For roads and bridges?

Bob Hudson would you care to expand on that little bomb you dropped on the BCC tonight that they were unaware of? And it's been going on since 1914?

Had to listen to Sara C. Boo Hoo about how DFS "needs" this money. Her plea implies knowledge of this long term misappropriation of funds and it needs to stop.

Stop and then the taxpayer need to get their money BACK.

This is taxation without representation.

We don't get to vote in DFS elections...

Pay us back DeFuniak!

Yeah, they should be forced to pay us back. Bankrupt the city of Defuniak Springs, it could never go wrong....

Unless you talk with the folks who hated living in Cedar Grove.

I found it most interesting that Commissioner Comander called the road & bridge fiasco a "witch hunt". Seems to be the new answer by commissioners to anything brought to their attention that shows malfeasance or misfeasance !

Shame on them ! Shame on her !

It appears that it was required by law until 1984 when the R&B statute was repealed. The payments should have stopped in 1985 and didn't. Reading the minutes from the era it appears the BCC at the time did not want to pay the money to the city and there was a dispute about how much was owed to the city. Most of the players from that era are dead so it would be hard to determine how this error was not caught and stopped 25-30 years ago.

I find it really hard to believe that Clayton Adkinson the City Attorney didn't know the R&B statue had been repealed.
