The sales tax issue is heating up

In the next few days, I will post some information from a public records request that was fulfilled today concerning the $1 per hour raises for all Santa Rosa county employees "contingent upon" the passing of the upcoming local option sales tax as stated in a recent PNJ article

The raise for county employees is in the budget, not contingent on the sales tax vote.

C. that is not what was portrayed in the PNJ article we have already discussed. They have weaponized the employee base to be at thier defense, which is a good stratagy! The problem is if this tax does't pass, thier 3 year phase in of the raises will be killed DOA at next years budget negotiations and we will still be without impact fees that could free up general fund dollars to continue the raises. The $ for raises is always contingent upon money in the budget to fund them. Like i said tho, this isnt about the raises, its about lost vs. Impact fees. Lets not make it about the employees who i am sure work hard, for the most part.
