Any and every Miami Springs taxpayer has a right to know where their tax monies are going- to whom, for what services and when, at what cost, and what the users were charged for those services. There are numbers posted all over the MS website, some of them accurate, but very few details about the pool and how THOSE numbers were derived. Why is that? The City Manager first said there were contracts with the swim teams, but that as quickly changed to "use agreements", and finally he admitted those dont exist either and they are here on a handshake and a "gentlemans agreement". No other dept in the City is run on those "agreements- why the pool? is that any way to run a business? provide a service? get fair market value? avoid, at least, the appearances of impropriety, if not illegality? demonstrate to the residents that their taxes are being well spent providing services to Springs residents? which IS the intent, no? Nobody has responded to the questions asked about the Optimist (lack) of connection- why is THAT? NO factual replies are forthcoming on ANY of the questions raised here- is that because there ARE no replies that make any sense? Like the posted revenues at the pool- pure fiction? creative accounting? Facts and figures have been presented here- disprove them if you can, with YOUR documented facts and verified figures. Lets talk numbers that are believable.
