, and the closed <br />session is no longer necessary. <br />John Roberts said the BOCC is getting emails and members of the public speaking at <br />meetings, about the BOCC regulating the confederate flag, and he wants to reiterate that this is <br />not what the BOCC is considering. He said staff was tasked with coming up with content <br />neutral language, which will be forthcoming and will only regulate the size and height of flags. <br />He said there are two large confederate flags already flying in the County that he believes will <br />be unaffected by this change, and the only two flags that he knows of personally, which may be <br />impacted by this change, are American flags. <br /> <br />11. *Appointments <br />NONE <br /> <br />12.
