A Florida Highway Patrol trooper, right, and Citrus County Sheriff’s Office deputy investigate a truck involved in a rollover crash the afternoon of Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2021, at the intersection of North Elkcam Boulevard and West Hampshire Boulevard in Citrus Springs, where two involved motorists had to be airlifted for treatment.
I want to thank all the voters who supported me in my run for Property Appraiser! There were only two legitimate candidates in the race for Property Appraiser, myself and Rob Tessmer Jr, I knew the only possible chance either one of us had is if I could get the courts to throw out Tim Reynard, Richard Schroeder and Cregg Dalton for violating the election laws. Although they all did I found that the court was on the same page and to continue on the state level would be futile. The irony of it all in terms of the 5th judicial circuit court which represents, 3 or 4 counties, these judges all have to go through the same electoral guidelines and laws of any other candidates for any office in the State of Florida. The one good thing that I accomplished was to have gotten rid of the maniacal reign of Leslie Cook, you can rest assured that if I hadn’t of ran, Mr. Cook would of had another term without opposition and the employees would of had to endure another 4 years of the continued pressure of the unforeseen eruptions of a madman!

There were 6 of them 3 for each propulsion unit. Redundancy was the name of that game. My Inspection stamp may be on the moon! After a government contract was cancelled I was laid off. Owning and operating The Store, in Whiting VT which was an Amoco gas station and country store and it had an apartment over the store making it a perfect fit while I attended college at Castleton State College during the day and came home and ran the The Store and gas station at night for four years while obtaining my B.A. in Sociology with a minor in Education. Taking a sabbatical after College to come to Florida, postponing my LSAT’s in preparation for law school, is where I meet my beautiful wife, Corl, who was working as a breakfast manager at Burger King and soon Vermont and the LSAT’s were forgotten. I met Bessie Reese of the Citrus County School Board and she suggested that I substitute teach while deciding where I wanted to work, which I did for a few years teaching at Crystal River High School, Lecanto High School and Hernando Elementary School. Working as a private contractor for Citrus County for 18 years, as owner-operator of Liberty Delivery with 15- 20 employees, we delivered all the county agenda’s and other documents to the various boards and offices of the county as well as other deliveries in and out of Citrus County included but not limited to, doctor offices for labs specimens, transporting medical equipment between the two hospitals in the county during their early reconstruction, Damron’s Parts (LKQ), etc. After missing 8 weeks work in 2005 because of my open heart surgery I went back to work at the Citrus County Property Appraiser’s Office and worked the next 14 years in a power chair that I plan to continue using when elected Property Appraiser. Working for 14 years in the Citrus County Property Appraisers Office, retiring as a Field Appraiser and having 32 years accumulated experience with the intricacies of Citrus County government in all areas puts me an in unparalleled position to take over the reins of property appraiser.
My son gave me a check for Mother’s Day and I went into Regions Bank in Homosassa the facility where it was drawn from and because I did not have an account there they charge me $2.00 to cash my Mother Day’s gift! What’s wrong with this picture this isn’t the way it use to be, things are terribly wrong in this country and although this may seem trival after all it’s only two dollars, two dollars can nearly buy you a loaf of bread, it shows the depth of conniving and surreptitious activities going on everyday to the detriment of the people!

David Carpenter’s A1 Locksmith does not fall into the Ugly category but certainly does into the Bad and doesn’t have real far to go to be an official Ugly Business here in Citrus County!
He started my van with the electronic key and fob and acted like the fob would be reprogram and had to leave it was raining and said the fob should be reprogramed when the rain stopped I went out and discovered the key fob was not reprogrammed and called him. He said it would cost me another $35.00 service charge to have him come back out for the key fob even though he said it was programed or I could come out to his place and he would fix it. Went out to his place and long story short everything costed $120.00 with key fob not program, glad he got the van started not happy with the cost or his attitude of being correct but could not program the fob. It was clear he did not have the means or knowledge to reprogram the key fob. The business van has no discernable markings indicating the business, it’s a big white Nissan Van.

Hi hope I’ve reached sound off at the Chronicle. Here’s what I have to say, regarding T N R, trapped, neutered, and release of feral cats in Citrus County, I knew an elderly man in Inverness about 3 years ago, who had much monetarily, yet road his bicycle every day, the baskets stuffed with cat food, to feed the feral colonies.
You could see paper plates set out in particular areas around in Inverness, either the County or was it the City of Inverness arrested him for breaking the law, against feeding feral cats.
He continue anyway, knowing that they would starve unless somebody took action. Old John died about 2 years ago, I thought that I read, Trapped, Neutered, Release, would become the practice?
Does anyone know what’s happened, or not, for saving John’s cats? Thank you.
