Publisher, Wakulla.com: 

At the October 16 meeting of the County Commission the Citizens of Wakulla county learned the following:  road paving remains political, there is no public road paving schedule (the matrix is merely a "guide" to the roads that are unpaved), there is no budgeted money available for roads, and previous commitments to neighborhoods (4/17/06 BCC Meeting) would not be honored.  How was the 1 cent road tax expended and who actually makes decisions regarding which roads are to be paved?  For the citizens who inquire there is no structure, process or oversight of this important issue.

I urge the Wakulla News to regularly report on the progress of road paving in Wakulla county so that the citizens can observe their politics at work, supporting developments and special interests rather than neighborhoods that have justified critical needs.  No plan, no process, no money.  Is this efficient governance?
