Let decades of elections and the poor governance wrought from that have their consequences. There should be no bail outs.

I’d like a spreadsheet of all the grants the TOC has received and where the money was used. How many times do the taxpayers have to pay for the mismanagement of funds by the Town Council?!??

The best thing would be for the state to pull the charter, disband the inept city government, and sell assets.

The city is not financially stable, has not been in many years, and would likely get more benefits from being run by the county. If not, it surely can't get worse than it is now. At least there would be no unnecessary city related fees or taxes which apparently are never enough to keep the city afloat. The city does nothing but need help and funding constantly.

"Grant Money" is not penny's from heaven, it all comes out of the pocket of the taxpayers of the State of Florida. Instead of handing them more money, the Legislative Delegation should seriously look at revoking the Town Charter and letting local agency's take over the services that can efficiently provide reliable service instead of running from one crises to the next non stop. @Alan; My point was that TOC cannot manage their money, and they do owe the State of Florida several million dollars from funds that were misappropriated. “Grant Money” is not penny’s from heaven, it all comes out of the pocket of the taxpayers of the State of Florida.
