There are some statutes that kick in on the school district side. If there are any on the BCC side, it has never been mentioned at a budget meeting.

Boys and Girls Club Funding
FYI- The Boys and Girls Club recieves no funding from the BCC. However, they have been very supportive of it mission, some are personal donors. I serve on the executive board for the BGC of the Emerald Coast and believe deeply in its programming. I invite each of you to learn more about the BGCEC by visiting our website at Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast We are working hard to expand our programming in DeFuniak to include younger kids as we are currently in need of more space for our teen program. To that end, we do plan to step up!
Thank you for recognizing the value of the Positive Place for Kids in our community.
Grit and Grace, Boys and Girls Club, YMCA, ARC, are good programs. Maybe they will step up their fund-raising.
As to county spending, are you saying that our former Sheriff did not get any money from 2005-2008? I was under the impression that he was spending money so fast he needed a printer.
You are 100% on target about collecting all the taxes and stop the cheating.

Okay the first suggestion I guess I would have is to make everyone pay their property taxes. It is unfortunate that you can lose your property in this State for not pay property taxes, but those are the rules, and I do not believe a county commission should be able to allow some people to not have to pay.

Did you ever find a source for the complete break down of the budget wrobert? I looked around the walton site but couldn't find anything but power point slides. They're spending our money and they give us coloring books to understand it. Go figure.

It is just now due from everyone to be turned in and compiled. They do not have budget hearings until July. I will try to remember to let you know when I get it and send you a copy.
