It was pretty clear early on that reconveyance was not going to get this group's support.  The key issues are what to do with the accumulated arrearage and the DNR's lagging effort?  I don't think adding a county employee is the answer to either.  Put a quarterly status report on Jones' plate for the Commissioners to evaluate and direct any subsequent necessary action.  I'd also recommend taking timber money out of all taxing districts' funding.  Most budget without it anyway since unreliable.  Put it into the state's budget as another revenue.
