I'll try to answer your misguided post from 4-30-10.  Lets see I'll answer your Q's in order.  Drugs, Shootings, Fights, Alcohol, Rude behavior, Disrespect, Litter all over the place, Oh My.  The reason for No other LEO's from other Agencies, is because the lack of answer' s to #1 Q. No Drugs, No Alcohol, No fights, No disrespect, an actual "Family" gathering, No one drunk or high all over the parks, actual behavior with morals and civility.  As far as the ignorant comment about the kkk, that doesn't even deserve a response.  Just to see if you understand, in the past 30 years when did you see white people burning, looting, stealing, shooting up their own neighborhood?

So you can have an event parade festival with white folks and use minimum LEO's and when you have the same with the other folks, you need maximum LEO's. see how simple that is?  If your a Fireperson or E.M. T. and have to go into a large gathering at an event in whitie town vs going into the drug/alcohol/weapons/rude/rock throwing invested other race group event which are you gonna go to without LEO's??  So all those LEO's are actually for the protection of the people.

Why is Brown Sugar treated differently than White Sugar Festivals?  And no Hendry doesnt pay for the extra police.

It is provided because of a mutual agreement of the Florida Sheriffs Association taskforce for this region,  AND by our local Sheriff who doesnt  understand the true purpose of that agreement.  I doubt he ever even read it.  His attention span is about 5 seconds.

However from our sources,  the surround county Sheriffs are getting wise to these antics of BOTH our Sheriff and our BOCC for playing this game when the Brown sugar festival charges for vendor space and has contributions for them but dont pay a dime for any of the law enforcement sources.

Who by the way enacted the 8pm curfew as reported by WINK news?  The BOCC?  Say it wasnt the Sheriff here who thinks he can "speak the words and make it so!"  If he is the one who imposed that, he has violated every constitutional protection to every citizen out there and the mere process of the LEGAL  CREATION AUTHORITY of this county which is NOT him.   But the BOCC. 

Message to BOCC members:  when are you all going to start administering checks and balances to the Sheriff?  Sans the fact he is a constitutional, you are the funding authority and have the authority to question his expenditures and accountability.  (Wake up Mark Lapp he must be dozing again)

That's good ole white folk that is. This is a very sad situation and what get's to me is the fact that it is now 2010 and we still have a these types of people still running governmental agencies. What I find to be extremely funny is that these so called "sheet" wairing folk are so hell bent on keeping black folk and other minorities down that they can't even see that they are only holding there own selves back that much further. Where is the money in these counties. They aren't growing economically and the sheets don't want them to. I guess as long as they don't allow money and jobs to come into these areas that means less potential for the Black folk to possibly do better than them. Could this be FEAR!! Get over yourselves!:X

:X Okay, people here we go again another darn "Brown Sugar Festival." Why is it that this is the only festival that Hendry County S.O. pulls out all the stops for? This disfunctional group of wannabe deputies, use the blacks that are employed there to harass and browbeat the Harlem Community at no...... Other festival are there law enforcement personel from other communities utilizied. This is the only time that the administration attempt to let the black men and women that are employed in this unorganized riffraff attempt to shine. It doesn't matter when the rest of the time they are stuck in corners out of sight and out of mind. This is truly racism to the fullest. I applaud this administration for taking the time to use the blacks in this department to harass and browbeat the men and women of the Harlem Community. I guess no one will be able to speak for fear of being arrested or having their cars towed away. There is nothing like using a black man to stick it to the black man. Good Job Hendry Co. S.O. of showing us that racism is alive and kicking in the "Dirty South." The k.k.k. have taken off their sheets and put on green uniforms and recruited those other than pure bred good ole white folk...:dude:

WOW! I am a former citizen of your county, it's amazing how history has it's own way of reflecting it's negative energies in today's disfunctional communties. I pray for the Hendry Counts Sheriffs Office. Why? I once had the opportunity to work along side some excellent officers. NOT ALL, but there was a few... I'm certain that one day those dedicated, sincere, responsible, and loving officers will eventually assume the leadership position of the community. I know that there is ONE GREAT OFFICER remaining in your county. I pray that corruption be forgiven, and that God transitions your community in faith. BE BLESSED!!

"If" is correct, more often than not he is wrong, you have read stories in that paper for years most are slanted and biased by an anti government person whom is not known for the truth.
 


Once the commissioners were led to believe an estimate, (this estimate by one of Clewiston's own City Commissioners), on cost of repairs for the county sub-office was accurate.  HCSN reported said City Commissioner stated his estimate was thought to be for insurance purposes.
So, this commissioner would use inaccurate numbers for one purpose and expect them changed for another purpose? So does this guy have two sets of books for his business like he wants for the county?  Government corruption at it's finest. Ethics commission should be called for this revelation.

The second leading the commissioners to believe she had contacted the owner of the K-Mart building regarding rent estimates. HCSN reports the K-Mart owner said he was never contacted.
HCSN cannot be relied upon to present the real facts do your own inquires he is usually mistaken.

If we had commissioners that cared maybe we could get something done around here, they only care if there is a gain for themselves. They write checks and spend our money.  OH!! don't get me started on this it's time to vote new blood in and out with the old. We are in 2010,  and these guys are part of the good old boys. Folks lets do something about it only we can do it. I saw in the news paper someone running for county commissioner in district 2 it's on page 2 of the Caloosa Belle, lets all get together and vote everyone out and put new people in. They say they work for us when they want our votes then they do what they want. They are supposed to be our voice - why are we letting them do what they want. OUT with the OLD and IN with the New.  VOTE VOTE VOTE this is election year, lets do something for our kids if we don't change it now it will be to late. Lets take an intrest in our young ones only we can do it 

look what I found Its about time someone gets courage enough to run against them

Boys and girls, there comes a time for us to stand up and DO something to alleviate our frustrations concerning the Hendry County Commissioners and the idiot County Administrator. We sit around on our computers and heel bite this bunch of bozo`s when instead we need to form a Hendry County Tea Party and educate the public on how to rid ourselves of these represenatives and their ill-conceived ideology.

The commissioners are writing checks that the taxpayers can not afford to cash. They support bigger government while small business keeps getting smaller. When people like McCarthy and Chapman, ( who work for government and/or a large corporation ) are seated on the board to make important decisions regarding our livelihoods, they will throw the average taxpayer under the bus.    

We can put signs up in the back of pickups, pass out bumper stickers, nail posters up on street corners, get out and rally to find others that share the same thoughts and concerns of us. All the local organizations in town meet at local restaurants and discuss different issues and come up with ideals and solutions. If you are really peed off, get off your butts, and do something.

THE SWAMP CABBAGE PARADE THIS WEEK-END WOULD BE A GREAT TIME TO HANG AND WAVE POSTERS SAYING,,,,,,,,,OUR COMMISSIONERS SUCK !!!,,,,,,,,,,AS THEY RIDE DOWN BRIDGE STREET,,,,

I don't know alot about the county commissioners, but I do have some intel on the Sheriffs Department. I know several Deputies with the county, and I cannot find one that is happy. I recently asked a deputy if he missed Sheriff Lee as a joke and he said yes, but was serious. He said he has never seen the department so bad, and the good ol boy system is unbelievable. The duputies were upset that the new hired deputies start out making the same pay a guys who have been there 10 years, so to fix the problem they lowered the starting pay for new deputies so the only thing the older deputies would have is bragging rights about who makes more. Now thats poor mangement. The department also just get a 37,000 truck with one more on the way, and issued it to a Captian who only rides to and from work nothing more and the second one will go to a training sergeant. If they were going to spend money on a vehile, why not issue it to the guys on the road who are working. I have never understood why the upper admin would have only the best in equipment which don't need it, and the guys who work and would benefit from it better have to deal with junk. To me, A leader leads by example. A leader would take something plain so his guys would have the best because he cares. The problem with these so called leaders is they are only for them selves. Our deputies and Officers need to be treated better. I too am not happy with how the county is being ran rigth now. There need to be some changes.

We need at least 3 new county commissioners not to mention a new County Manager/Administrator whatever her title is.  IF, and that's a big word, the reported news in today's Hendry County Sunday News is correct, our commissioners have had the wool pulled over their eyes twice in recent meetings. Now this is the people in charge of our county.....

 

Once the commissioners were led to believe an estimate, (this estimate by one of Clewiston's own City Commissioners), on cost of repairs for the county sub-office was accurate.  HCSN reported said City Commissioner stated his estimate was thought to be for insurance purposes.

 

The second leading the commissioners to believe she had contacted the owner of the K-Mart building regarding rent estimates. HCSN reports the K-Mart owner said he was never contacted.

 

It seems these "misleads" have led three of our commissioners toward favorably building a new sub-office S of the railroad tracks in Clewiston.  This should be such an embarrassment for these three commissioners, not to mention a terrible cost for taxpayers of Hendry County when the economy here is in the condition it is.  We need to elect some commissioners who truly care about our county and can understand what should be evident to them, that Hendry County doesn't need to be depleting funds unnecessarily.  Maybe they are looking for another building or "site" to be named after them.

Mike, it is my understanding that there is only two administrators at the Clewiston Police Department? You speak of four?  I have also been a citizen of Clewiston for over 20 years and have never seen our agency in better shape with qualified officers that are willing to do their job and not just get a paycheck for doing nothing.  A lot of the old officers were there because that is all the Police Department could get for the money they paid or because the Police Department was stuck with them.  Sense Gutshall was hired he has transformed that agency.  I have never met a more honest man, that does what he believes is best for the community, with no concern to how it may help or hurt him with the political good old boys.  Gutshall has a true open door policy.  He will listen to your complaint look into it not just taking his officers word, then address the problem if he believes there is one or tell you to your face that he does not agree with you and back his officers.  I wish there were more County Officials who would do that or even just call you back.  As for the officers not being happy, I  just spoke to one of their young officers the other day and he was excited about new things that were coming to the agency and where he felt they were going and what they were going to be able to do for the City of Clewiston.  It sound as though you may have some sour grapes maybe they caught you and did not let you walk like the old days.

Most of the prior Sheriff's divided their time equally between their offices.

If they wanted to really save money they should  drug test all of the county employees. They would drop like flies . Advertise for the positions  that would be created  believe me there are lots of qualified people looking for jobs.Start with the City Managers job and work down.

Karson Turner like the other commissioners takes all the money and perks he can get plus an expense account for all the trips and best hotels he stays in.   Palease!


He did not attend the Christmas party nor extend any type of holiday wishes for county staff most likely because no one told him to, I am surprised this gomer phile wanna be can walk and chew gum at the same time. He needs retrained at every meeting he attends what an embarrassment he is to the county when in public.

Hey Egle, you seem to make good sense with most of the things you talk about on here.  I just have a few things I would like to comment on.  Now I am new at this and I have seen how you all trash people for spelling and grammar issues.  I am no English major and am a horrible speller so take it easy on me.

Egle said: Your right johnnie. We have some real idiots in there. They already announced that "no raises for the lil guy"

Comment: I agree this is not right if the bottom rung do not get raises neither should the top.  Why do commissions make what they make?  I am sure there are citizens in this county that would attend meetings just to do what is best for their community. 

Egle said: and again the 4- 10 hour shifts have surfaced, suppose to start after next year, according to my Union rep. on the inside. County closed Fri/Sat/Sun. that's not back 3 day weekend off, except it screws up anyone with school kids that have to be picked up by a certain time, you can now add getting off at 5:30/6 p.m. to your 4-10hrs shifts. And if you needed to be somewhere around the old closing time of 430/5pm well to bad, readjust the schedule to 6:15/6:30 p.m.

Comment: As someone who has looked into and worked the 10 hours shift’s this is a good proposal for any government administration it really dose save money and it keeps the offices open so the working class can make it their to take care of business when they get off.  Now I see you point on the daycare issue but government entities are really suppose to be for the people they serve.  And it would just take a little more pre planning on your part.  After you have done it for a short time you will probable like it.   

 

Egle said: The next thing is they'll want to bring up the "stupid" dress code from a few months back. Wouldn't surprise me.  My f/m union rep. was telling me a couple months ago, that this goofy committee looking into dress code., actually said the girls can't wear a pair of $75.00 open toed high heel shoes, but tennis shoes were good to go! 

Comment: Ok this is a little more difficult it really depends on the job they are doing.  Depending on the job assignment and work place.  The heels could be considered unsafe and a possibility of injury if you tripped.  The other is the crazy sexual harassment thing, but doubt that is the issue doubt we are talking about foot fetishes here.

I guess you also know they however received a raise for themselves, continue to dip into travel and entertainment funds and use county credit cards for any expense, don't forget the $150,000.00 bonus slush fund for them and exec's. Commissioners threw a Christmass party for the pee-ons but Karson Turner, Janet Taylor and Kevin McCarthy did not even bother to show up and wish employees Merry Christmas. What a kick in the teeth to workers.

All of Hendry County needs a Union for protection from these commissioners, these goobers have already learned to balance the budget by putting there hands in the pee-ons pocket think there done? ROTFLMFAO

You are gonna be so screwed again they will go for a 4 day week but at 32hrs.

Your right johnnie. We have some real idiots in there. They already announced that "no raises for the lil guy" in the next year. What does that tell ya? Failure at the top, they couldn't even wait until the end of the next year to see if there plans or management will help? nope just no raises for the next year nice planning.  And again the 4- 10 hour shifts have surfaced, suppose to start after next year, according to my Union rep. on the inside. County closed Fri/Sat/Sun. that's not back 3 day weekend off, except it screws up anyone with school kids that have to be picked up by a certain time, you can now add getting off at 5:30/6 p.m. to your 4-10hrs shifts. And if you needed to be somewhere around the old closing time of 430/5pm well to bad, readjust the schedule to 6:15/6:30 p.m. none depending on the drive time. The County doesn't care about the workers!! and that's sad. The next thing is they'll want to bring up the "stupid" dress code from a few months back. Wouldn't surprise me.  My f/m union rep. was telling me a couple months ago, that this goofy committee looking into dress code., actually said the girls can't wear a pair of $75.00 open toed high heel shoes, but tennis shoes were good to go!  W.T.F. Maybe these ensteins need to plan on how to get money in the budget, how to do the right thing, and quit "F" ing with the hired help??

No wonder Mr. Maddox ran like Forrest Gump when his term was over.

The bunch that have now been elected on empty promises are a bunch we don't need, greedily lining their own pockets at the expense of voters and workers, mismanagement from these  easy to fool misguided and uninformed spineless goobers is leading this county into total chaos while breaking everyones pocketbook with exorbitant executives salaries, bonuses and perks.

When are the trodden on voters going to speak up? How about election time? How about management executives that actually live where they feed. How about Commissioners that have a clue about fiscal responsibility, how to attract and keep LOCAL talent, and foresight with future goals, thats unheard of with this bunch, were still renting and the County Government is almost 100 years old!!!

Now more employees are looking for protection from these guys with a union!!! Good grief!! The officials are the problem.

Change them or Hendry County will never change or grow. It is to much to ask they self reflect and resign in light of their list of inaction, mismanagement and failure.
