if all the commissioners who voted to purchase property for the judicial complex resign, i'll support a splost. until then, the roads and courthouse will be fine until new commissioners can be elected for the remaining positions. sawyer best be careful which commissioners he hitches his wagon to or he may be searching for a new job as well.

IF, and I mean IF!, the commissioners use the SPLOST to do only the infrastructure repairs that are badley needed (and yes, I include the courthouse in those needs) then I will vote for it this time.

If you are a conservative in this county you have got to be out of your mind to vote yes for this SPLOST
These folks will be raising your property taxes
It's hard to believe this paper would announce anything about registering for your homestead exemption ...when you don't have one.
Sonny did away with it almost two years ago raising property taxes.
For too long you been told this will keep your property taxes low.
So for those that believe only Democrats like to tax and spend ...Get ready for the Republican money train
Taxes...User fees, food tax, millage rate,Homestead exemption...look at it all because it will be raised...Watch and See
