Lawsuit Filed Alleging Hillsborough County Rail Tax Ballot Language is Unlawful
From: Eye
On Tampa Bay
Posted by: Sharon Calvert
A lawsuit was filed Wednesday in Hillsborough County by Plaintiff Karen Jaroch challenging the 30 year ONE PERCENT rail/transit tax ballot language on the November ballot. The lawsuit alleges the ballot language is unlawful and deceitful and should be removed from the ballot.
The lawsuit filed in the 13th Circuit Court is
case #22-CA-007158. The Complaint can be found at the Hillsborough County Clerk
of the Court website here by
searching on the case number. The Complaint can also be found here.
The Complaint asks that the rail tax ballot
language be ruled defective and the County and the Supervisor of Elections
prohibited from placing the ballot title and summary language on the November
ballot.
This Complaint alleges
“this referendum is destined to the same legal fate as the prior initiative
because the County’s ballot title and ballot summary are facially
defective.”.
According to the lawsuit, per Florida Statute
section 212.055(1), only one question can be put before voters to answer. The
voters can answer yes or no to a 30 year one-percent discretionary sales surtax
levied with funds deposited into a related trust fund and used for
transportation uses authorized by State law and created in Hillsborough County
for 30 years for transportation uses authorized by section 212.055(1) and
selected by the Board of County Commissioners?
But the rail tax ballot summary language fails
to present a simple and narrow question. It appears to make promises to
residents in specific areas they will receive favored transportation
improvements. The ballot language lumps areas in unincorporated Hillsborough
with the city municipalities of Tampa, Temple Terrace and Plant City as if they
are municipalities too.
Below is Hillsborough County’s ballot language
(ends at Yes/No).
Orange County put a 20 year one percent transportation sales surtax on the November ballot to pay for SunRail and other transportation and transit improvements. Below is the Orange County ballot language.
Jaroch, a resident and taxpayer in Hillborough
County, is a former Board member and Vice Chair of HART transit agency.
Hillsborough County still owes Hillsborough
County taxpayers $560 MILLION of unlawfully collected sales tax proceeds. That
huge refund mess is a result of the 2018 All for Transportation rail tax being
thrown out by the Florida Supreme Court as illegal and unlawful.
Creative
Loafing has already spun a hit piece that included:
Hillsborough County
Commissioner Kimberly Overman told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that the need for
public transportation is urgent, which is why the county commission seeks to
let the voters decide on it.
“Everything that I
have heard from our residents is that we need to invest in public
transportation,” Overman told CL. She added that the county commission took
care to take their time crafting the ballot language to comply with state
laws. Tyler Hudson, co-chair of All For Transportation, a grassroots group
that works to address Hillsborough County's public transit crisis, said that
the lawsuit aims to keep voters from deciding on transportation.
“This is a frivolous
ploy to deny voters the chance to fix Hillsborough County’s transportation
crisis," Hudson said. "A small group of obstructions have already
delayed by 4 years much needed road, safety and transit projects which has had
catastrophic consequences for the community. Lawsuits don’t fill potholes, and
voters deserve the opportunity to decide their transportation future at the
ballot box.”
Hudson, Overman and All for Transportation are
the same “small” group of people and wealthy special interests donors who put
the 2018 ILLEGAL rail tax on the ballot. They created the huge refund mess and
are the losers of the lawsuit that threw the rail tax out.
Why should voters trust them? The ballot
language is basically what All for Transportation used in their illegal rail
tax. Every voter should be skeptical because they should never endure another
ballot legal issue causing another huge refund mess.
We will update as the lawsuit proceeds.

Piense en los demás cuando piense en la vida después de la Muerte In Spanish and English
Una encuesta de testamentos de Caring.com en 2022, revela que uno de cada tres estadounidenses sin planes patrimoniales piensa que tiene muy pocos bienes para dejar.
Florida News Connection

By: Trimmel Gomes
Pensar en la vida despues de la muerte es
desalentador, pero podria ayudar el pensar en la vida de sus seres queridos en
caso de que usted ya no este presente. Los expertos dicen que esa es una forma
de motivarse para crear una ultima voluntad y un testamento.
Agosto es el Mes
Nacional de Hacer un Testamento, sin embargo, siete
de cada diez estadounidenses actualmente no tienen un
testamento o un plan patrimonial.
Jami Coleman acaba de celebrar la apertura de su practica, Coleman Law, P.A. en
Tallahassee, donde ayuda a las personas a desarrollar un plan patrimonial. Ella
dice que para algunos es muy dificil pensar en eso.
"Cuando se enteran de, 'Oh, vamos a redactar nuestro testamento', piensan
que estan invitando a la muerte, y ese no es el caso necesariamente,"
asegura Coleman. "Lo que se esta haciendo y una forma de pensarlo es que
estas poniendo tus asuntos en orden. Al igual que preparar y planificar otros
asuntos en la vida, este es inevitable y se debe tratar de planificar y
prepararse para eso."
Coleman dice que es mucho el tratar de rastrear y manejar los asuntos de
alguien, mientras se esta de duelo. Ella dice que muchas veces se prolonga el
proceso de duelo de sus seres queridos cuando los asuntos no estan en orden.
Ella recomienda encontrar un profesional de planificacion patrimonial que pueda
ayudarlo a pensar en cosas como el que hacer con sus bienes, asi como crear un
testamento en vida, que detalle si le gustaria mantenerse con vida por medios
artificiales, si se encuentra incapacitado.
Sam Young, del grupo Compassion & Choices, dice que tener un testamento
legal actualizado es una forma poderosa de proteger a sus seres queridos, tomar
decisiones importantes sobre el futuro en sus propios terminos y apoyar las
causas que valora.
"Esto es algo que es realmente un documento critico y esencial para cada
persona, y es algo que queremos alentar y ayudarlos a completar," dice
Young.
En colaboracion con la firma FreeWill.com para
ayudar a las personas a poner sus asuntos en orden, Compassion & Choices
tambien ayuda a las personas a prepararse para el futuro desde la comodidad de
su hogar, con una herramienta en linea gratuita y facil de usar disponible en
compasionandchoices.org. Young dice que, hasta ahora, mas de un millon de
personas han utilizado la plataforma gratuita para crear su testamento
legalmente valido.
ENGLISH VERSION
Think of Others When
Thinking of Life After Death
A Caring.com 2022 Wills
Survey finds that one out of three Americans without estate plans think they
have too few assets to leave behind.
By: Trimmel Gomes
Thinking of life after death is daunting, but it
might help to think of the lives of your loved ones in the event you are no
longer around. Experts say it is one way to get motivated to create a last will
and testament.
August is National
Make-a-Will Month, yet some seven
in 10 Americans currently do not have a will or estate plan.
Jami Coleman, an estate planning attorney in Tallahassee, said for some, it is
very difficult to think about.
"When they hear about, 'Oh, let's go draft our will,' they think they are
inviting death, and that's not necessarily the case," Coleman pointed out.
"What you're doing and one way to think of it is you're getting your
affairs in order. Just like you prepare and plan other milestones in your life,
this is one that's inevitable, and you should try to plan and prepare for that
as well."
Coleman acknowledged it is a lot to try to track down and manage someone's
affairs while grieving. She added it often prolongs the grieving process for
your loved ones when affairs are not in order. She recommended finding an
estate-planning professional who can help think through things like what to do
with your assets, as well as creating a living will, which goes into details
about whether you would like to be kept alive by artificial means, if
incapacitated.
Sam Young, senior director of legacy and planned giving for Compassion &
Choices, said having a legal, up-to-date will is a powerful way to protect your
loved ones, make important decisions about the future on your own terms, and
support the causes you value.
"This is something that is really a critical and essential document for
every person to have," Young stressed. "It's something that we want
to encourage them and help them complete."
In collaboration with the FreeWill.com to
help people get their affairs in order, Compassion & Choices is helping
people prepare for the future, right in the comfort of their own home, with a
free and easy-to-use online tool. Young stated more than a million people have
so far used the free platform to build their legally valid will.

The Midterm Elections in Florida What To Look For In The Gubernatorial Race
Opinion
by:
E. Eugene Webb PhD
Now that the midterms are behind us, it is time to look at what Floridians will be dealing with as they consider their ballots for the midterm elections. Let us start from the top of the ballot with the race for Florida's governor.
When it comes to Ron DeSantis and Charlie
Crist, there could hardly be a clearer contrast between two political
candidates.
DeSantis, very Trump like, has proven his
willingness to use the power and authority granted to him as governor of
Florida to move things in his way. Not necessarily in the way of the majority
of Floridians think.
If you think back to your grade school,
middle school, and even high school days, you will probably remember at least
one, if not several, bullies that you had to deal with.
Now look inside the Ron DeSantis press
package. What you see is what you get. Somebody who enjoys power and likes to
bully his way through the issues.
There is another thing to consider if
you're planning to vote for Ron DeSantis.
When you cast your vote for DeSantis this
November, you may very well be really voting for Jeanette Nunez for governor.
Nunez, a former member of the Florida House of Representatives, was Ron Desantis's
running mate for Lieutenant governor in the 2018 Florida gubernatorial
election.
Nunez has been the quintessential
Lieutenant Governor for Ron DeSantis. Her tenure can pretty much be summarized
in the statement, “out of sight out of mind.” Just exactly what the Florida Governor
likes. No competition for the spotlight.
DeSantis has made it perfectly clear he
would like to be on the ballot in the presidential election in 2024. Preferably
at the top of the ballot as the presidential nominee of the Republican Party.
At the very best if DeSantis is reelected,
he will be a part-time governor spending most of his working hours campaigning
for the Republican nomination.
Should DeSantis inadvertently succeed in
his Presidential bid, Florida’s new governor would be Jeanette Nunez.
Think about that when you vote.
The other contender in the race is Saint
Petersburg based Charlie Crist. In the interest of full disclosure, I have known
Charlie Crist for years and supported him in almost every election he's
participated in over the years.
The contrast between the two candidates
is striking to say the least. Crist is as far from being a bully and a power-hungry
politician as the East is from the West.
Charlie Crist is the real deal what you
see is what you get. I've been following politics in Florida for over a decade,
and I can honestly say I've never seen anybody walk the talk more closely than
Charlie Crist.
He will come to the statehouse with a new
view, and Florida needs a new view.
Florida needs some time to cool off
politically. To get beyond the wild rhetoric of the Trump era. The Florida
State government needs to begin once again to function like a government and
not the arm of a radical political party.
You are hearing a lot of talk right now
in the media about the cast of candidates at the Republicans are putting up
following the midterms and how unqualified the media thinks they are.
That's not an issue with Charlie Crist. I
encourage you to watch any debates that take place between Crist and DeSantis,
pay careful attention to the political ads, their tenor and the effort to
denigrate and demean the opposition. My hope is you won't see much of that from
the Chris campaign, although some defense against the DeSantis onslaught will
be necessary, all of that hate rhetoric is not who Charlie Crist is.
Charlie Crist will come to the governor's
office with plenty of experience both political and practical when it comes to
governing the state of Florida. He will turn down the pressure; he will not be
meddling in every local government from the school board to the County Sheriff,
and he will be moving to do what is best in this state for all Floridians.
The governor's race here is an important
one not just for political reasons but for the practical governing of one of
this country's largest states.
We don't need a governor with his own
private army. We need a governor who knows how to lead with courage and
compassion and not one who pushes his agenda as the bully an chief.

Lawsuit Alleges Two Pasco County School Board Candidates Are Unqualified to Run in District 1 Due to Their "Lack of Residency" Required by State Law
From: Eye
On Tampa Bay
Posted by: Sharon Calvert
Voters in Pasco County take note of a lawsuit recently filed regarding two candidates who filed to run for Pasco County School Board District 1.
Case #2022-CA-2111
was filed August 15th in the 6th District Circuit Court in Pasco County.
Plaintiff Steve Meisman, also a candidate who filed to run for Pasco County
School Board District 1, filed the Complaint which can be found in its
entirety here.
Meisman is seeking
an emergency Declaratory and Injunctive Relief that Defendants Al Hernandez and
James Washington failed to properly qualify for election as a member of the
Pasco County School Board District 1. Meisman also requests that Defendant
Brian Corley, Pasco County Supervisor of Elections, decertify Hernandez and
Washington as candidates in that race.
 |
Case #2022-CA-2111
Florida law
REQUIRES that each candidate for School Board at the time they
"qualify" be a resident - live in - the District for the election
they are seeking. Candidates must sign an oath they are qualified to run under
the Constitution and the Laws of Florida.
The lawsuit states
a Tampa Bay Times report
on June 30 alleges Al Hernandez, a Republican, bought a small 884 square foot
rundown home in Zephyrhills - that is in District 1. But Hernandez has never
lived in the rundown unlivable home because he still lives in his 4346 square
foot pool home in a gated community in Odessa - that is NOT in District 1.
Apparently Zephyrhills
code enforcement has now shut down all work being done on Hernandez's 2BR/1B
unlivable home because Hernandez never pulled any permits.
Hernandez still has
Homestead on his Odessa home. The lawsuit alleges Hernandez was NOT living in
the District 1 - his Zephyrhills shanty property - at the time he submitted his
qualifying papers and therefore is NOT a qualified candidate to run for Pasco
County School Board District 1.
Pasco County SOE
Corley told the Times his office has no investigative powers and that someone
would have to take the matter up with the Florida Elections Commission or
through a lawsuit.
Meisman's lawsuit
also alleges the other candidate running for Pasco County School Board District
1, Democrat James Washington, failed to qualify for "lack of
residency".
Apparently, when
Washington submitted his qualifying paperwork he listed his residence as a PO
Box in Saint Leo, Florida. The lawsuit alleges that while Saint Leo is in
District 1, no one can "reside" at a PO Box address.
According to the
lawsuit, since Florida law requires a "residency" address, a PO Box
is not a valid residence in determining School Board District boundaries or
"Voter Precinct Designation on the respective web portals".
Meisman's lawsuit
also states that on June 17, 2022 at the close of the mandatory qualification
period, Washington was being evicted from his residence in Hudson, Florida
which is a Pasco County School Board District 5 residency. Therefore, when
Washington "qualified" on June 13, 2022, he was still residing in
District 5.
Ironically
Washington was quoted in the June 30th Times report stating:
“Intent is good,”
said Washington, a Pasco High teacher who moved into District 1 before the
qualifying date.. “But intent is not what the letter of the law says.”
Meisman also
alleges, that at the June 16, 2022 West Pasco Realtor's Association Candidate
Forum, Washington had an opportunity to definitively state he lived in the
District 1 residency area when he qualified. However, Washington failed to
confirm he satisfied those requirements though he had declared it on his
Candidate Oath just 3 days prior.
The lawsuit
requests the Court to declare that Hernandez and Washington failed to qualify
to run for Pasco County School Board District 1 in the manner stated by Florida
law and rule they are ineligible to be on the 2022 Primary and November General
Election ballots.
The lawsuit
includes evidentiary Exhibits at the end of the Complaint.
Meisman, a
Republican, requests the Court to either:
Enjoin Defendant
Pasco SOE Corley to cancel the Pasco School Board District 1 election and name
Steve Meisman as the only qualified candidate and unopposed winner, or
Enjoin Defendant
Pasco SOE Corley to hold a special election between the remaining qualified
candidates if the Court's decision is not rendered before the 2022 November
General election.
The latest Court
documents found at the Pasco County
Court of the Clerk website reflect a Case Management Conference
Hearing was called by Judge Susan Barthle for yesterday, August 17th at
4:30PM.
Voters in Pasco
County take note and keep watching this case.
If allegations are
true, shanty homes, evictions, evading State Law and not being truthful on
Candidate Oath paperwork are big red flags.
We will continue to
update this as the Court case proceeds.
Update: We understand
the Zephyrhills code enforcement removed their stop work order on the unlivable
house that Al Hernandez, a Regional VP with Humana, used as his residence
address in his Candidate paperwork.
According to
this Tampa Bay Times report
of July 22, 2022 a Complaint regarding Hernandez has also been filed with the
Florida Elections Commission:
Jessica
Jecusco, a Florida Virtual School teacher who lives in Land O’Lakes, has filed
a complaint with the Florida Elections Commission alleging that District 1
candidate Al Hernendez should be disqualified from the Aug. 23 ballot. She
claims that he did not live in the east Pasco region by the June 17 qualifying
deadline, as required by law.

FL Educators Decry Classroom 'Politicization' as Gov Relaxes Teaching Rules
August 17, 2022
By: Trimmel Gomes
As Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defends and expands
his call to have military veterans bypass the teacher certification process to
become educators, former educators say the move is a dangerous gamble despite
the current teacher shortage.
On Tuesday, DeSantis said he wants to expand
a new law allowing military veterans to become classroom
teachers without a bachelor's degree, including retired first responders such
as police, firefighters and EMTs.
Ulysses Floyd, a retied teacher and member of the Orange County Classroom
Teachers Association, said he taught classes when he served in the military and
later used his experience to become a certified teacher. He said he does not
like the proposed changes because the certification process ensures you know
what to do as an educator.
"You must be certified in the area in which you are teaching," Floyd
contended. "Just because you have a bachelor's and something else other
than teaching, so I think, in order for you to be able to teach, you must know
how, what you're doing, how to do it."
Describing college education as "overtaken by ideology," DeSantis
argued the certification requirement is too strict. The state's new recruitment
program will waive exam fees for the state teacher's certification exam for
retired military and first responders, but participants must have a bachelor's
degree.
Florida currently has a shortage of more than 6,000 teachers, according to the
Florida Education Association.
Vanessa Tillman, a retired teacher and board member of Florida Education Association,
said people may not realize one child brings at least six personalities. She
explained when you multiply it by 18 children for a single teacher to manage,
politicians overlook a lot of work.
"I do feel the political era is horrible as to politicians wanting to tell
teachers how to teach," Tillman asserted. "They want to legislate
everything and not understand we are there to educate the whole child."
Tillman emphasized there should be no room for what she called the
politicization of classrooms on issues such as Critical Race Theory, cutting
district funding, and the rise of politics in nonpartisan school board races.
DeSantis and Florida Department of Education Commissioner Manny Diaz also
rolled out a second proposal tailored to current classroom teachers: a
scholarship program to allow current teachers to get master's degrees to teach
dual enrollment classes.
