Recker in His Own Words

Editor's Note: By the way Recker, as you denigrate the citizens you purportedly represent, consider that it is impossible to "blaspheme" those like you, since to blaspheme means "expressing disrespect for God or for something sacred" - unless you and yours think of yourselves as God or something sacred. Oh by the way Recker, nice touch on how you want to "eviscerate" (surgical removal of an organ or the contents of an organ from a patient, or the act of removing the bowels or viscera) Roger Hall, Butch Neylon, Joe Batte (a lifelong public servant) and Dr. Guidry (a veteran). Nice, very nice.

George's email to me below speaks for itself!

I know your boss has been hearing things from various persons on Marco Island. But I am now an announced candidate for City Council down here who supports the STRP (septic tank replacement program) here on Marco. I think this issue should be controversial---- if the date were 1920 instead of 2007! But it seems I could use some 'support' from the DEP....maybe a statement that waste is better off in a treatment plant than in our backyards!!

Is there anyone you would advise me to speak with? I have been in contact with a friend/supporter, Lisa Douglass who works in City Hall on Marco as the Public Info Officer.

And, just for anyone's edification, I have attached my background and position paper which includes my position on the 'sewer' issue and which was given to the media!

Lastly, we just did lose our City Manager, Bill Moss, who was wisely chosen by Naples as their permanent replacement. He was 'run off' by the anti sewer lunatics here on Marco

Thanks!

George:

On Wednesday I'm meeting with my 'political advisors' who have been trying to get something from the DEP which states/requires the sewer hook ups on Marco Island. As I mentioned, the only 'announced' candidates at this point are four militant 'save the septic tank' lunatics who would completely stop the STRP (septic tank replacement program) in progress. About 64% of the residences are now on sewers. The present schedule would have it all completed by about 2012.

Could you give me the name of a good contact source at DEP to assist my colleagues? Or, would you have any suggestions? If DEP came out with a mandate/order, etc., saying it must be done or such, it would remove this sewer issue from the politics and essentially eviscerate the four who are running for office on this issue alone.

I can't believe in this day and age 'intelligent' adults would oppose hooking up to sewers but I guess unless they saw sewage floating in their own backyards they would rather maintain the status quo, no matter what the environmental/larger picture might look like.

My supporters tell me (I am still unannounced) that as soon as I announce, the first questions will be about my position on sewers, and they say the militant core who are against sewers WOULD only look at that one position/issue. We may be losing a great City Manager (Bill Moss) as a result of the militants who blaspheme everyone who does not agree with them.

Thanks.
