The drama continues. This March 30, 2023 Custer County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) meeting had a few Broadway moments, but as usual, life goes on in Happy Valley.
The meeting started at 9 a.m. with the usual suspects all present: Chair Kevin Day and members Bill Canda and Tom Flower in all their ranger rocket three musketeers power thrones.
