Yesterday, the Hernando Today ran their last article on waste in Hernando County government. Whether you liked their reporting, or not, it must be said that the Hernando Today gave everyone the opportunity to voice an opinion on this year's negotiations of the local county government budget. Yesterday's article included comments from 4 0f the 5 Hernando County Commissioners while a rebuttal from the county administrator,Gary Kuhl was printed in last week's edition.
Pro and Con letters about county government spending have consumed on the Hernando Today's editorial pages for weeks. I have made my comments on this format, as have others in our community on the local talk radio and at the podium of the county commission meetings. The one voice that has been remarkably silent on the budget issues is that of Hernando County County Commission Chairman Jeff Stabins and it has left a deafening roar throughout our county, with many of us questioning why we call this representative government.
