Who Finances A Better South Walton?

[Bob Hudson]

A Better South Walton has a 2016 Budget of $102,000 for its project to incorporate South Walton. They decline to release the names donors of $500.00 or more to the project. They should not hide their supporters ! The voters of South Walton should know who's driving this movement.

Agreed

Hopefully, they will be inspired to disclose this information given the WCTA's focus on this issue.

I thought sunshine laws applied to goverenment not private groups.

 

[Bob Wells]

Has the WCTA taken a stance on the incorporation issue? If so, what is the stance and why?

I believe you are correct, but since they are proposing an additional layer of government, it would be nice to know who the significant supporters are. Transparency is a good thing IMO.

Not at this time Bob. Two key pieces of the feasibility study have not been released.

We have written our analysis of their released data and hopefully they will release the balance soon.

We will release our analysis at the appropriate time.

Are they required to do that ????

No but from the beginning they stated they would be totally transparent.

They are a 501c4 and must submit a 990 for their 2016 fiscal year.

We feel its VERY Important to know who is funding the 102,000 budget.

Sounds like you believe a conspiracy is afoot.

 

[Bob Hudson]

Never said that their was a conspiracy of any kind.

We believe in transparency !
