You laid off 35 firefighters in Lehigh and X amt. of police officers. Did the Mayor and council take a 10% Pay Cut like they asked their employees to do?? If not why not? What do the current candidates think should be done to rectify this outrageous situation???

Ms. Persons...The City of Fort Myers Rules and Regulations states that you must reside in the City of Fort Myers at least 12 months before you can qualify to run for Mayor. From what the citizens understand is that you relocated from North Fort Myers in October 2008 to your new First Street address in the City of Fort Myers. If that is the case, can you prove that you actually resided in Fort Myers at your new location for one year prior to announcing your candidacy and swearing under oath?

Cape Coral, The FAC stated that ISO ratings are the driving force for insurance rates in reference to fire insurance. Cape Coral has an ISO rating of #3. The FAC said that a rating of 9 is the level where insurance rates go up. Using this premise, do you think Cape Coral is OVER-STAFFED AND OVER-EQUIPPED in the Fire/Safety department. If No, Why not? If Yes, what do you plan to do about it?
