		<description>&quot;I reached out to my network, and I was able to get two proposals.” Brown said&quot;
My question is why wasn&#039;t it advertised locally. Surely there are plenty of qualified individuals in the NorthEscambia News Market Area who could provide the same services.  This individual is from Davie, Florida. I didn&#039;t see any mention of travel and Per Deim reimbursement in the contract amount, so is this just for salary and are there extra costs not reported here?
Another question is as to why Mr. Brown had to spend the entire $34,800 that was his authorized limit? It sounds like the arrangement had already been made before the dollar amount was established.</description>

		<description>The new manager is working his scheme now! Using Federal taxpayer money to hire a pal to be a so called procurement manager, which is a purchasing agent, who will direct all the town purchases to a pal in South Florida, skimming more taxpayer money! I bet the agent won&#039;t set up a competitive bid process to purchase town supplies and equipment!! The town has turned into one big scam to skim taxpayer money and everyone down the line of buddies will get a piece of the action!</description>
