A little bit of this and that for you on this Tuesday. First, I want to point you to an informal poll that I am running. Presidential elections and the like have tons of polls that come out prior to the election. They give an idea on how candidates may
Hope everyone had a great weekend! Today, we are going to talk about the special master hearing for the Lecanto sand mine that happened on Friday. For me, this is not necessarily about stopping a sand mine from happening. The area that they are doing this has historically been mining
At the last meeting on May 26th, Commissioner Rebecca Bays brought up that the county should offer to end the lawsuit it is in with Right Rudder Aviation. That was very much unexpected. If you recall, about a year ago, Right Rudder's contract was terminated by the county
I am back from my work trip and ready to get back into things related to Citrus County. Up first, the special master hearing tomorrow for the sand mine off of Homosassa Trail. This can be read about here. To catch up... the mine location has been operating shortly after

Happy Tuesday! I am out of town this week doing a few portrait sessions in the beautiful state of Hawaii. The regular job has its perks for sure. This also means that the updates this week will likely be a bit sporadic. I will still be reading/researching things. I
Today, we are going to talk a bit about the CoreCivic contract and the desire for Sheriff Vincent to take over and operate the jail. This came to a head at the last BOCC meeting on May 12th when Commissioner Finegan brought forward a motion to cancel the current contract
I hope everyone is having a great Thursday so far! In a rare moment, I have been sitting and staring at the screen trying to figure out what to write. The problem is there is so much to cover, I do not even know where to begin. I had an

I hope you all had a great weekend! Last week was chaos around here. My phone was ringing off the hook most of the week with various people asking questions, wanting to chat about what happened, etc. Then all the messages... The comments on the page.. It was crazy. Today,
