In the article “Brown
applauds Hwy. 74 widening” appearing in the Wednesday, Nov. 12,

City Mayor Steve Brown is taken partially out of context. When he said,
“They’re just trying to make me look bad,” Brown was
specifically referring to run-ins he has had with members of the county
commission and Chamber of Commerce over the TDK extension, and not the
county’s legislative delegation, with whom Brown said he has worked
hard to build strong relations.
