Letter from "financially confused"
Icon:
I am really confused. The town cut a full time position due to financial reasons. But then I go to the pool and see that they have signs posted they they are putting in a sprinkler system in 2011. I thought there was no money. I've also heard that they plan on annexing part of North Dixie Highway. How are they paying for that? And what about the Spring Street bridge? It would great to have it fixed, but we've done without it for several years. There's money to do these things but not pay an employee. I'm not a financial wiz, but something doesn't seem right here.
