Deerfield-News.com-Deerfield Beach, Fl-After yesterdays post on bagels, and The Original Brooklyn Water Bagels TM “it’s all about the water.” I was thinking for Deerfield Beach residents it is all about the water and exactly what is Deerfield Beach hiding from us.
Mayor, you have the absolute authority to permit anyone to visit the water treatment plant.Several citizens myself included have asked for that right DHS or a BSO Deputy or a US Marshall can accompany us if you so requested. Whatever it is you are hiding or think we will not find out about, we are going to get to the bottom of.
Again, folks, the pictures speak for themselves, it is not “a little rust in the trough” before the water gets treated, as Mayor would have you believe.
How about the EPA report Mayor you care to challenge that and dismiss it? How about the State of Florida Department of Health that clearly states the city of Deerfield Beach’s water treatment plant was not in compliance and with deficiencies 36 consecutive months. Facts Mayor all facts, and again there are the pictures!
It is a systemic wide problem that needs nearly $15 Million in repairs, it is your drinking water, your bathing water and the same the water your pets drink, too!
Look at the pictures they did not want to release and say they were sent in error.You can see the rust you can read the reports that were never published in any local newspapers or on TV.
Who are you going to believe your lying eyes or your lying Mayor?
You must think that if you come out and say we are creating “a panic” your neglect of our water treatment plant will go unnoticed. Mayor, what are you hiding?
You know my “Public Record Requests ” include everyone who has visited the water treatment plant and I have requested the records from the State of Florida, too.
Next week we will travel to Fort Lauderdale and see what we can find hidden in the public records you “have had scrubbed” claiming a statutory exemption.
Yes, we have contacted the Office of The Inspector General and have reported our concerns about the financial misappropriation to repair our water treatment plant.
Take a look at what the State of Florida Department of Health has prepared for us. Stay tuned same bat website, same bat time we will publish what they have provided that is pertinent, the rest the stuff they are hiding maybe we will seek a “Writ of Mandamus” for. Time to let a Judge decide what is exempt from the public to see. as opposed to you Mayor and legal counsel of yours or the State of Florida’s.
