Congratulations

Published: February 5, 2008

Congratulations to Commissioner Don Bates and one other commissioner for opposing the county asphalt plant. According to the Jan. 26 edition of Highlands Today, if Amendment One passes, Highlands County won't have the money to build roads, including completion of Sebring Parkway.

Anyone who has the audacity to approve purchase of an asphalt plant, which will be another albatross like the Sebring Power Plant was, must reside in La La Land.

It seems redundant to mention that interest on the $3.3 million loan would likely run $165,000 per year. This plant would be a disgrace in the annals of decision making by county governments. The main benefit from this is our choices for commissioner have been decided for next election.
