Mr. Anderson Please answer the following questions.
1. Why does the county need your leadership? You worked for the second largest employer in the nation (USPS) for thirty years and you left with the same job you started mail carrier. If you didn't get promoted or receive a leadership role after 30 years with them, what makes you think district 5 needs you? or Walton county for that matter.
2. How come you don't respond to questions or posts on your facebook site unless someone wants to donate or get a T- Shirt?
3. Do you have unpaid tax liens or past unpaid judgments against you?
4. Your ads in the Defuniak herald say you have a plan to create 2500 new jobs? What is it?
5. You don't pay any property tax according to the tax roles and you have stated YOU will provide tax breaks to the small businesses.
A. How do you plan to give tax breaks without the rest of the BCC saying they want to too. What kind of Tax breaks do you mean?
B. Who will pay for the infrastructure that the small businesses and LLC's need to make money off of the tourists? (parking, beach access, drainage) Do you expect the residents to supplement small business.
6. Why are you getting so close to Cecilia Jones? Do you understand the intent of the sunshine laws or is that the dull part of "not the sharpest knife in the drawer" as one of your long time friends said.
7. How come the BCC minutes have no record of you ever addressing anything in front of the BCC. How many meetings have you ever participated in until you were recruited to run? Is zero the answer? Sounds like bought and paid for motivation to me.
8. What are your qualifications and education and experience that make you fit to manage an 8 billion dollar real estate portfolio for the citizens?
IF YOU DON"T ANSWER, YOU WILL JUST CONFIRM YOU ARE A PHONY!
Sorry I borrowed the title from a few races ago by Wile E. Coyote.

I heard Tony Anderson will repeal the 50 foot height limit and allow high rise condos, push for a middle beach road, and 4-lane 30A. Also repeal all restrictions on fast food and parking minimum requirements for restaurants. And no limits on weddings in private houses or on the beach. The beaches will be opened up and vendors allowed unlimited access to rent jet skis and conduct parasailing operations.I really like what phil is saying how nice would it be for a four lane on 30 A. I like jet skis also that would be fun to ride out to the new grayton turtle reef.

Someone has put the call out to the younger folks to get log ins for SoWal and have cute pics for their ID.
It looks like turning SoWal into Dayton Beach is on the agenda...
30a will systematically be destroyed.
Vendors are the #1 problem our beaches face.
Solve that problem and the others (Customary Use, Enforcement, etc.), Become much more manageable.
Personally, I like the way things were in the 80s & 90s round here. I realize change is a constant, but regulated change isn't that bad, especially round these parts. We need it.
Very divisive issues. Very bad outcomes.

Cecilia Jones CAMPAIGNING For Tony Anderson !
The golf cart pictured appears to be a county vehicle if one examines the seal and the BCC number affixed thereon. One wonders about the legality of a county vehicle, if this is such as it appears to be, being used in electioneering. One does not wonder about the appropriateness, legalities aside. When and where were the pix made? This seems at least as appropriate a referral to state authorities as the referral for the Our Generation folks.

I honestly could not care less who wins. My life will not be impacted in the slightest, and i'm guessing neither will anybody else's posting on/reading this site. I do apologize for hurting your feelings though.Everyone is definitely entitled to their opinions and viewpoints but to make the statement that our lives are not affected by our BCC members and their decisions is one of two things. It's either Ignorance or gross stupidity!!! So I guess you can choose which fits best! I will not offer apologies for the truth! So don't wait for it in future posts.

Let me promise you something...Our Generation's local handlers are in Puppet Tony's corner.
I promise you they are not and that's why it "appears" that everyone is chasing their tails trying to figure out who is behind those adds. (I admit, at first I believed that also.) You are going in the wrong direction.
The truth of who is actually behind them does explain why Bill Imfield and Bill Chapman were unsuccessful in their bid to get the State Attorney to investigate Our Generation. It also explains why Tony Anderson was never targeted in those ads.

However pointing out someone doesn't own a home is reaching and makes you look small in my opinion.
Stick to the issues and the hard questions. Name calling is immature and helps nothing.
Mr. Anderson was living in DFS , drawing disability payments from an accident he was involved as a mail carrier prior to moving or being planted in his current, more expensive living accommodations in SoWal. Bob Hudson posted his net worth elsewhere along with what little Anderson admitted to in his campaign finance report. It is what is NOT there that begs the question, how do you go from being disabled, barely being able to pay your bills to running a campaign (from the SOE website) that boasts of $105,679.00? It also begs the question of just how disabled T. Anderson actually is/was? Even at 100% disability the job as County Commissioner pays substantially more than the disability and he would lose it if elected. He got well rather quickly didn't he??
Bob Hudson also pointed out that there was 1 lien against T. Anderson on an automobile. I assure you it is not the newer model car he is currently driving. Since he obviously has not been elected yet and doesn't have the income of a Commissioner its rather redundant to ask how that along with the new digs, not to mention all the appearances, the new clothes, the nights out, the nice dinners, are being paid for on disability and/or retirement.
It's no "small" matter. They are HUGE RED FLAGS.

Some would say that began with the development of Seaside.
Not necessarily I. Although, large mansion homes on small lots wouldn't be my 1st choice.
Let's face it. 30A is the panhandle's "Malibu". The place has been purposely marketed to attract new money. And that new money likes to go large or go home...and they ain't goin' home. Every build able square inch will be developed. Then every square inch will be redeveloped.

What does LNR (my daughter) have to do with Phony Tony and who is suddenly funding his new political lifestyle?
LNR does not live or vote in Walton County. In fact, she doesn't even live in the State of Florida. That you have decided to drag my daughter into this is unreal.

I agree with you misty...dragging people's children into the mix just because their parents are involved isn't right. I'm so glad that you finally see that. Regardless of who those children are they have no more control over their parents actions than anyone else

Again, the difference between myself and C. Jones is that I am a private citizen. I did not drag C. Jones son into this and don't recall who brought it here to start with but the fact is, he is a vendor and C. Jones should not be voting on anything related to vendor issues and if elected neither should T. Anderson. Even if I were an elected official what I vote on and what my child does for a living is so far removed from this county and even this state it, wouldn't be an issue.

If I'm not mistaken c. Jones is not allowed to vote on vending issues but can offer her input. That's kinda like me trying to talk sensibly to you...i can talk till im blue in the face but that doesn't mean your going to act how I want you to...it's the same with the board when it's time to vote. But whatever..I'm not starting this 2 step with you again.

It's my opinion that Customary use and the vendor issues are directly related.
Beach Lover
So in your opinion how would customary use benefit her son and his vending business? I'm not being a smartass at all and genuinely want to understand your position on this.
Beach Fanatic
It's my opinion that Customary use and the vendor issues are directly related.I agree
A few years ago none of these issues existed.
We had a major influx of new tourists, many more than the area is and has been accustomed to.
That increase in people and NO increase is beach space and basically no new infrastructure caused overcrowding.
Beach issues were pushed further to the east and west, as tourists look for space.
Some of those tourists were rude and disrespectful to the property they relocated to (some of it actually Private).
This started to upset some owners, but there WAS a level of tolerance.
Almost overnight the vending on the beach exploded with multiple problems and confrontations (remember the Grayton Wedding Brawl with a knife)?
Some vendors tightened up their ship and don't cause problems. Others have become more aggressive and continue to give the beach vendor industry a bad name and negative perception by a significant amount t of residents and tourists.
The actions of a few continue to have people paint with a large brush and it gives those who want to comply and help solve the vendor issues a bad name as a few vendors will ruin it for the rest.
Customary Use is a direct result of beach front owners having enough of out of control tourists and vendors and having to put up signs and barriers.
Does any other community in the entire State of Florida have this problem?
