Who would have guessed? Not counting the more than 3,000 voters that voted against the current crop of politicos in Marco Island (most of whom have sold their homes or are trying to), this couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of people. Hope this trend continues and you all get what you wanted for Marco Island. Glad to be gone.

Leroy, I like you voted for Waldack. Unfortunately for me, I failed to do my homework and learned about this fellow only after the election.

On Letter to the Editor: Mislead by misinformation

Posted on July 11 at 6:56 a.m.

I really thought I would never write in these blogs again. But like all good intentions this one too must be dropped. Mr. Tucker, you are a real piece of work. You'r statement that Mr. Enman was "attempting to malign and smear Judge Garretson ... ” is incredible. How is it that a public document by the Florida Courts maligns anyone? Are you implying that the findings and opinion, published and endorsed by the Florida Supreme Court are false or contrived. There is nothing "personal" in Mr. Enman's actions. He simply gave factual documented evidence relating past behvior of a member of your firm to a group of elected officials trying to decide if they want to hire your firm. Unfortunatly for your firm, your partner's behavior was found to be serious enough to document and record in the Court's public records. That behavior was not Mr. Enman's doing. Mr. Enman is only the messenger. You should have known that this information would be made public again. After all, it was your decision to send the letter to the Council asking that your firm be considered for the job, not Mr. Enman. Take responsiblity and be accountable. Judge Garretson may have been rehabilitated by your firm but it was your action that led to the direct further disclosure of her past behavior not Mr. Enman's actions. You not only owe Mr. Enman an apology but also Judge Garretson. It was your action and desire to promote your firm that exposed your partner to further examination.

On Former Marco councilor withdraws request for city attorney position

Fossil: Sorry, been out of town for awhile. Trying to catch up. I meant for this post to be placed on the article Ms. Williams wrote and published on Monday April 7, 2008 "Marco's Notable Dissent Groups Fall Quiet". Ms. Williams used John Arceri as an authority source for Marco's "dissent groups" formally known as CAVE DWELLERS. Just wanted to let both of them know that the CAVE DWELLERS have not all left town for good. We reserve the right to voice our concerns whenever our local government tries to take advantage of us. So far the current Council and our new City Manager have done well. Keep your fingers crossed.

On Sizing up the new guy: Thompson’s contract awaits Marco council approval

Posted on April 18 at 8:06 a.m.

What kind of relationship does Ms. Williams and John Arceri have? Do some background on him and you will discover that he is not what he seems. He may have served as a Councilman but he ran unopposed and served without any contiuency. When given a second chance to run for a second term, he showed no courage. He declined because even he knew, he could not win against another candidate. Now, you seek his opinion on numerous stories. Why do you perceive him as the grand old sage of Marco Island? This fellow wasted millions of our tax dollars buying a water treatment plant that was falling apart. Sewer infrastructure that was failing and continues to leak raw sewage. He let the previous owners of the plant rape and pillage the company without making any demands to recoup lost resources established for the plant's refurbishment and upgrade. To make up for his lack of due diligence he developed and promoted the STRP, a multi-million dollar program that was so ill conceived it caused three years of political conflict on our island. I ask again, who cares what he thinks? Send his opinions to the rubish bin where they belong. He is a retired municipal mid-level executive whose greatest achievement is becoming a Marco Island Councilman. Do a story on this guy and maybe you will learn something about him.

What the hell is Waldack doing sneaking around a residential neighborhood in the middle of the night? If it was my neighborhood and I had seen a strange vehicle with a little man sitting in it at 5.00 o'clock in the morning, I probably would have called the Police. This guy needs something to do. Maybe the city should hire him to police the loud short-term rentals some neighborhoods have been complaining about.

On South plant move approved unanimously

OldMarcoMan: You are right, $2,000 is insignificant and waterways ordinances do exist in Florida. Problem is, this $2,000 belongs to the people of Marco Island and our leadership is throwing it away because they cannot win this fight. The ordinance our City is proposing is poorly written and will never meet the test. There is a real risk that the ultimate failure of this appeal will offer opponents the means to challenge all existing ordinances in other cities. That would not be good and Marco Island and it's arrogance would be blamed. Instead of being negative, why don't you do something positive and volunteer to help write an ordinance that will survive the test of challenge? An ordinance everyone living in boating communities throughout the U.S. can live with.

MarcoAvenger: What was it that the above three posters lost? It seems they still have the negative uncivil posts of five of your identities to contend with. By the way, who made you and whatever you call yourself today, the decider of who gets to stay and who must leave this community? You need to get a life and stop trying to be so many people. Exhibiting multiple personalities is a sign ofa fundamental mental derangement characterized by defective or lost contact with reality. Time to get some help.

I have no idea what this article has to do with the prior election. Please Leroy, explain it to us.
