It's almost budget time for the county, and in that, we have some tough choices to make about how we deal with how much money we collect in taxes and how we spend it.

Many people have said “we need you to get business here” and they assume that there is a list of companies we can call and work with to get businesses, to come.

I want to use this article to talk about an issue that should be addressed as it affects approximately 28,000 veterans and their families -- the issue is our veterans service office.
The Veterans Service Office -- what the Veterans Service Office does for us and the challenges that they face in being able to provide services that directly deal with the Federal Veterans Administration, a task that they alone have a unique ability to do above o

Why does it matter if impact fees are increased?
It should matter to you, the blue collar worker, who works hard for your dollar.
With impact fees there is always a chain reaction: if you make it more expensive to build here, people will be less likely to come here at all, which would affect the economy of the county greatly, including your family and their potential earnings.

Every year government creates more regulations, increases cost to business and comes up with programs that are supposedly there to help, yet what often happens is that government is actually defeating the free market values that is the core of our American way of life, instead of helping.
The regulations alone are not the problem, but are exacerbated by the growth of rules that follow and the interpretation of those rules at the lowest level.

At a previous commission meeting, we addressed the issue of Impact Fees.
The majority of people who came before the board had issues of maintenance and even our own presentation suggested we use Impact Fees for debt, to pay for previous projects not specifically correlated to what impact fees are supposed to be used for, which is IMPACT.

Couple of happy updates to share with you all this week.
You may remember that earlier this year I wrote about a small, but nonetheless significant, issue facing many of our residents in southern Spring Hill.
This problem concerns the lack of sidewalk on Quality Drive. Combined with the absence of a crosswalk, handicapped and elderly residents are prevented from having safe access to the hospital and local shopping center.

I spent 38 years in law enforcement.
From patrolling the night shift in a police department in a Chicago suburb to serving as Sheriff of Hernando County in Florida, I have been witness to unimaginable acts by horrendous criminals.

A week ago, our neighbors to the east suffered a homegrown terrorist attack. The shooter was an American citizen. His father (from Afghanistan) is an open and vocal supporter of the Taliban.

We’ve got a few big items for you this week: House passage of the National Defense Authorization Act, the Military Construction/VA appropriations bill and a significant federal resource package to combat the impending Zika threat.
I’ve talked plenty in recent weeks about the Defense Authorization, so I won’t take up your time with it at this time.
