Dee Layne's Letter To The County Commission
Commissioners,Almost 80% of the VOTERS MANDATED you levy the one-cent tax to buy land through ELAPP. You have no decision-making on this issue…you have a mandate from the voters.
We recognize, and you should too, that this land preservation program is the best growth management tool you have in this county. The decision is out of your hands – JUST DO IT!
Trust me, if you don’t listen to what your VOTERS have asked,
when election time comes we will remember.
Very angry and frustrated,
Denise Layne

The Cone Ranch Deal In Hillsborough County
I wasn’t the only one that thought something smelled funny about this Cone Ranch deal, a recent proposal by Commissioner Ken “Half Truth” Hagan
(to subdivide and sell public land to private investors) and in the process serve up millions to Republican donors for brokering the deal..........here
Democrats, In Pursuit Of Big Dollars
Have Neglected The People We're There To Serve.These words were written in 2004. I see the same things happening now that have happened the last few years in our party. It angers me and it saddens me. Those who spoke truth are seldom heard, and those who push a rather pandering sort of middle ground get all the attention...........madfloridian
