Citizens, commisssioners, planners, etc. Sometimes it is too funny.
Last night, an elderly citizen at the P&Z got up to speak and said "Gee, you fellers look a lot better in person than you do on t.v." (Chuckles all around). "But let me tell you, our [County] commissioner, he could sure use a makeover".
At a P&Z years ago, a minister operating an illegal church was pleading for a special exception, and kept saying "Our intention is...", "Our intention is...". Finally, the chairman cut him off and said "Yeah, well, you know the road to you-know-where is paved with good intentions, too. I'll entertain a motion to deny." The minister was still standing, shell-shocked, for several minutes after the vote was taken.
What are the best lines you've heard?
