Turns out thatcounty resi-dents who re-

modeled or madeadditions to theirhomes to accommodateelderly parents orgrandparents prior tothe Jan. 1, 2014, effec-tive date of the newgranny flat tax ordi-nance are nonethelesseligible for the exemp-tion.

So reports Lloydresident David Hall,who was at the Jeffer-son County Commis-sion meeting on Nov. 19when the board adoptedthe Granny Flat TaxOrdinance. At the time,Hall asked if the ex-emption would apply to

individuals like himwho had remodeled oradded to their houses inthe past in order to ac-commodate elderly rel-atives.

Hall was told bylegal counsel that theordinance did not applyto old constructions,but only to new onesgoing forward. Com-missioner BetsyBarfield, however,promised to look fur-ther into the matter.

Hall said thatBarfield called him lastFriday and reportedthat Property Ap-praiser Angela Grayhad found a rule inFlorida Statute that al-lows the exemption tobe applied to construc-tions and reconstruc-tions that occurred in

earlier years. Hall mentioned a

Florida Department ofRevenue (FDOR) as-sessment reductionform available inGray’s office that al-lows residents to applyfor the exemption. Hesaid the deadline for ap-plying for the exemp-tion for next year wasMarch 1.

On Wednesday, Feb.19, Gray confirmed andexpounded on Hall’s re-marks, saying that thegranny exemption ap-plied to any construc-tion or reconstructionthat was substantiallycompleted as far backas Jan. 7, 2003. Propertyowners couldn’t getcompensated for lossesin years prior to the ef-fective date of the ordi-nance, but they coulddefinitely apply for theexemption going for-ward, Gray said.

She explained thathomeowners who buildadditions to existinghomes or perform ex-tensive renovations toprovide living quartersfor a parent or grand-parent could be entitledto a special exemptionequal to the amount ofthe new construction orup to 20% of the home-stead value.Please SeeRELIEF Page 3

Economic De-ve lopmentD i r e c t o r

Julie Conley raved thisweek about the suc-cess of the recent siteselection consultants’program at the HoneyLake Plantation Re-sort and Spa.

Speaking to theEconomic Develop-ment Council Boardon Monday morning,Feb. 17, Conley saidthe $1,000 the grouphad spent for the eventwas well worth it. She

said nine outside con-sultants and severalstate officials had at-tended the three-dayaffair.

“It exceeded my ex-pectations,” Conleysaid. “The whole pointwas to let the site con-sultants known thatwe’re on the map, andit did that.”

She said the factthat north Florida hadbeen able to host theevent was a triumph initself, given that theseprograms typicallywere held in placessuch as Chicago, Hous-ton and Las Vegas.

Conley said thesite consultants con-veyed that the mostimportant considera-tion for communitiesto attract businesseswas to have a ready in-ventory of availablesites, complete with in-frastructure and theappropriate zoninglaws in place.

The second mostimportant considera-tion, per the consult-ants, was a readyworkforce, she said.

Site selectors areprofessional consult-ants who provide loca-tion information and

strategy planning tocorporations and busi-nesses looking to relo-cate or establish apresence somewherenew.

Among others oftheir responsibilities,site selectors assistcorporate and indus-try leaders with theirlocation decisions andfacilitate the interac-tion between corpo-rate end-users andeconomic developmentorganizations.

The event at theHoney Lake Planta-tion, held Feb. 9-11,was intended to soft

sell the 15 counties inthe North Florida Eco-nomic DevelopmentPartnership (NFEDP),whose mission is topromote economic de-velopment in the re-gion.

Conley said thepurpose of the confer-ence was to establishrelationships with thesite consultants, sothat the latter wouldhave this area on theirminds when theytalked with theirclients.

The conference,she said, had accom-plished that much.

On August14, 1945, ar a d i o

broadcast by Presi-dent Truman told thepeople of the UnitedStates that the blood-iest war in historyhad ended. Before thesurrender had beensigned aboard theUSS Missouri inTokyo Bay on Sept. 2,1945, plans to cut the16 million Americanmen and women serv-ing our country werebeing carried out.The Second WorldWar claimed over 50million lives; includ-ing the 400,000 Amer-ican dead andanother 700,000wounded. All of thepeople thought it wasa time of greatnessfor the United States.

Europe, Africaand Asia, had beenbombed and burned,their cities and fieldswere laid to destruc-tion. Ours had not,our Industries werestill in business. Ourgovernment was in-tact, and peace andprosperity werethought possible. Wespoke words like vic-tory, and exceptional,these words wereused to describe ourcountry and, our peo-ple.

There were con-cerns about the USSRhowever it was as-sumed that America'spolitical leadershipand our economicand military prowesswould become theworld leader in peace.

Ladies and Gen-tlemen, none of thatexists today.

NATO was cre-ated to defeat Hitler,when that job wasdone; NATO was toprotect us all againstthe threat of Sovietexpansion. All of thatis now in ruins NATOis incapable of bring-ing a jerk like Gad-hafi or Assad to heel.The aircraft, theships and the mili-tary tanks and otherhardware needed toprotect us, and our al-lies are thought to betoo expensive tobuild. New threats,like Iran, Syria, mostof Africa, NorthKorea, and several

countries closer tohome in South Amer-ica are ignored.

Meanwhile, ourpenciled necked,sissy, limp wrested,pond scum, so calledleaders in Washing-ton and Europe, con-tinue to loot ournational treasuries inorder to fund unaf-fordable social pro-grams. Most nations,ours included, arenow bankrupt bydept. What in God’sgreen earth hap-pened to all those ex-pectations for abetter future?

The answer isleadership. No lead-ers? No future. Thereis some good news, inthis country; we canstill use ballots in-stead of bullets to fireour leaders. Electionsin the US can changeeverything. Look atGreece, France, GreatBritton, Spain andItaly. Is this what wewant our country tomirror? Picture this,Auto’s, Homes, andBusinesses, all burn-ing because moniesran out in the coffersof these countries.Could this happen inour country? We nowhave agencies spyingon our every move,letters are sent to adear friend of mineasking the most inti-mate of questions.When that letter isnot fulfilled they ha-rass her with e-mailsand phone calls scar-ing that little lady,why? Because, shehas written letters,demeaning this ad-ministration.

Must our Presi-dent run around theworld apologizing forwho we are and whatwe do? Do we wantour president andCongress to "balancethe books" by guttingour military? I will bethe first to admit thatwe are top heavy insome aspects of ourMilitary, we now havemore Admirals thenships, the Army andAir Force have thesame problems andnow that Obama hasfired the best of the

best leaders, “We in aheap of trouble”Also, will we con-tinue to be subjectedto the whims of for-eign dictators for ourenergy needs? Or,use our own energy?Should we smotherfree enterprise withsilly regulations de-stroying businessesthen give advantageto our global competi-tors such as 2 billiondollars for Brazil todrill for oil off oftheir coast?

Should we con-tinue a tax systemthat punishes thehard working Ameri-cans success in orderto "redistribute" thewealth earned by thehard working?

Because this Pres-ident and this Con-gress are unable orperhaps unwilling totake on these prob-lems, our armedforces face huge cuts,while our youngAmericans are still inharm's way. Socialprograms, Medicareand Medicaid, arebroke and full of cor-ruption. 92 MillionAmericans are nowunemployed 52 mil-lion Americans aswell as many illegal’sby the way, are nowon food stamps orwhatever we call ittoday. The 6.3% un-employed is a bogusnumber, should youget so disgusted innot finding a job andquit looking for saidjob, you are no longercounted in the unem-ployment camp. Mymath teacher is flip-ping in her gravewith this scam.

To solve all theseproblems, we needreal leadership. Realleaders never prom-ise more than theycan deliver, and then,expect others to fol-low. November is buta mere nine monthsaway, eligible to voteyet?

Would a realleader please standup?

We the People ofthis once Great Na-tion need You.

Is America Still Great?


My fathersits be-hind his

desk at work. Tallahas-see Paint and Body isdusty but not unpleas-ant — in the spring-time, he keeps all thebay doors open to letthe air in.

A customer drivesup with a poorly donepaint job and a hur-ried, harried attitude.He wants his car re-painted. He just got itpainted a few weeksago at a different bodyshop, it “looks likecrap,” and he wants anew paint job.

“I need it fast,good, and cheap,” theman says, fiddlingwith his phone.

Dad’s chin liftsfractionally and —amused — he smiles sobig his face crinklesinto well-earned

crows’ feet. The grinsets a merry twinklebehind his eyes. Po-litely, he responds,“pick two.”

This isn’t a recentevent, but one of myfavorite memories ofmy father. He’s using aphrase he surelylearned from mygranddaddy, whopassed down his plain-speaking Southerncharm to my fatherlong before he passeddown the paint andbody shop.

“Everybody wantsa job done fast, good,and cheap,” Daddycounsels. “They can’thave it that way. Tellthem to pick two. Ifthey want it fast andgood, it can’t be cheap.If they want it goodand cheap, it won’t befast. If they want itfast and cheap, it won’tbe good.”

The customer’sgaze lifts from his

phone to my father’sthin face. Dad is half ahead taller than himand firm in his opin-ion, but he is politeand his expression iswarm. “Let me guess,son,” he says to theman, casually fitting ablower onto the air-line. “The last guysgave you a job cheapand they got it donefast, right?”

Fidgeting with thecuffs of his button-down shirt, the manshifts his weight un-comfortably. “Well,yeah.”

“Unfortunately, itwasn’t any good.” Dadpulls the trigger on theblower and aims it atthe front bumper. Theneven from a distance,the air blows chips ofpaint off. The paint be-neath is the car’s lastcoat of paint—dustand lovebugs included.Not only did the othershop not sand or primethe car, they didn’teven wash it.

Astounded, thecustomer looks at him,“How much?”

Mom Pays $567 To Remove Indecent T-Shirt Display In Orem, Utah, a

woman who was shoppingwith her teenage son at theUniversity Mall in Oremand shelled out $567 to buyT-shirts in a display sheconsidered to be indecent.Judy Cox said she saw the“Visual” line shirts in aPacSun store, featuringscreen-printed pictures ofscantily clad models. “Ihad a conversation withthe store manager,” Coxsaid. “She said she did re-fuse to put the accompany-ing banner up with thedisplay because it wasmuch worse, but that shecouldn’t take down the T-shirts without talking toher corporate office.” Coxpurchased all the shirts inthe line as well as the ac-companying displayposters. She said shewants to destroy the shirtsbut instead will “let theircorporate office figure outwhat to do with themwhen I return them on day59 of a 60-day return pol-icy.” Mall manager, RobKallas, said the displayhad received other com-plaints and the city attor-ney was informed and willdetermine if the displayviolates city codes.

Afterclearing the homeowner’sdriveway, the man went tothe woman’s door andasked for cash. The womantold the man to go awayand shut the door, but theman continued knockingand the woman came back,but this time with a gun.The shoveler talked to aneighbor as he was leavingand told them, “Thewoman pulled a .38 or a re-volver and told him to getthe (heck) out” the neigh-bor said. Capt. ThomasMeehan said, “she fearedhe was going to break in soshe opened the door againwith the firearm at herside. She never pointed it,but she said ‘get off myproperty, I’m going to callthe police,’ He decided toleave.”

and threatened a housebefore authorities wereable to get it under con-trol.It took the dispatch

and response of LloydVolunteers, JeffersonCounty Fire Rescue,and the Division ofForestry to bring the

blaze to heel.The Division of

Forestry had to bring ina backhoe to make a firebreak to contain thefire. Meanwhile four en-gines were on standby,protecting houses in thearea along Bassa Road.Emergency re-

sponse personnelworked for two longhours to suppress theefire. Thankfully, no onewas hurt in the fire andproperty losses wereminimal—mitigated, ofcourse, by emergencyresponse personnel’squick action.

August 15, 2013, Sgt.Bill Reams of the JCSOCorrections Division,contacted InvestigatorDon Barfield and re-ported that he had re-ceived a tip that inmateDavid M. Gavin was at-tempting to have drugssent to him at the jail.On August 20, 2013,

in a post Miranda inter-view, Gavin said hetalked his girlfriend,Kaitlin Marie Pergola,29, of Trinity, FL, intosending him Buprenor-phine, CV, also knownas Suboxone, a con-trolled substance. JCSOreported that the sub-stance is a heroin-like

opiate and that Pergolagot the drug from herdoctor.She reportedly sent

the drug to Gavin inthree separate letters,which where inter-cepted at the CountyJail before Gavin everreceived them.Pergola was ar-

rested February 17 onan outstanding Jeffer-son County warrantand charged with threecounts of introductionof contraband into acounty detention facil-ity. A total bond of$15,000 was set and sheremained at the CountyJail February 20.

Arnold grabbed her bythe throat and beganchoking her. She saidshe ran out the doorand Arnold threw aglass bowl at her, cut-ting her hand. At thatpoint, Arnold report-edly ran in and grabbedher baby and got into agreen GMC pickuptruck.In his haste to

To be eligible, prop-erty owners must havea homestead exemp-tion on the propertywhere the parent orgrandparent quartersare constructed, Graysaid. Moreover, theconstruction or recon-struction must be prop-erly permitted andcomply with all localland development reg-ulations, she said.Copies of all permits,certificate of occu-pancy and plans mustbe submitted to theProperty AppraisersOffice.The construction

or reconstruction mustalso be completed be-fore Jan. 1 of the yearin which the reductionis requested. What’smore, the applicationmust be filed with theProperty Appraisersoffice annually on, orbefore, March 1 of eachyear, she said.

Others of the appli-cable rules: the occu-pants of the added orremodeled quartersmust be a parent orgrandparent; the occu-pants must be at least62 years of age by Jan.1of the year in whichthe reduction is re-quested; and the occu-pants mustpermanently reside onthe property on or be-fore Jan. 1 of the yearin which application ismade.The occupants also

cannot receive anybenefits requiring adeclaration of perma-nent residency on anyother property in anyother county or state.The measure is

more formally calledthe Elderly LivingQuarters TemporaryAssessment AbeyanceOrdinance, but it’s bet-ter known as theGranny Flat Tax Ordi-

nance. The exemption

ceases as soon as theparents or grandpar-ents die.Per Gray, about 40

percent of Florida’s 67counties currentlyoffer the granny flattax. Based on statisticsfrom counties of simi-lar assessed valuationsas Jefferson County,Gray estimates that theimpact of the exemp-tion to the county willbe between $1,800 and$11,000 annually in losttax revenues, if 10 peo-ple should qualify forthe exemption. The ordinance ap-

plies to all taxing juris-dictions withinJefferson County, in-cluding the City ofMonticello, the Jeffer-son County School Dis-trict and the Suwanneeand Northwest Floridawater managementdistricts.

music teacher JeremyGeorge approached theJefferson CountySchool Board and in-

formed board membersthat the school lackedinstruments for all thestudents in the pro-gram. As he told it, theprogram had 136 en-rolled students and 120wind instruments, only50 of which were func-tional. The remainder,he said, needed repairsor to be replaced. George estimated it

would cost about $7,000to outfit the band prop-erly with new or re-

paired instruments.Which situationprompted the founda-tion to take up thecause and pledge tohelp secure the neededinstruments either bypurchases or donations. It’s the foundation’s

stated mission to pro-vide the school districtwith support for thoseprograms, activitiesand purchases that falloutside the scope of thedistrict’s budget.

She began paintingmurals when she of-fered to do a mural forher church, FirstUnited Methodist ofMonticello. “I offered todo a painting at first,but then I realized thatit would be hung atadult height and thechildren would neverget to see it.”

Her solution was topaint right on the walland she has beenhooked ever since. Shehas painted murals atschools, in children’srooms and at nurseries.

Sealey loves seeingthe look on children’sfaces when they see the

finished product: “Onetime, I painted a dogunder a water fountain.He was wet and shakingwater all over. One littleboy kept going over tothe dog painting andkept trying to dry thedog with a paper towel.It was very cute.”

Another favoriteproject was an under-

sea scene for herfriends’ baby room.“They do a lot of deep-sea fishing,” Sealey ex-plained.

Her current projectis for Two Sisters NewBeginnings, LLC, abeautiful outdoor sceneon the East-facing win-dow of the shop.

TransformingLife Churchin Lloyd will

hold a God Encounterweekend starting Fri-day, February 28.

TLC Pastors Timand Beverly Buchholtzare very excited. “Whatis a God Encounter, youmight ask? A God En-counter is a time ofministry that releasesGod’s presence in a sin-cere yet non-threaten-ing way, showing God’slove and power.”

The guest speaker,David Hanks is from aMonticello family—theson of Carl and the lateMary Hanks of Monti-cello. He has spent hismost recent years in awhirlwind of ministryand God’s service.Though he was raised

in a parsonage, hehasn’t always had thestrong faith that he doesnow.

According to pas-tors Buchholtz, “It was-n’t until after attendingFSU on an athleticscholarship that[Hanks] started to pur-sue God on a personallevel and realized thatthere was a call to min-istry in his life.”

Hanks has recentlyreturned from a min-istry trip to the Hawai-ian Islands, anexperience he will besharing about duringGod Encounter. PastorsBuchholtz offer a teaserthat Hanks, “was privi-leged to see many peo-ple experience thepower of God mani-fested through physicalhealing and personalrevival of the heart.”

But how does a man

go from a youth with avague concept of God toa pastor with a strongpersonal relationshipwith his Creator? Findout as Hanks shares histestimony during GodEncounter weekend,February 20-March 1 atTransforming LifeChurch in Lloyd.

For more informa-tion call (850) 997-TLC7or visit the church web-site at www.Trans-formingLifeChurch.com.

Pastors Buchholtzclose with this message:“Transforming LifeChurch believes Jesusto be the same—yester-day, today, and foreverand He desires to ex-press His resurrectionlife and power througha believing people. Is itpossible to encounterthe living God in ourday? Come and see!”
