Sometimes I am embarrassed to say "I am from N.Y." People from the city say "New York" and a lot of us others say "Up state New York"...... 2 different worlds.

Like I have said before I've lived here for over 17 years and my taxes are less now than when we first arrived. Someone at the County level has been doing something right! Another thing nobody seems to mention is that the Developers and their companies are probably the biggest tax payer in Sumter County.
If you recall I reconsidered my comment about Sheriff Farmer and than took it down. I do not think he should be involved with politics and he went out of his way to endorse the former commissioners.

Now I am not sure about the intentions of Mr Estrep and voiced my opinion to him. What he wrote back to me and others can be taken several ways and time will tell what will happen.

IMHO I think the developer got himself a sweetheart deal on the backs of the residents of the county.

I am entitled to my opinion and you are entitled to yours. Have no idea what being from NYC has to do with it.
