The real issue here is the crony capitalism that is putting hundreds of millions of residents' dollars into the pocket of the Developer. He packed the County Commission with his puppets. The puppets then gave him a sweetheart deal on impact fees and hit the residents with a massive property-tax increase.
And I have been doing something to address this malfeasance, not "whining". This includes doing what I could to replace 3 of the Developer's puppet Commissioners with the EMS Team in the last election and insisting that the EMS Team keep their campaign promise. If anybody has been "whining", it is the defenders of the Developer now that his sweetheart deal on impact fees is under attack.

Yes U R whining. Continuously.
Yes everyone can afford it, otherwise they should not be in a $300,000 house.
If they are not in a $300k home, they are not paying $1 per day.
Developers DO NOT pay 100%.
Counties & Commissioners want growth & they give incentives.
You have been asked for proof of your "puppet" label and have never delivered support. You may think it, but you have no proof.
Yes EMS is in.
They have no experience.
Made promises and voters fell for campaign promises.

Not sure I would be proud.
Hundreds of millions did not go into the Developer's pocket.
So many posters have tried to educate you.
Please learn, you might be a happier person.
