A team for the mayor and a team for council president. I hope that they can get out of this mentally and work together for the citizens of this town. I understand we want to be generous with the town employees but what is fair and right for the town should be considered too. It seems to me there’s two teams on the council.

I recall some alcohol related problems associated with century and their community center rentals. Seems that security would be warranted, at the renter's expense.

That is to know land used and how buildings can be used. To change that you have to go through a formal process with the Florida Dept of Economic Opportunity DEO. Also check the actual town charter for guidance. Just because you vote to remember you have home rule does not mean you can vote to make laws at a whim. Also as far employees needing to get info to the council, one can email all them at the same time. Saves time and money and gets the job done. Glad at least one councii member seems to know how to run a municipality. Ann Brooks, thanks. Keep us out of trouble. If they rent out the helicopter building it is zoned industrial and so is the one lumber road. Seems like good ideas but are they legal to accommodate crowds, insured, fire protection etc?
