I'm prejudiced, though. I've known Robert 55 years and think fairly highly of him. David for most Hudsons So the complaint is that an accountant wasn’t a lawyer?

I’m prejudiced, though. I’ve known Robert 55 years and think fairly highly of him.

I declare, it is like turning the city over to selfish children! If they have done anything right in the last 10 years, I would like to see it published, but I doubt that has happened!

On a side note, I don't think I'd let Hudson do a financial report on my kid's lemonade stand.

And if there is anything being said as I observed in one comment about attendance, well I personally quit going when I observed you cannot get anything from the council or Mayor. I have lived here all my life and as also being grown I can say “the whole council and mayor is a disgrace and there continual actions are out right sickening.

Monday was September 13. The website does not show a town council meeting scheduled for September 13. Further, almost no town council meeting agendas and no meeting minutes are posted to the website for the period March 14 to present. Is that how they do business in Century? Is that legal? By the way, Escambia County and Pensacola are also raising property taxes. The Town of Century has a website. Monday was September 13.

Maybe ToC needs to start looking for a new and better person for the job of accounting for municipalities. Or is he related to or best friends with someone important. Isn't he the person that is to arrange an annual audit for Century? Since there has been no mention of negative results in the past couple of years, I am guessing that all the problems noted in past audits have been resolved and no new problems have cropped up. When does the State require these audits done before there are penalties and interest accrued? I am wondering just what does Town of Century pay Mr. Robert Hudson CPA to do.

That’s just as sad, that apathy among the residents is so pervasive. And no one in Century bothered to attend, except the publisher.
