Letters From GOP Hillsborough County Commissioners
Letter I sent our county commissioners
on the issue of transit.
"I have been a HART rider for over 10 years. More roads does not help me at all. STOP spending our money on roads. We want more buses and rail. We have one of the worst transit systems in the country. With the exception of Ms. Kemp are you all in developers pockets?"
-----
Thank you for contacting the office of Commissioner Crist about funding for public transit. I will be sure to share your thoughts and concerns on the issue with the Commissioner.
Sincerely,
Chris Heintz
Legislative Aide
Commissioner Crist, District 2
-----
Thank you so much for contacting our office regarding Transit. Your input regarding this issue is important to the Commissioner. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and opinions with us. Have a great day and please don’t hesitate to call our office if we can be of further assistance.
Sincerely,
Ms. Eli Rodriguez
Aide to County Commissioner Al Higginbotham
Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners
-----
Thank you for your email. Commissioner Hagan is just as frustrated as you are about the need for funding adequate transit in Tampa/Hillsborough county. That is why he was the only Republican on the Board to support placing the sales tax referendum on the ballot last year. Unfortunately, a majority of board members opposed that plan.
The hard truth is that we have billions of dollars in unmet infrastructure needs in Hillsborough county and the only way to begin to address that is to have a dedicated funding source of tax dollars—this has been very hard to come by. But Commissioner Hagan is committed to continue fighting to address our transportation needs in a meaningful and rational way. In the meantime, the Board will soon finalize a transportation plan that will dedicate $700 million over 10 years to improve existing roads and provide congestion relief where possible in Hillsborough county. Feel free to share with us any questions you may have concerning this plan. And please let us know if we can ever be of service to you. Have a great day.

Tampa Bay's Culture Of Corruption
Many of the politicians who decide how many tax dollars will go to benefit Tampa Bay’s professional sports franchises are also accepting free tickets to those teams’ games. Tributes also include beer, wine, liquor, and a number of casual food items such as burgers and Cuban sandwiches. Occasionally, crab cakes and sushi may be added. And access to politically-influential business leaders is always on the menu.
--------------
Just re-elected Florida GOP Sandy Murman received three luxury box tickets to the 2016 Outback Bowl for her husband.

Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, is a frequent guest of local sports teams.
-----
Florida GOP State Senator Tom Lee, who is not allowed to accept any gift worth more than $25 as a state legislator, received a pair of suite tickets to the Feb. 2016 Monster Jam at Raymond James Stadium.

Sandy Murman Voted To Support The Rick Scott Express (TBX)
The BOCC deprived us of the right to vote on Go Hillsborough. One of those at the center of that decision is on the ballot Nov. 8.
Sandy Murman
Commissioner Murman has also voted to support the Rick Scott Express (TBX) and the tolling of the Howard Frankland Bridge. It's our turn to send a message.
If you're in the market for new vision and leadership on the County Commission, Vote Jeffrey Zampitella
and Patricia Kemp...
In person early voting begins!

Cojones-Less Hillsborough County Commissioners
Exception Kevin Beckner
-----------
The Hillsborough BOCC has voted 6-1 in favor of the $600m plan to raid the existing budget to further subsidize sprawl. Outgoing commissioner Kevin Beckner was the lone no vote. Virtually 100% of the spending will occur in areas where developers are building houses, but are not providing adequate infrastructure. Instead, the county is increasingly taking money from taxpayers in established neighborhoods (Tampa), and using it to subsidize new growth. here
----------
After a show of force by citizens at Wednesdays meeting they still voted against us. Hillsborough Dems wake up, you have the power,
do the the math.

Sandy Murman's October Surprise
$600 Million Slush Fund

"It's really nothing more than a $600M subsidy for more sprawl - exactly what Hillsborough County does not need." Kent Bailey

"Just another south county giveaway. Hundreds of millions flows to south county, where the developers don't pay shit and neither does the sprawling tax base." Jason Ball

"Politicians and government workers go to jail for misappropriation of public funds. Remind them."
