For years, we have advocated more planning than zoning. However, when reality sets in, the opposite is true.

Maybe heeding some of our advice or maybe thinking outside of the normal governmental box, Bullitt County Judge/Executive Melanie Roberts wants to hire a planner.

Great idea. Wish we had thought of it 20 years ago.

The problem is -- and always has been -- money. To hire someone with a degree will take more than the $39,000 set aside in the annual budget.

Maybe the economy would make filling the position more possible. We don’t know.
