Official blasts CAMPO as unfair to Callaway County

Callaway County Western District Commissioner Doc Kritzer on Tuesday sharply criticized the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) before he was re-appointed by the commission as the county's CAMPO representative.

The appointment came after Kritzer said he was fed up with CAMPO because it is dominated by the city government of Jefferson City.

Newly elected Callaway County Presiding Commissioner Gary Jungermann said he had not been in office long enough to be familiar with all of the issues surrounding CAMPO, which is a planning district around Jefferson City that also includes a small part of Callaway County extending around Holts Summit.
