MADISONVILLE-Anybody who came to Tuesday night's County Commission meeting wanting to see controversy over the proposed new jail site went away disappointed.

Commissioners put off a vote on allowing County Mayor Tim Yates to negotiate to buy property until the March meeting at the mayor's request and due to upcoming state training on jail issues.

The Monroe County Justice Committee earlier this month voted to recommend to the County Commission that land on New Highway 68 in Madisonville be purchased for a new jail.
