Found Money

I received this letter in the mail yesterday afternoon from Attorney General Pam Bondi.

We will be receiving a small electronic payment from an anti-trust, price fixing case that recently settled.

While not a lot of money when our total budget of $455 Million is considered--this payment of a little more than $9,000.00 represents a punitive measure taken against some entity that was apparently trying to bilk small, local governments out of precious taxpayer dollars.

Multiply this amount by 67 Counties and it is a tidy sum...great job to the AG's office!

Glad to get the money, it all adds up!
