NO VOTE Tomorrow on the 4-Cent Gas Tax...It was NEVER on the Agenda!
There has been a ruckus stirred up, to the point of getting citizens exercised, lathered, and all worked up over a vote that will not even happen tomorrow at our regular Board of County Commissioner's meeting.
It is a shame folks fell for this misinformation......
For all the folks who saw a "posting" on a social media site talking about a vote at this weeks BCC meeting on whether or not to continue the 4-Cent gas tax to fund public transportation locally--here is a newsflash for you. There is no vote on this tax tomorrow. This is NOT what is on the agenda. The item on the agenda is simply a public hearing on an Interlocal agreement between Pensacola and Escambia County.
Furthermore---even if the BCC wanted to vote tomorrow at our meeting to repeal the tax--legally we could not do so!
According to our attorney--the only way we could legally repeal this tax is by noticing the public about the tax, and then voting on this tax at a subsequent, noticed public meeting.
It is a shame that folks believed this incorrect information, this misinformation.
But the truth of the matter is quite simple: This will not be voted upon tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteNever assume he is being truthful.
ReplyDeleteThis playcard is getting so worn. It's dog-eared, unwaxed, bent. And it's coming from a deck with all the kings missing, a couple of the queens, no jack of hearts and one of the joker cards scribbled over in a half-bled ballpoint to sub in.
ReplyDeleteIf this were a game of cribbage, Doug would be holding a split run and a pair and hoping for the right card to be cut, no decent pegging cards, and the dealer with the crib needing a couple of 15's to go out.
It's too bad for Doug there hasn't been any bingo on the menu lately. Then he could REALLY show us all something.
So tomorrow, we will all sit there through never-ending torrents and tirades, with him and us knowing it's for nothing.
Meanwhile, his most gullible groupies over on ECW are still talking about what else the gas tax can be used for. It's sad, actually. So much wasted energy over nothing.
If he spent half the time actually attending to his district that he spent trying to fool people, we'd be far down the road of progress. Instead, it will take us 20 years to dig out from underneath his mess. There ends the humor.
