Deborah, I have two dogs and am happy with a dog friendly island so please stop with the chronic militant plea for a leash free dog park. You got a lot and thank you for your efforts but now you're starting to sound like a spoiled brat.

Our city councilors have more guts than you any day of the week Beowulf. Just sitting at meetings and listening to people complain constantly makes them anything but cowards.
For your information, they were not elected to reduce taxes although they have consistently done so for the 10 years of incorporation. They were elected by the majority to keep Marco Islands level of service and balance a near impossible budget. I think given the circumstances they are doing a great job.

Kiester, my intentions were noble but you, like all of your friends think it is acceptabe to insult those you disagree with but it is apparently not ok to insult you or your vocal minority friends. Really sounds like a double standard to me. Also, what fight do you have in this? Sounds like you have a personal vendetta against Tucker. Put your emotions aside and do your job! Isn't it your job to save the city taxpayers money? If you really wanted to show us what a great guy you were then maybe you would embrace Tuckers proposal and consider it if it saves us all money. You have shown us your true colors too many times. i hope you run for office again just so you can be beat down and thown out with the rubbish!
Shame on you Mr. Kiester! As our representative you should be above all of this. Your involvment in these blogs may be a violation of the Sunshine Law which you have already shown us you have no consideration for the law! You are the only councilor on council that has broken the law with the exception of Walter Pierson. You should be recalled or resign.

I met Roger Hall one time at the library when he was campaigning and I was turned off almost immediately. I think we're all a litle shell shocked by what Hall and others tried to do to our community but the guy is entitled to his opinion and perception of the facts so let's cut the guy a break. I know I am guilty also but the posts above are pretty nasty.

Loved the letter Monte. The truth hurts the CAVE DWELLERS and the facts escape them!

Ron, I'm sure you meant well but you couldn't be more misinformed if you tried. Frankly, I don't have the energy to correct all of the misinformation you printed.

“At some point if this thing gets legs, we’re going to have to hire some lawyers to work on condemnation, some accountants to figure out our valuation and probably a PR firm so we can fight this thing the best we can,” he said.
THe statement above made by LCEC CEO is a threat. Why are they so against the city doing a study? Could the city save money and how much? Maybe we have been fleeced by LCEC and they don't want us to find out.
Something to think about before we condemn the study any further.

It is ironic that the people that step up to do so much for our community are so often attacked by the people that do so little. I am not a fan of Tucker but that shouldn't play into the equation; can he do the job, is it legal per the charter and can he save the taxpayers money? If it was based on personality alone he would have never gotten elected. Tucker is a nasty arrogant guy but Roger Hall makes Tucker look like Mother Theresa.
