The Newton County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday dismissed the city of Covington's request for six more members on the planned 2050 citizens' panel, quickly reaching a consensus that 13 was the number of members originally agreed upon and there was no reason to change that. Commissioner John Douglas made a motion to add a discuss of the city's Monday night actions to the agenda Tuesday, but it died for lack of a second. "I was in that (coalition) meeting and we decided on 13," said Commissioner Lanier Sims.
