AAA awarded that con- tract to Hope Connections. Senior Connections owns the building. Because it was pur- chased in part with federal Title III money, it must be used as a multi-purpose senior center for at least three more years to satisfy federal regulations. Senior Con- nections leases the ground the facility sits on from the county. If the deal with Good Will Industries pans out. Good Will would sustain some senior-relat- ed services; however, the county commissioners would have to agree to sublet the building, according to Ms. Nolan. Senior Connections is also checking with the Department of Elder Affairs legal counsel to ascertain what services would have to be maintained to satisfy the federal regulations or what monies should be paid to end the fund- ing obligation. In. addition to Good Will, Senior Connections could rent space at the Nobles Center to other non-profits as well. Senior Connections is turning over its rented space at the John Boy Auditorium in Clewiston to Hope and is in the process of sell- ing its Moore Haven facility at 101 First Street. Hope Connections will be renting space at the Doyle Conner Building.

Not only are the victims and the per- petrators often locked in legal issues, domestic violence per- meates their lives and their chil- dren's lives emotionally and psychologically. Alice Campbell is a Victim Services Advocate for the Hendry County Sheriff's Office. She is in charge of contacting ... i ... ovln.miesti,, violence, child abuse, homicide and sexu- al abuse to let them know what help is available to them. She deals with crisis intervention, emotional support and assis- tance in obtaining information, translation assistance, assis- tance in completing victim com- pensation forms and other means of financial assistance, community referrals, and sup- port during hearings, arraign- ments, or trial and other person- al advocacy as needed. She works closely with investigators and sometimes translates for victims, as well as sometimes goes to the courtroom with vic- tims. She said recently that there have been a lot of sexual battery victims. Every case is different so domestic violence can be anything from a misdemeanor to a felony depending on the severity Domestic violence always affects children whether the par ents think they are listening or not. She said, "It is disappoint- ing to see someone go back to a See Violence Page 2 Can board hear late petitions? By Patty Brant It could be that all the peti- tions to reduce property assess- ments that were filed after the Monday, Sept. 18, deadline will not be heard. Hendry County Clerk of Courts Barbara Butler told the commissioners at their Oct. 24 meeting that Property Apprais- er Kristina Kulpa is refusing to schedule hearings for late peti- tions. It is unclear how many of the 1,301 petitions were accepted late, although well over 1,000 were in the Clerk's Office on time.. The Clerk's staff continued to accept peti- tions for at least a week after the deadline. Ms. Butler said she was asked by a property appraiser employee to accept late petitions. She also said the property appraiser has never refused to allow late petitions to be heard in the six years she has been in office. Ms. Kulpa, however, does have the right of refusal, she said. Commissioner Janet Taylor brought up the question as to how late petitions might be handled. Commissioner Kevin McCarthy's question was, "What do we need to do to hear these petitions legally?" Commissioners believe it would be up to the special master whether to hear late petitions or not. Commission Chairman Darrell Harris said an attorney for the county, the Special Master Dan Stevens and the property appraiser will .* need to be consulted for a legal opinion on whether or not the Value Adjustment Board is able to hear these petitions. County Administrator Lester Baird is charged with finding an attorney to make that call, since newly-appointed Mark See County -Page 2 The pioneer Leadership class for Hendry and Glades counties.

To see that I've made a positive impact in a child's life is so heartwarming. It is important to teach your kids right from wrong, so when something bad happens to them they will tell you. If the cycle isn't broken with the children it will only continue. She said, a lot of people are afraid to get out of their bad situa- tion due to money worries, but that there is help out there. Shel- ters such as ACT (Abuse Counsel- ing Treatment) or REACT Rural Educational Abuse Counseling Treatment) are free and their counselors are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Relocation funds are also available to victims who are willing to prosecute. She said; 'If you are a victim report it because there is help out there." If you have recently been the victim of a crime, you can call the victim advocacy number at 674- 4060 ext. 215. Or, if someone is in need of help they can call the crisis line at 1-800-500-1119 and remain anonymous. Wayne Meddock is a licensed mental health therapist and CFO of the Hendry-Glades Mental Health Department. Often it falls to the folks at mental health to deal with both sides of the issue. Mr. Meddock said a therapist often deals with personalities of power and control. At the initial assessment, the therapist wants to find out: what do you want to do in this relationship? That will begin the groundwork for a healing process. Mr. Meddock said it's best to counsel both parties involved, if possible, although they are coun- seled separately. The perpetrators of domestic violence are often counseled in a group setting a 26-week class that deals with issues of power/control, how to express feelings, anger management, edu- cation on the law and developing a prevention plan. It's funny how, at the beginning of the class, clients often feel that nobody's responsible for their problems, Mr. Meddock said. In fact, the perpetrator.may feel like a victim themselves. By the end of the 26 weeks, their attitude softens and they see their own part in the problem. They also become more open to mental health services., Generally women are more in touch with their feelings, he said; they think, feel and behave differ- ent from men who often do not understand how women feel and process information. People deal with frustration in a lot of ways; they need to learn to handle it without striking out. Therapy is about giving them Leaders Continued From Page 1 in rural communities people tend to vote for the candidate as a per- son, not some image developed by a political party as a vote-grab- ber, making it the ideal place for an "American revival." It's time to get back to being real Americans, he said, that stand together, toler- ant of each other's opinions and early residents as the host agency for Senior Companions, a pro- gram that partners seniors with other seniors in both LaBelle and Immokalee. They assist with vari- ous chores, take clients shopping or to doctor's appointments or just spend time together. The pro- gram is through the Dr. Ella Piper Center in Fort Myers. Currently, there are six companions work- ing in Immokalee and two in LaBelle. Companions receive a stipend and gas allowance. Ms. Nolan also hopes to start a phone reassurance program with callers options: prayer, mediation, exer- cise. Part of the therapist's job is to help them find the way that works for them. Because local services are so limited, domestic violence therapy groups often encompass all types of domestic violence issues and even may include both males and females. This can help bring out different perspectives. According to Mr. Meddock, you cannot "pigeonhole people" when counseling them without decreas- ing effectiveness each individual situation is unique. Children are treated individual- ly because there are just not enough for a group. And children who witness domestic violence are a big con- cern. "They take pictures in their mind," Mr. Meddock said. Those pictures have an impact on them for the rest of their lives. Parents need to communicate with their child thatviolence is not the way to handle their problems. Statistics show that one in three adult women experience at least one physical assault by an intimate partner. One in ten calls made to police on domestic violence situa- tions are placed by a child in the home. Each year, an estimated 3.3 million children are exposed to violence by family members against their mothers or female caretakers. A woman is killed in Florida due to domestic violence every 36 hours. These are aston- ishing statistics, but Abuse Coun- seling & Treatment, Inc. is commit- ted to helping those who have been a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault. SAccording to Annette M. Popovich, Rural Coordinator for Abuse Counseling & Treatment, Inc., ACT, has a 24-hour crisis hot- line, three Emergency shelters, safety planning, information and referrals, support groups, chil- dren's programs, one-on-one counseling, community education and advoadcy, including support through the:,judicialsystem and accompaniment to court. If you or someone you know someone is in a domestic violence situation, you can contact ACT at 24-hour crisis hotline at 1-800-500-1119. All calls are kept confidential and services are free. Women can help themselves by calling the crisis hotline and/or coming up with a safety plan for themselves and their children. They can attend the support groups, call for counseling, talk ,with someone they trust. Legal options are filing for an injunction for protection, a no contact order, and even staying in shelter if they are in fear for themselves and/or their children. With domestic violence, the person who is being abused, has the choice in what they want to do. ACT is there to assist them with those choices. understanding of their needs. The inaugural Leadership class includes: Clifton Baldwin, Derek Beck, Sherri Denning, Jeni Dyess, Neftali Fernandez, Angie Hall, Estela Hernandez, LaVita Holmes, Thomas Missotti, Sean Moore, Mark Morton, Steven Nis- bit, Cathy Perry, Denise Roth, Wayne Simmons, Kevin Thomas, Danielle Toms, Sara Townsend, Glenda Wilson and Ron Zimmer- ly.

Correction Last week's story on the Community Revitalization Agency erro- neously stated that the Main Street Florida program requires a $100,000 commitment from the community. Actually, a town with a population of under 5,000 would require the community to contribute one year of funding, to include a part time program manager. We regret the error. checking daily on clients. Senior Connections lost its contract with AAA because it fell behind on documentation as the organization struggled to provide services through two devastating hurricane seasons. Hope Connec- tions, part of Hope of Southwest Florida which also provides hos- pice and other services, was awarded that contract by Area Agency on Aging (AAA). Hope Connections is now pro- viding congregate meals at its site at 60 SR 80, at the corner of Hwy. 80 and Calhoun Street, as well as delivering meals daily. Hope Con- nections has maintained a con- gregate meal facility in Buckhead Ridge since August 9 and offers a variety of services in Glades and Hendry counties, including: per- sonal care, homemaker services, household chores, transportation, medical equipment and supplies, counseling and emergency response systems.

Make sure your kids dress up safely From the Hendly County Sheriffs Office Check that the costumes are flame-retardant so the little ones aren't in danger near burning jack-o-lanterns and other fire haz- ards. Keep costumes short to pre- vent trips, falls and other bumps in the night. Try make-up instead of a mask. Masks can be hot and uncomfortable arid; more impor- tantly, they can obstruct a child's' vision-- a dangerous thing when kids are crossing streets and going up and down steps. Make sure kids wear light colors or put reflective tape on their costumes. Trick-or-treaters should always be in groups sothey aren't a tempting target for real-life gob- lins. Parents should accompany young children. Make sure older kids trick-or- treat with friends. Together,. map out.a sale route so parents know where they'll be. Tell them to stop only at familiar homes where the outside lights are oh. Try to get your kids to trick- or-treat while it's still light out. If it's dark, make sure someone has a flashlight and pick well-lighted streets. Make sure kids know not to enter strange houses or strangers' cars. Kids need to know not to eat their treats until they get home. One way to keep trick-or-trealers from digging in while they're still out is to feed them a meal or a snack beforehand. Check out all treats at home in a well-lighted place. A better way to check treats is at one of the local hospitals - they will x-ray the goodies for free. What to eat? Only unopened candies and other treats that are in original wrappers. Don't forget to inspect fruit and homemade goodies for anything ,suspicious. By all means, remind kids not to eat everything at once or they'll be feeling pretty ghoulish for a while' Halloween can be a lot of fun for parents and kids alike if everybody remembers the tricks and the treats of playing it safe.

Chairman Joe Smyth President Ed Dulin Vice President of Florida Operations Tom Byrd Executive Editor Katrina Elsken Can 'Endocrats' satisfy your needs? People that know me won't be surprised with what I have to say in this article, and at the risk of confirming their worst fears, I'm proposing a third political party be formed. The idea has been brewing for some time, and I guess the trigger point was the debacle created in the 16th Congressional District with the resignation of former Congressman Mark Foley. With all the furor and frustra- tion running rampant in the Dis- trict, State and nationally I per- ceive the timing is right for a third political party. I've studied long and hard and decided that in view of the current tf yOUr Wortl Get Involved U circumstances precipitating the need, that the new Party should be called the "Endocrats." Since there are growing con- cerns that the two existing parties have assimilated without due process or voter support, and the current climate of satisfying only primal needs, that a third party, founded on satisfying individual voter primal needs is long over- due. As asinine as it may sound, the recent exposure of Congressman Foley's foibles would seem to qualify for an in-depth, bottoms up review of all aspects of the political process available to all American voters. A preliminary review of. accredited medical practioners, internists, proctologists, eye, ear and nose specialists that Endocrats stand the best chance of getting to the bottom of the people's needs. They believe that, given the opportunity, Endocrats, can and will till all available voids in a ful- filling, mutual satisfaction of mutual needs. Let's make no bones about it, who better than an Endocrat can mount a position where there will be no doubt as to where they stand, bone or no bone. There has been much discus- sion as to what could appropriate- ly serve as the Endocrat logo, with a former president's "wagging fin- ger" and the "mystery digit" in top contention. From a practical standpoint, there is much to do. So if you feel an Endocratic urge is supportive of your needs, there is .always room at the top. Respectfully, T. W.

Kulpa, Hendry County Property Appraiser, announces that property owners who have established a new resi-: dence in Hendry County, or have changed ownership in any man- ner must make a new application and qualify for the $25,000 home- stead exemption. The application is due by March 1, 2007. You may pre-file now for the 2007 tax year. Should you have any questions, or need additional information, visit the website at www.hendryprop.org or please feel free to call the LaBelle office at 675-5270 or the Clewiston office at 983-3178. The hours for both offices are 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday thru Friday. Save Our Homes : Kristina A. Kulpa, Hendry County Property Appraiser explains how Save Our Homes works.for you: What does the 3 percent cap mean to Hendry County resi- dents? The Save Our Home cap limits the increase in the annual assess- ment of homestead properties in Florida to 3 percent or to the Con- sumer Price Index, whichever is less. Does the 3 percent cap limit property taxes?; ; No, it is a cap on the assess- ment of a parcel, not on the taxes paid. A property's assessment could stay the same or change but property taxes could go up any given year because of millage increases levied by your local tax- ing authorities. Who qualifies? You must own a residential property that already qualifies for the $25,000.00 Homestead Exemption. Does the 3 percent cap change the way property values are esti- mated by the PropertyAppraiser? No, the. Property Appraiser's responsibility is to determine the property's market value for a fair, and equitable tax roll. What happens to the cap when I sell my home and buy a new house' n When a homestead property sells, the cap is removed and the value is increased to market value Community Calendar Friday, October 27 American Legion Fish Fry:. 5-7 p.m. Legion Post 130, Highway 80 AA.Step 11 Meditation Meeting 7 p.m. Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd, Collingswood & Eucalyptus, Port LaBelle, open meeting Bingo!

Ron Hendershot said, "Of all the Pres- idents I would have to say Ronald. Reagan because he seemed down to earth. He said this is what we're going to do and he did it. He didn't let any body push him around and he ha good moral standards." Debbie Nisbet said, "I liked Ronald Reagan because he was for the peo- ple. I remember Reaganomics. Our country was pretty peaceful during his time. He turned the economy around and I think he made us all proud to be Americans." Nora Fagin said, "I liked Bill Clint; He was the best looking' Presid around. He's a good man. He mad mistake but we all make mistakes. Clinton is my favorite President ot time because he's all around go He has a good heart. He was ab, the people and not about himself."

Cowboys defeat Raiders 23-20 By Coach Ron Dunbar The 2006 LaBelle Cowboys did something very few people would have expected this year- claim the District 13 3A football title over the Riverdale Raiders! The Cowboys scored first on a 6-yard run by senior fullback Andrew Tovar on the opening drive and then added a 31-yard field goal by junior Rey Hernan- dez to start the second quarter and take a confident 10-0 lead. It looked like the Cowboys were in control but the Raiders scored on a short run after a Cow- boy fumble and a tipped pass was intercepted and returned for another Raider score and a sud-. den 13-10 lead. The Raiders then added another score before the half and took a commanding 20- 10 halftime lead into the locker room. In the second half the Cowboy defense took things into their own hands and shut down the explo- sive Raider offense numerous times giving the Cowboys the opportunity to stage a comeback. And comeback they did as jun- ior running back Gabriel Puente scored from 20 yards out to cut the margin to 20-16 after the missed extra point. Then the Cowboy defense again came through and forced another Raider punt with just over 3 minutes to play. Then the Cowboy offensive line took over led by seniors Michael Awbrey and Matt Rentz. They opened up huge holes for the running of Tovar. and' the speedy Puente as the Cowboys marched the ball down to the 5 yard line with just over a minute to play. Puente then muscled his way into the end zone and gave the visitors a 23-20 lead after the Hernandez extra point. The LaBelle defense needed one more stand to close out the victory as they stopped a long fourth down pass from the Raiders with 54 seconds remain- ing. The Cowboy's sideline and crowd of followers could be heard for miles w\\ith their excite- ment. Offensi\ely, Puente had the best game of his career .as he rushed for 220 yards on 29 carries and had numerous key runs in the second half for the Cowboys. Defensively, the LaBelle squad was led by juniors Julian Keen, Ben Daley and Caleb Jordan as they recorded 8 tackles a piece. Another important factor in the game had to be the special teams' play of kicker Rev Hernan- dez. Besides the early field goal that helped the Cowboys, Her- nandez forced the Raiders to start from their own 20-yard line three times on thundering kickoffs into the end zone. "Besides the few mental mis- takes we made in the second quarter, I was very pleased with the team effort of this club. A lot of people counted these guys out before the season started and they took that personally. I am very happy for these boys and my coaching staff to get an opportu- nity.to participate in the state play- offs;" said a very proud Coach Dunbar. The Cowboys will be at home next Friday for Homecoming against the Estero Wildcats at 7:30 p.m. JV Cowboys finish season 8-0 Marines (26:35), Shayla Wilson (27:47), and Nancy Vasquez (27:52). The next race for both the Girls and Boys team will be the District Championships at Gold- en Gate High School in Naples on Friday morning October 27. Boys race Once again, Senior Stafford King won the boys race, over- coming an unusually hilly course and competition from 6 other schools with a time of 17:28. Unfortunately that was not good enough as the boys team fin- ished second to Hardee Senior High School, 32 to 44. Jacob Stallings and freshman sensation Cesar Mateo did lend some sup- port running times of 19:16 and 19:45. Drew Dyess and Tim Fromm finished the scoring for LaBelle with times of 20:03 and 20:04. Girls race Despite missing top runner Brooke Norris, the Girls Cross Country team came away the winner of a 7-team race. The times were a bit slower than usual reflecting the extremely hilly course. Irene Garza led the way finishing 3rd over-all with a time of 24:28. Missy Olivarez (25:41) led a pack of LaBelle girls to cross the finish line a head of the competition.

Never has LMS had a school team, and to start the program with pride, character, and suc- cess was attributed to the play- ers, coaches and supporters of the program. Hendry Country Recycling was instrumental in providing the uniforms and hel- mets for the players, The team outscored their opponents 156-94 by presenting a completely balanced team. Coach White was extremely pleased with the performance of the players and felt it was a posi- tive experience for all students. Coach White emphasized that "undefeated seasons don't come along very often" and they were to enjoy the moment, but explained that integrity and "how we handle success" is part of the player development.

Disaster recalled for new generation By Nena Bolan Glades County Democrat MOORE HAVEN-Eighty years have passed since the Hurricane of 1926 flooded the town of Moore Haven. It washed water out of the Okeechobee as if the lake was a giant, shallow bowl. Nettie Howard was 11 years old at the time. Her father, Berry Stew- art, farmed tomatoes, cucumbers and beans at their home site about six miles south of town off U.S. 27. She reminds younger people that the only : way her family could tell a storm was coming was by visual observa- tion of the Nettle weather. Howard Ms. Howard said, "Back then we did not have the information like we have nowadays. It had been windy aid rainy and cloudy for two or three days. Well the next thing we knew here was the hurricane full force." There were five people at Ms. Howard's home, including Stanley Stern, a teenager from Moore Haven who helped with the farm labor. The one-room wooden house was knocked off its blocks and the lean-lo kitchen was sepa- rated from the frame. The lake water did not reach her family's farm. However, about one foot of rain water was around the house, which had been built on a mound. Stanley Stern and her father left the next morning to check on Stern's family in town. They drove about two miles, and then had to wade in waist deep afterr When the water got deeper they had to swim. Local townspeople rescued survivors by boat, and both men were picked up and taken to Moore Haven. Nettie Howard stayed at the farm, but her father relayed events to her. When they reached the Stern home it was gone. The Stern family had nine children and six of Stanley's siblings drowned as flood waters broke up their home. The waters had risen up to the rooftops. "A lot of pedole wenit'ut on the roofs," she said, "and then the waves, wind and all blew them off into the water. That was such a tragedy for that boy. I guess he was about 14." Young Stanley was traumatized and Berry Stewart brought him back to the farm. Many wild animals and live- stock drowned orwhere displaced. Ms. Howard said she remembered her.father having to kill five rat- tlesnakes soon after the storm. Hickman Howard, Nettie's future husband, was a commercial fisherman out on the water with his cousin when it blew across the big lake. Later, he told her the waves were 15 to 20 feet high. The rudder became damaged and the fishing boat tossed around until it later settled against a canal bank. He had to wait for a full day before another boat picked him up. Ms. Howard is 92 now, and resides in Sebring. Looking back, she recalled that her father was completely bewildered by life even before the storm hit. Her mother, Ellen Worth Stewart, had died dur- ing childbirth three years earlier. The storm followed and his veg- etable crops were destroyed The loss of his wife, his farm and his eyewitness account of the dead stayed with him for a long, long time.

George (Axl Jones) is pictured giving Marvin (Michael Gatch) a good bash in the head with a brownie pan. Laugh along with 'If the Shoe Fits' By Patty Brant Opening night. Firehouse Cul- tural Center. Firehouse Players cen- ter stage freely dispensing chuck- les. If the Shoe Fits, by Matt Thompson, Matt Chiorioni and Dana Vermette, is a comedy about a cock-eyed love triangle with an extra side and, oh yes, a nice little twist at the end. With just four actors in this pro- duction, the action moves quickly, taking the audience along for the hilarious ride. Michael Gatch plays Marvin (Pooky), the genial but clueless husband. Brittany Marie is Delores (Snookums), his lovely but conniving wife, and Axl Jones is George, a shoe salesman and Delores' quirky, not-too-sharp lover. Mercedes Mitchell plays the hot blooded Spanish maid, Esper- anza. Laugh as you follow Delores and George's inept attempts to do away with poor Marvin so they can run off to a tropical isle together. And then there's, Esperanza, the maid she's definitely got more on her mind than dusting. If the Shoe Fits, directed by Mike Shough, continues with perform- ances Oct. 27 and 28 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 29 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance; $12 at the door. Visa and Master Card are accepted. Reservations can be made by call- ing the theater at 863/675-3066. The Firehouse Cultural Center is located at 241 N. Bridge Street. Got the itch to act?

I am the little girl that wrote the thank you note to thank all the people who helped at my Grand- parents BBQ. They did it to help my Mom & Dad pay for my head fixer up bills. Boy, Girl, are there a lot of them! Some people asked how a nice girl like me got into this fix. I don't really know but at first I started to run in to things and fall off my stool at nursery school. My Mom asked Dad if I got in to his bottle of funny brown water. I don't know what water has to do with how I feel or act. Mom took me to a Doctor that only fixes heads, but he said he did- n't see anything to fix. How could he see in my head? The Doctor said I needed a cat scan. Now this is foolish, I already have my two dogs, Scooby and Otto, and they didn't fix me. We went to where the cat lives and it scanned me. He lives in this really big thing where the cat runs around in a big circle and looks in my head and tells everyone what he sees. Can you believe that? We took the cat's story back to a head fixer upper Doctor. This doc- tor is in the Children's hospital in Tampa. He said I had two big balls in my head and he would have to go get them. They put me-to sleep even if I wasn't tired; then cut some hair off my head, then made a hole in my head so he could see what the cat saw. There was one thing called a cyst and one called a tumor. There are two kinds of tumors, one you can peel like Mom peels an onion, the other, my kind, is a sticky kind and it sticks to every- thing. Part of the bad thing was hurting my seeing from inside my head, the other was hurting my "ta tu a tory" glad (come on, I'm only three, what can you expect!) The Doctor told my folks he got what he could but couldn't get all the stuff that grew in my brain. He told them that they would have to wait 'til I was at least eleven before they could get the rest with radia- tion or it would really mess up things in my body I need to grow up. It's bedtime and Mom is on me to get to bed, so pray for me and my folks. I will see if I can finish my story later.

Robert Crawford was presented with his retirement plaque for 34 years of service by Ms. Deb- bie Hunt, the District One Direc- tor of Operations from Bartow, the district headquarters. He received many parting gifts including a Sony handy cam video camera. He also received everything he needed to start a garden including gloves, garden tools, seeds, fer- tilizer and a hat. He has a great garden every year and enjoys it. He officially retires October 30, but is already reaping the benefits of retirement due to having so many hours of sick and annual leave saved up. He has saved up 2,000 hours which is equivalent to almost one year, only taking time off in 1989 when he had a heart attack and a few days here and there. As the Supervisor of Mainte- nance he was in charge of tak- ing care of the state roads and/or easements. The size of his crew fluctuated, but on an average it was 15 people. He was in charge of. the maintenance Submitted to the Caloosa Belle/Jackie Crawford Part of the front office personnel, from left: Kay Hall, Nicole Seavy, Gloria Seay and Betsy Wineinger. Mr. Crawford was given everything he needed to start a garden including gloves, garden tools, seeds, fertilizer and a hat. crews for the DOT in Hendry and Glades counties. His crew consisted of three heavy equip- ment operator crews, two sen- ior heavy equipment operator crews, three specialty crews. (sign crew, herbicide crew, and carpenter crew). He also over- saw four inmate crews with four correctional *officers from Hendry Correctional Institution. They did things such as replace road signs, fill in holes in the road, cut the bushes, clean the ditches and take care of the cul- verts. Robert is the father of 33 year-old daughter Lisa, 18 year- old Brandon, 16 year-old daugh- ter Patricia and 24 year-old slep- son Robert Sarazan. Robert plans to take full advantage of his retirement to travel, relax, maybe remodel the inside of his home and maybe even buy a new lawn mower. SSave money on your favorite grocery items.

By Ideybis Gonzlez Clewiston News CLEWISTON The Hendry County Board of Commission- iers considered a measure at its ;Oct. 10 meeting to restrict the use ofATVs on public roads and highways, limiting their use to private property. Commissioners seemed to be concerned with a recent statute adopted by Florida which does give permission to ATV users to drive on some roadways, with restrictions. The Legislature enacted Florida Stat- ue 316.2123 this year that allows motorized dirt bikes and all-terrain vehicles to be operat- ed during the daytime by licensed drivers on unpaved roadways where the posted speed limit is less than 35 miles per hour. According to the county commissioners, though, per- mitting the use of ATVs on its unpaved roads would be unsafe, and could lead to acci- dents or rollovers that can cause serious injuries or even death. In addition the board also discussed the serious risks asso- ciated with allowing minors and children to operate an adult sized ATV on a public road. ATVs are currently defined in the statute as any motorized off- highway vehicles 50 inches or less in width, weighing 900 pounds or less, designed to trav- el on three or more low pres- sure tires, having a seat designed to be straddled by the -operator with no passenger. That definition also extends to any two-rider ATVs. In accordance with the law, Hendry County may opt out of conforming to the statute and implementing its own ordi- nance to determine the use of MOBILE HOMES Quality Homes at Discounted Prices!

The county is looking at prohibiting all use of ATVS on county paved or unpaved roads or streets. That does not, of course, affect residents who may use the ATVs on private property. Before the final vote on the ordinance, the county will have to schedule a public meeting on the issue to give the community an opportunity to comments. Need a Roof before the Rain gets here?
