RUMORS
Things to ponder:
1. Why is the City moving everything out of the City Annex Building? Even the Utility Payment Center will be relocated. What is really going on with our building? Rumor had it recently that the Mayor and CM were trying to hand it off to another city or county.
2. Leslie Evans, owner of the Lucerne Parking lot at 601 Lucerne made an offer to the City to be able to use the lot for free parking--Take over the payment of taxes and insurance and you can continue to use it. The City said "no" and now Evans has roped off the property.
3. Rumor has it that the CM is "screwing everyone on the Sunset deal." Is she? And why would she?
4. Regarding Code Enforcement--another rumor has it that the city is looking into contracting with WPB for code officers at $65 an hour.
5. Varela will be leaving
before his term ends.
6. The Finance Advisory Board meets on the 12th with the City Commission to find out what in heck its role really is. It has been suggested that requested information by the Board was purposely never given. Why have a Board if it cannot effectively do its job?
Sometimes there is actually something to a rumor. There are some people in this city who think they work for the National Enquirer. However, regarding the current rumor that is spreading like wildfire about a new law suit regarding our Casino, our real estate broker and one of the prospective tenants, there is NO law suit.
