CITIZEN QUESTION AND
COMMENT PERIOD Mr. Vance Jochim, FiscalRangers.com,
commented on Tab 7, suggesting it be pulled for discussion so they could
address what the two line items on the supporting table which read, “Aid to
Pvt Organizations” to determine what that money is specifically being
allocated for. He then suggested the
extra allotments towards the cities be used towards programs which aid many
people such as creating a jobs program, as opposed to using the money to fund
current programs such as buying foreclosed homes, which only benefits a few. Mr. Scott B. Taylor, a resident of
Sorrento, addressed the Board regarding the Wekiva Expressway, expressing
concerns over the wording of the inter-local agreement. He requested the inter-local agreement be
ready to approve next week, and asked the Chairman to consider writing a
letter to Governor Crist requesting that Senator Lee Constantine be
reappointed as Chairman of the Wekiva Coordinating Committee as a private
citizen. |
