Who are these "quite a few who pay nothing for municipal law enforcement?" Are you referring to me since I don't pay Wildwood taxes? In return for not paying those taxes I also don't receive Wildwood services. Do you want the entire county to pay for services limited to the incorporated areas???
So you are saying they don’t need the extra personnel in the sheriff’s office? I’m for cutting the sheriff’s department personnel back! Let’s get it done. Taxes are already way to high in Sumter county. Collectively residents paid 56 million last year for the department and this years budget has grown to more than 60 million dollars!
