City Commissioner Judy Reiker threw the taxpayers under the bus with her vote to keep the Anglers Club lease in place. I also cringed when she said "A deal is a deal is a deal." I voted for Reiker and so did my husband. I will make sure she is never re-elected!
These "gentlemen" as Reiker referred to the Anglers, are certainly "in my opinion," not gentlemen. They are self-serving ego maniacs that feel they deserve a free ride.
How sad.
A shining moment occurred during Tuesday night's overdrawn dis cussion on the Angler's Club lease. And that was the announcement of Althea Phillord as the city's new finance director and first African-American department head in the history of City Hall.
That alone puts in perspective what is the biggest artificial issue of New Smyrna Beach city politics over the last couple of years: Without a doubt, the Anglers Club lease. This is a shining example of government at its worst and the amount of money and time spent on it is an absolute disgrace.
