THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS , Vol. 8 Thursday June 9, 2005 rl .-YL I 70U-7/ Macclenny, Florida 500 ;day hearing protest they are too high, suggest re-visit Impact fees are heading back for workshop BY NANCY SZANTO ,: .- News Editor Only a couple of the 16 speakers .:: at the June 7 Baker County Com- mission meeting had anything posi- tive to say about impact fees. And even those few want lower fees over- all and exemptions for anyone al- ready living in Baker County. All speakers protested the antici- pated $8000-10,000 overall fee as too high, suggesting the county start - with a few thousand dollars and work up gradually over several years. "If I'd read it would be $2500 in- cluding the School Board, I would feel it was fair. But $7000-10,000 is unreasonable," said Rosa Wilson. The county is proposing to enact a total $3432 base fee: $1500 for roads, $704 for sheriff's department, - $300 for emergency services, $678 for fire department, $250 for recrea- tion. However, that is for a 1500 square foot home; larger homes would incur a $2 per square foot ad- ditional fee. Macclenny and Glen St. Mary are expect- ed to enact identical fees, a recommendation from engineer Frank Darabi of Gainesville, who conducted the county's study. The fig- ures he derived came from building permits the past few years plus projects the county knows are coming. SThe commission and its attorney Terry Brown carefully noted several times that the . a . S .:. $i ^ . .... Il ;.k~i: -i- ~b~ -r, ~sr-,l Speaker Timmy Anderson presented a petition and termed the proposed fees a "big step." county has not yet agreed to the School Board's proposed $4000 for conventional homes, $3000 for mobile homes, $2000 per multi-family unit. The two boards will meet in a joint work- shop at 9 am next Monday, June 13. The commission also promised the approximately 50 citizens attending the June 7 public hear- ing an evening workshop will be scheduled to discuss a dozen points attorney Brown jotted down as people spoke. Among those will be a possible exemption for people replacing a home; this is already written into the proposed ordinance for mo- bile home "switchouts." Both will be null if the original home or trailer is retained as a rental. Another issue raised by Kenny Shook was a possible exemption under the "family lot" zoning provision, in which land can be given to a relative. Mr. Shook said he had removed two old dwellings with plans to replace them with newer homes for his daughters. But Mr. Brown said it is illegal under federal and state laws to only tax newcomers to the county al- S though they are the main focus of Sthe impact fees. "You need to understand the is- sues the commission is facing. De- velopment is coming and the county has got to pay for services. So which do you think is fairer: to increase ad '. valorem taxes on the people already : here, or impact fees on mostly new people?" Mr. Brown asked, enumer- A: ating the need for sheriff's patrol cars, ambulances, fire engines, parks and recreation and road improve- ments. "We may be the only county with 500 miles of unpaved roads. We can maintain them as is, but not with an- other subdivision on a particular road," pointed out Commission Chairman Julie Combs. At the board's request, attorney Brown is drafting an ordinance that will require developers to pave ex- isting roads to get clearance for a new subdi- vision. "I find it hard tobelieve we've got to take this big a step to start with," said Timmy An- derson. "Let's look at different avenues than taxing our children." Developer George Knabb Jr. produced a real estate ad from St. Johns County: a 1261 square foot home with a $639,000 price tag. (Page two please) BY JIM McGAULEY Press Publisher Michael Crews seems to find himself in the news on Memorial Day weekends. In 2004, he and another county deputy were wounded in a gun bat- tle with a robbery suspect in Glen St. Mary. They killed the suspect and the shooting retained high-pro- file status for several weeks. This year, Mr. Crews was once again front and center during the summer's first holiday weekend. This time, he was firing shots again, figuratively, and his target was a proposed landfill off SR 229 south of Sanderson. The site near Elledge Road isn't far from a 30-acre tract and new homes owned by Deputy Crews and one of his broth- ers. Once the neigh- . borhood got wind nearly two weeks ago that a landfill application was the the works, things started to move fast. What happened the following six days was a textbook case in organizing grass-roots acti- vism. It sent Baker County commis-', sioners scurrying for political cover, and killed the land- fill proposal. If a landfill or similar facility is ever proposed for anywhere in Baker County remote or otherwise people are going to look Michael Crew back to Memorial Day weekend, 2005 to remember how it's done. Mr. Crews is this week receiving much of the credit from both sides of the controversy for orga- nizing opposition to the landfill. Interviewed this week, he said he first heard about the proposed landfill in a telephone call May 28 from a person he believed connect- ed to the New River landfill. (No one there admitted making the call). "That person told me three com- missioners had met at the site and this thing had already been decid- ed," he recalls. "I called Junior (his brother) and we decided we weren't going to let that happen. If we fight it and lose, that's one thing; if it's a done deal and we don't do something about that, it's another deal." About that time, a handful of landowners on or near Elledge Road sounded the alarm when they received letters informing them of a public hearing June 7 on the pro- posal for a Class III (anything but garbage) landfill. A core group formed consisting of the Crews brothers, Gail Elledge, (Page two please) This sign, complete with smiley face, was posted last week at CR 125 and Mud Lake Road (CR 130). 'Not sensitive' to landowners, engineer withdraws application BY JIM McGAULEY Press Publisher The county's landfill and envi- ronmental engineer headed off what promised to be one of the liveliest public hearings in recent memory when he cancelled his application for a Class III construction debris landfill south of Sanderson. The hearing was to be have been Tuesday afternoon of this week. In- stead, each of the five county com- missioners received beforehand a written statement from Engineer Frank Darabi of Gainesville. A contrite Mr. Darabi, who pub- licly said last Wednesday he was withdrawing the landfill applica- tion, penned a two-page statement he originally intended to read to the board Tuesday. "I admit and regret that my in- tentions, while for the good of Bak- er County, may have been uninten- tionally not sensitive to the con- cerns of the affected landowners," the engineer-wrote. "I miscalculated the level of op- position and for that I am sorry." The last sentence is a bit of an understatement in light of the ex- plosion of protest that erupted over the Memorial Day holiday weekend once word of the application be- came public (see related article). In a telephone interview at mid- day Tuesday, the engineer said he had been asked to stay away from the meeting later that afternoon. "Mr. Robinson (Commissioner Alex) called me and said it'd proba- bly be better to stay away until this dies down a little," said Mr. Darabi. Chairman Julie Combs made ref- erence to the written statement, and requested the engineer appear be- fore the board in a public session at the next meeting June 20. "I was naive enough to think there would be no opposition," he said during the telephone interview, also revealing that he offered to re- sign at the Tuesday meeting. Mr. Darabi conceded he is con- cerned about his consulting contract status with Baker and several neigh- boring counties in the wake of the landfill controversy. He has made conflicting state- ments about whether he was front- ing for as yet unnamed private trash hauling firms when he applied for the Class III special zoning excep- tion under the name Baker C and D, Inc. He proposed to site the landfill for construction debris on a 217 acre tract at Elledge Road and CR 229 north of the Union County line. While insisting to the board that no side deals or promises with trash haulers preceded the application, Mr. Darabi nonetheless asserted he wanted control as a private individ- ual over the permitting and design process to protect the county's in- terests. "I alone decided it would be best if I controlled the site until there was adequate financial and contrac- tual language to protect the best in- (Page two please) light of the commission schedul- ing an additional workshop on impact fees after citizen feedback it received during a public hear- ing Tuesday.

Rhoden resigns amid fog of doubt Prosecutor says pact with county not tied to possible charges State Attorney Bill Cervone of Gainesville said this week's res- ignation agreement involving a suspended administrative clerk approved by the Baker County Commission will not affect his de- cision on whether to press crimi- nal charges against her. The board passed a consent motion on Tuesday accepting both a resignation letter from Suzanne Rhoden of Sanderson, and a four- part "Settlement Agreement and General Release." The one-page document pre- pared by Ms. Rhoden's Jackson- ville attorney and County Attor- ney Terry Brown, stipulates the resignation is voluntary, thus shielding the ex-employee's ac- cumulated sick leave and one- fourth of unused sick leave. The value of accrued leaves that will now be paid was not im- mediately known. Ms. Rhoden was suspended without pay last month after an audit revealed nearly $14,000 in cash receipts from the county's animal control operation had bi'en unaccoutied for. She was; responsible for receiving funds; from the animal pound and de- positing them. Tuesday's settlement binds the county to take no action against its ex-worker that could jeopar- dize retirement benefits. Con- versely, it prevents Ms. Rhoden from taking action against Baker County on any issue arising from her seven-year employment. Prosecutor Cervone, who was back in Gainesville after a week's vacation the same afternoon as the agreement was approved, said he expected several "loose ends" of his office's probe of the theft allegations will be completed up- on his return. "I had not made a decision (whether to prosecute) before I left and I expect one will be forth- coming," said the prosecutor. "In any case, it will be inde- pendent of any action taken by either party up to this point. It (the settlement) won't bind us any more than I could bind what they do." Indications were strong that a deal between the attorneys was in the works last week when a scheduled "pre-termination" con- ference at the county administra- tive office was cancelled. It was to have been on May 31. Fees vote is delayed The Baker County School Board did not formalize its re- quest for an impact fee at its June 6 meeting because the proposal had not been completed in time. The board can vote on it at the next meeting June 20 or call a special meeting to adopt the pro- posal. Because the board cannot le- gally pass its own impact fee; it must submit a request to the county commission for approval and enactment. Board members had hoped to present their proposal to the com- mission June 13, but that time frame is uncertain, especially in THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS Thursday, June 9, 2005 Page Two % I %IHrI Ii UMt4, %%1 pope &*mk iN t 4 I%1 % 0 o ,* 0*- 0 W- s 4W i W _ - . 4 O 0 'Copyrighted Material S- Syndicated Content -Available from Commercial News Providers a S S 0 * 0 ...S Go o 0 o-0 1 I I -~ 40 * 0. .-7 W.- O Textbook case... (from page one) Lovurn Rivers, Kay Force and Ger- ald Ray Rhoden, a fellow deputy. They met at Ms. Rivers' home and decided to call a community meeting for the evening of May 7, the day after Memorial Day. Territories were assigned for handing out 1500 flyers they hasti- ly printed announcing the meeting, and the group split up over the holiday weekend to hand-deliver them. They blanketed an swatch of land roughly running from the Un- ion County line north to Mud Lake Road, then east to 121. "We also told people to call landowners who live out-of-town and make sure they knew about it," said Mr. Crews. "We also tried to get back to those who were gone over the holiday." They procured the most logical and convenient location the San- derson United Revival Center - and worked almost up until the time of the meeting that evening making sure people knew about, it. "I didn't sleep Monday night, I was so worried about the turnout," Mr. Crews confessed. "I truly couldn't have told you it was go- ing to be 25 or 325." He should have bet on the latter S number. SJust before the meeting was to begin, Michael called his brother to get some hint of what he could expect when he drove up to the church. His fears were unfounded. "He told me 'You just have to see it, there's cars everywhere."' His nerves settled a bit and Mi- chael Crews went on to emcee the packed meeting, organizing further S opposition to the application and making plans for everyone to re- convene at this week's public hear- ing: The public hearing that never 'tookplace. Within hours, applicant Frank Darabi of Gainesville decided to withdraw the request (see related article). County commissioners, including Julie Combs, whose dis- trict envelopes the 229 corridor, were quickly backing away from the idea that some had openly sup- ported earlier as a revenue source. The grass-roots campaign had worked. "What did we learn? We learn-. ed that the public basically didn't know anything about this," declar- ed Mr. Crews. "We also didn't talk to a soul who was for it, whether they lived out there or not. People are just dead set on not having Baker County become a dumping ground for other counties. "A lot of people who've con- tacted me the past week said they were behind us because they don't want something like this happen- ing in their part of the county. We had people at the meeting from Macclenny and Baxter." In an ironic twist, Mr. Crews is in the process of forming his, own business building debris removal and site cleanup. "I was very clear to Mr. Darabi when I first talked to him. I agreed that Baker County could use a place to dump this kind of stuff. But I know there has to be a better spot than out there." There is no concrete evidence that county commissioners dis- cussed the proposal among them- selves as alleged, but the allega- tiori' itself was, according to mem- bers of the core protest group, suf- ficient motivation for most of the persons they contacted to become involved.

In an apparent contradiction,.he acknowledged in the telephone in- terview he had discussed the land- fill with three private companies that had been scouring the region for a place to dispose of construc- tion debris. Mr. Darabi did not name them, but inferred much of the trash would be coming from outside Baker County. He also told the board the con- cept of a Class III operation had been in the works as long ago as five years, and other sites adjacent to the old Steel Bridge landfill and off US 90 in Baker County west of the Nassau County line were also explored. rabi is the consultant there also) For.v-arious reasons. fiegnoti-a- ;..,'accepts trash; from other-areasas' b 'tions with the landowners collaps- well, and uses the excess:as!areve-'r ed, and the Rayonier site off 229 nue source to offset costs. emerged as a likely prospect.

County commissioners held a public hearing on the fees Tuesday night, probably thinking they were on the fast track to enact. After all, up to that point they'd been riding the express train, plan- ning to have the law on the books by July 1. Waiting on the platform, howev-- er, were a group of citizens wanting to do a little back-seat conducting. Chairwoman Julie Combs sat with a stack of requests from peo- ple who signed up to offer their in- sight and advice. And one-by-one they did just that. Most were uncomfortable speaking to a roomful of politi- cians, reporters and fellow citi- zens, but they told their stories - usually personal, nearly always thoughtful. And in the end, effective. Ms. Combs and the rest of the board agreed to schedule a work- shop to consider the points raised by the public. It was a textbook example of Impact fee rates need modification Dear Editor: This letter is in response to your recent articles about impact fees. Contrary to what some may be- lieve, most of the homes in Copper Creek are not 3000-4000 square foot homes. My husband and I live in that neighborhood and I would venture to say that most of the families liv- ing there are working people, some with young families working hard to have something nice. The new impact fees would, in reality, affect anyone building a new home or buying a new mobile home. I find it amazing that people who have lived in the county for many years will have to (if they want to build a new home in the future) help pay for new facilities, roads and schools for incoming people that developers are bring- ing into the county. Let the new people here pay the fees and the people who have sup- ported this county for years be ex- empt from impact fees. We live in a 2028 square foot house, and if we were to build it this summer, it would cost about $8488 more just for the impact fees. I wonder what more of an impact I would be having on Bak- er County, since I am already here with no added people in my household or burden on the coun- ty's resources. About $4000 of that fee would be for schools, although I would not be bringing any children into the school system. There should be adjustments for persons who have no children to use school resources or otherwise don't cause an added burden on the count\.. Let the developers. who stand to make enormous prof- its, pay the fees. Ihope our public officials take their time and study this situation a, little longer, and maybe make some adjustments. They want to hurry so they can get the fees passed be- fore all the new construction on big subdivisions begins, but please consider the long-time residents of the county.

Pingel ADVERTISING/GRAPHICS Jessica Prevatt & Laura Briner FEATURES & COMMENT- Robert BUSINESS MANAGER KarinTh CLASSIFIED ADS'- Barbara Black democracy in action. But it wasn't the only one here recently. Exactly one week prior to the impact fee hearing, a few hundred people filed into a south Sander- son church to air their displeasure at plans to put a landfill in their neighborhood. The citizen-leaders conducted a by-the-book campaign, going door-to-door to educate, motivate and congregate the people, and making sure the media were there to bear witness.' Again, it worked. The landfill proposal was tossed in the trash the very next day, even before the citizen uprising made its way to the commission cham- bers. Coincidentally, the proposal had been scheduled to be on Tuesday's agenda. Had it remained there, along with the impact fee hearing, it would have been a perfect storm of vox populi. It's easy, as a reporter, to grow cynical about the way things work. We sit in workshop after work- shop, hearing after hearing and meeting after meeting, usually withonly other reporters and gov- ernment officials in attendance as so many aspects of people's lives are decided without their input. It's hard to say whether they don't know, don't care or don't feel they can make a difference. To be honest, I've always been skeptical about how much influ- ence the average person can have on the heavy machinery of govern- ment. That's why it's so heartening to see it happen. Especially in a era when intol- erance, name-calling, finger-point- ing, shouting and outright lying passes for political discourse. Especially when patriotism is defined by trite sayings on bumper stickers or the bombastic bleatings of no-talent country singers mak- ing a career out of two-and-a-half minutes of jingoistic disharmony. What democracy is or at least what it was meant to be is a few hundred people taking time out of their lives to drive to a church in Sanderson or commission cham- bers in Macclenny on a sweltering day, still in their work clothes, squeezing in to a packed room, lis- tening to others and waiting to be heard, then standing up to tell their elected leaders just what kind of community they want to live in. Takin GOP view of issues does t equate to 'informed' Dear Editor: Regarding the writer last week of the letter headlined "Seeks po- litical integrity again," her goal was to be informed so she could make good, informed choices when she voted. It looks to me that she went to Washington as a Republican, stud- ied with the Republicans and came home as a Republican. If this lady is truly seeking political integrity, she should understand integrity be- fore she asks us to go along with the version George Bush is giving us. He has not shown me any trust- worthiness or honesty. George Bush ran on "cleaning up the White House" but it looks like he moved it to Crawford, Tex- as. He also misled us into a war with false reasons. If you lie to the government, you go to jail; if he lies to us, it's okay. Hmm. I do not like his Social Security reform and I don't like it pushed off on us. I do not like the Patriot Act that lakes a\\ a some of our liberties to fight "terrorists." One should never give up liberty for se- curity. The Republicans in Washington have shown me they will use pow- er in any way they can to get What they want, even if it's changing the rules. They try to get a dirty name across every time they use the word "liberal." If you say anything to them, they scream "abortion." If you don't believe in abortion, don't get one. Simple. Republicans are against liberal judges and trial lawyers, but any- one is a "liberal" who doesn't agree with them. Judges and law- yers should follow the law, wheth- er they are liberal or conservative. It's also coming to a point where you have to be a Republican to join a church. I will never change, so don't push me to just go along with the crowd. We should not have to vote in a church; keep the voting places separate. Churches are for worship. I ask our elected Democrats in this county to start acting like Dem- ocrats again and be proud of it. JENNIE M. RICHARDSON Glen St. Mary 'Visitation' isnot always that Dear Editor: This letter is in reference to the child visitation system. It seems the parent who has the. child living with:them can eVade, ,any courtoirder.` Weeks can pass with no visits to0'the other parent- for one reason or another. Weeks can turn into months with no .isits or paper% ork, while whichever parents the child lives with fills his ;or her head with lies and false ac- cusations.. ' When childreki do riot see both parents and are exposed daily only, to one parent, they think what they hear is right because they haven't seen or talked to the other parent. The children can be abused ver- bally and emotionally into believ- ing the other parent doesn't care for them, and they will think this is true. Step-parents can also be con- stantly under the gun for caring for the children. Children are shaken to see a step-parent because of what another parent says, and sometimes a step-parent can be us- ed as an excuse as to why visita- tion is not allowed.

Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers ViI; Commissioner Combs failed her constituents 'miserably' on landfill Dear Editor: There are several issues that resulted in. last week's dump proposal getting dumped. First, it is clear that when such a site is going to be considered, the number one priority should be the location. Baker County needs a con- struction debris landfill; however, careful attention should be given when selecting the site. Commissioner Julie Combs suggested that the NIMBY (not in my backyard!) was in play here. Not so. What was in play was the NIABY (not in anybody's backyard!) syndrome. Not even her backyard. There is plenty of open land in Baker County accessible from state roads, therefore deferring maintenance costs to the state instead of Baker County taxpayers alone, especially when the landfill is going to be privately owned. Frank Darabi, who (for now at least) is the county engineer and ad- visor to the county board, had a personal financial stake in the project, and that is like leaving the fox to watch the hen house. Mr. Darabi ap- peared to have some commissioners standing in a dump smelling mon- ey, while trying to convince opponents they would be smelling roses . while living in a dump. Some of Mr. Darabi's comments to the media,' were ludicrous and insulting. SWhich brings up a third issue,Insulted is what the voters of District one were by their elected commissioner sounding out in favor of the dump. When Commissioner Combs was contacted by some of her con- stituents, she said, "I support the landfill and I am excited about the revenue that will be generated by it." Well, I'll bet she was! How ironic is it that the name which appeared on the exception application, C&D, Inc., bears the same initials as Combs and Darabi? (Actually it stood for "construction and demolition debris.) Since Mr. Darabi withdrew his application last week, Commissioner Combs has been marching to a different beat. She has had more posi- tions on this landfill than a two-hour yoga session. In the beginning she was "excited" and now she says she wouldn't vote for a landfill if it was in the middle of the Osceola Forest. Commissioner Combs, if there was a need for the landfill last week, there still is a need. Look for the right location so the county can have a source of revenue that it needs. SCommissioner Combs failed her constituents miserably, and in 2008 some will do their part to get her to march once again to a different beat right down the road. She would have you believe she wasn't aware of Mr. Darabi's intentions, and that she knew very little about the proposal. If that is the case, one must then ask the question why was Commissioner Combs so "excited" about the proposal if she knew so little about it? R.L. CREWS, JR. Sanderson Everyone helped to stop landfill Dear Editor: Our thanks to the citizens who participated in the efforts to stop the C&D landfill project. There is no doubt had it not been for the community's involvement, from hundreds of phone calls to be- ing present at a community meet- ing, south Sanderson would cer- tainly have become north Florida's ' construction .dump site. Special thanks to Pastor De- wayne Bridges and members of the Sanderson United Revival Center for use of their facility to' hold the community gathering.

If people can afford that size of home, they can afford to pay more." While his premise smacks of a typical "Robin Hood" attitude, that is not the real rub. As a public offi- cial speaking at a board meeting, it would be wise to check one's facts before opening one's-mouth. Few homes in Copper Creek are in the 3000-4000 square-foot range unless you count unheated spaces, and even that is a stretch. The majority of homes in the sub- division are considerably less than 3000 square feet, closer to an aver- age just over 2000 square feet of heated living space. To characterize Copper Creek as a luxury high end subdivision is simply ludicrous. The homes and grounds are generally well land- scaped, neat and clean. Pride of ownership is obvious. Estate size homes and lots are not. I'm proud to live in Baker County, the City of Macclenny and the Copper Creek subdivision. If this is the only way our elected of- ficials can make a point, I hope the citizens who elect our commis- sioners and board members re- member these articulate forward thinking leaders when we next go to the polls.

A nearby resident heard the alarm and stopped police to report it. Deputy Adam Faircloth re- sponded to the store at 1:01 am and found an employee there who had also heard the alarm. The owner, Clarence Williams, arrived a short time later. They went inside to find a bath- room window broken out, the same one used in a recent burglary. Two Blata motorcycles were missing; each was valued at $1700. Mr. Williams found them during a search of a nearby wood- ed area. A suspect was interviewed but .released, and the investigation is ongoing. In other property crimes: Someone kicked in the door at Bradford Rentals on west Mac- clenny Avenue over the Memorial Day weekend and stole $360 from a cash box. Matthew Carver, the manager, said the key had been left in the lock of the cash box. He told police he suspected an employee who'd been fired from. the store's Starke location several weeks ago. In the meantime, that store had been burglarized twice and the Middleburg store once. Police were unable to immedi- ately locate the suspect, who does not live in this area. SJosephine Hartsfield of Mac- clenny reported June 3 that a mag- azine company had twice with- drawn $99.99 from her bank ac- count that day. She said the com- pany also took $199.99 from her account in March. She could not provide police with the name of the company. Charles Guernsey and Janice Harris of Glen St. Mary told police June 4 someone had stolen their Bob Cat mower from an empty lot adjacent to Mr. Guernsey's home on SW Clinton Avenue. He said the last time he saw the mower was June 3. The mower and the trailer it was on were valued at $6000.

The woman, 17, told police she was sleeping when her husband, James Davis, 23, came into the room at 11:21 am and began yelling at her and pushing her. She went to another room to get away from him, but he followed her, grabbed her by the neck and held her down on the bed by the throat. Deputy Greg Burnsed noted a scratch on her cheek and redness on her neck. Three witnesses confirmed her version of events, although one said she saw the woman pushing back. The officer spoke with Mr. Davis, who said they'd argued and pushed each other. He had scratches on his neck and a cut lip from his wife hitting him in the face with a soft drink can. Mr. Davis was arrested because he was the primary aggressor. Prier 175867 A summer at Sylvan offers: A personal summer plan created just for your child.

The Jordans also said Mr. Nor- man's wife, Ashley Norman, made harassing phone calls to their home. A circuit court judge removed the two children from the Nor- man's home and ordered Jesse, 22, and Ashley, 19, not to contact the Jordans or the children. It was a few hours before the custody hearing that Mr. Norman called the Jordans, the couple told Man drunk at Waffle House A MIacclenn man was arrested June 5 for disorderly intoxication after an early morning disturbance at the Waffle House.

"I ain't gonna lie, I did chase them down and bump the rear of his car." Eddie Collingwood also tried to deny participating in the incident, saying his truck had been broken down for weeks. However, the deputies found fresh damage to the vehicle and noted that the engine was still hot. All three Collingwoods were arrested, but Eddie was later re- leased because he is a juvenile. Speeding on interstate, had pot containers A Kentucky man stopped for speeding on Interstate 10 June 4 was arrested for misdemeanor pos- session of marijuana after police found several small containers containing pot. Eddie Cato, 30, of Radcliff was clocked driving 97 miles per hour in a 70 mph zone eastbound on I- 10 near US 90. Deputy Benjamin Anderson stopped him at 12:47 am and ran a computer check of his criminal record, which turned up several drug convictions. The officer asked to search the car and found a small film contain- er of marijuana in the back seat. There were also rolling papers, a metal cylinder used to separate the seed from the weed and a metal pipe in the shape of a cigarette. In the trunk, the deputy found two small bags of marijuana, a glass pipe and a Mason jar more than half full of pot. There was no scale available to weigh the marijuana, but Mr. Cato was charged with misdemeanor possession, which means less than 20 grams. He also was charged with pos- session of drug paraphernalia, and cited for speeding.

Sandler is no Reynolds, who has a small role as the coach in the remake, but he does a credible job here, and it is full of enough laughs to keep his legion of fans happy. Sandler plays former NFL MVP quarterback Paul Crewe, who was discredited and thrown out of the NFL for shaving points in a game. After a drunk driving incident, he is thrown into jail in Texas. The prison has made a name for itself by fielding a semi-pro team of guards who are former champs of the Texas Prison League. The warden, played ably by James Cromwell in the role originated by Eddie Albert, desperately wants to get back to the top and wants Crewe to help him by fielding a team of cons for a warm-up game before his season begins. As in the original, Crewe puts together a team of misfits, who know very little about playing football, but are motivated by a desire to get back at the guards. After some funny miscues, Crewe begins to whip them into shape for the game, as you knew he would. The movie is grounded with seasoned pros like Reynolds, San- dler, Cromwell and Chris Rock. The team is made up of ex-football players such as Michael Irvin, Bri- an Bosworth and Tony Serguso, rapper Nelly and wrestlers Kevin Nash, Steve Austin and Bill Gold- berg. Surprisingly, the amateurs are very good. Irvin and S,'rLusoL were -r--game commentators after they left .. .,-. and are obviously us- ed to the camera. B',,:'.:. .-, had a brief movie and television career aner his fI:..,i:,l career tanked. The pro-wrestlers are also very tz,;,,i W i.,li linu ii ,.tl..rtiinrl cnt and they easily make the switch to the big screen from the little one. Nash particularly is hilarious as a steroid user whose drugs are switched with estrogen and starts to take on female characteristics. But the standout is rapper Nelly, who could, like Ice-T before him, have a long career in films after his rapping days are through. As running back Earl Megget, he is a natural. He looks completely at home in front of the camera and exudes a boyish charm that makes him very likeable on screen. Chris Rock is his usual wise- cracking self. With Rock, it's just a matter of changing costume, since the character is always the same. But he is there as comic relief and does a steady job. With Sandier in the cast, you wouldn't think you'd need comic relief, but Sandler is taking roles that are serio-comic, and this one is no exception. In Paul Crewe he plays a much darker character than the bumbler he usually, portrays, and it is clear he is struggling a lit- tle. In a lot of scenes he comes across as slightly surly. It's only in the scenes where he.gets to use his sarcastic humor that he looks com- pletely comfortable. If you watch the two movies got suggestions story ideas As simple as an e-mail.....

Reynolds could play serious and comic without ever loosing that tongue in cheek, twinkle in the eye that let you know he was setting you up for something. With Sandler, it's a little more forced. That's not to say he can't handle the part he's just not up to Rey- nolds' chops. For FSU fans, listen closely for Reynold's Seminole reference. He played for the Semi- noles, so there was no way FSU was going to miss being mention- ec in a football movie. The football segments are good, but predictable. You'd have to not be paying much attention to miss knowing Reynolds is getting on the field at some point. Nelly shines in the football sequences and there are some monster hits. This is a good summer comedy. It's pretty raunchy, so it's not for the whole family, however. The Longest Yard is rated PG- 13 for language, violence and sex- ual and drug references; I give it 21/2 out of 3 stars. American Enterprise Bank Loan Production Office 692 W.

Developers have been taking advantage of you, but Departments seek space expansion In its final two interviews with department heads, the Baker County Buildings and Facilities Committee learned June 1 that both the county road yard and rec- reation shop need more room. Although the committee had earlier discussed whether a site further east might be more central, Road Superintendent Robert Fletch- .er said the Sanderson location re- mains ideal. "I'd prefer to stay there, if we can get more land. If we can't, there's no sense building anything more new there because we're go- ing to outgrow it." The main need is parking for 31 current employees expected to increase as the county grows, plus space to store equipment and ma- terials. Mr. Fletcher said the road yard is "just getting by"on storage of limerock, dirt and bridge tim- bers. "My next concern is the shop, which was built in the 1940s. It's an open tin barn, and the concrete floor has holes. We have two smaller shops built about three years ago, a service bay and sign shop," Mr Fletcher explained, add- ing he was "really surprised" the barn's tin roof stayed on during last fall's hurricane season. Shoplifter is tackled A Macclenny man was tackled by a store manager and several by- standers, then arrested for shoplift- ing June 3 after trying to steal pills to help him pass a drug test. After his arrest, Joseph August, 19, explained to police: "I just got out of jail and I'm on probation and I have to see my probation officer today and I was afraid I would test positive for marijuana so I went to Winn Dixie and stole a bottle of pills to help me pass the drug test.". The bottle of 100 Niacin, which apparently affects the metabolism,. costs $2.49. Mr. August triggered an alarm when he tried to leave the store, then refused to stop when store manager Tom Debruhl called to him. He took off running across the parking lot and down Barber Road, where he was nabbed. -lI Nos.ePit Gray wi 5th.witeI Homes are situated at the north and south ends of the three-acre tract, privately owned acreage on the other two sides. Mr. Fletcher estimates about 1.5 more acres would suffice. In the department's other re- sponsibility, Mr. Fletcher said the county's current eight garbage col- lection sites are adequate. "We'd hoped to go to curbside collection and that is practical but it costs and no-one wants to pay more money," he explained. Two private companies were charging about $11 per month for twice weekly pickup when the county discussed a franchise pro- posal in February 2004. Work space is also a problem 'for Recreatioi Director Donald Combs. "The maintenance shop is in- adequate for the amount of equip- ment we're getting,' he said of the site in the Knabb Ballfield Com- plex on North Boulevard. There is room for two more work bays, he estimated. The county is acquiring more parks and recreation sites, includ- ing the recent addition of the 1600 acre St. Mary's Shoals Park and Cuyler Park, both in the north county, plus a 20 acre parcel on west US 90. None of the three has been developed yet. Mr. Combs is also responsible for the Fairgrounds, Minger Field, Little River Park off US 90, Jones- ville Park north of Sanderson, Mar- garetta, Taylor and Olustee parks. The department's duties will ex- pand as the county plans to require subdivision developers to set aside land for and perhaps build more parks. "There are no bathrooms except Portolets at $60-70 a month for regular, $140 for handicap, and those rentals eat up my budget," Mr. Combs said. He estimated more than half his $13,000 annual allocation for rentals and leases goes for Portolets. However, county secretary and committee member Ann Yarbor- ough said permanent facilities are a problem also. "Someone has to maintain them, and there's always vandalism," she noted. SCommittee Chairman Jim Mc- Gauley noted another drawback: installation' and maintenance of wells and septic tanks. The Baker County Commission is consider- ing building water and sewer treat- ment plants at the St. Mary's Shoals park, facilities that could be expanded to handle much of the subdivision growth anticipated in the north county area. However, one drawback may be how to han- dle the treated effluent from the sewer treatment. While some environmentalists object to the likelihood it would be discharged into the river, engineer Frank Darabi noted it will be "clearer" water than the tannin- colored natural flow. However, the discharge can not be more than one-fourth of the low-flow rate un- der drought conditions, Mr. Darabi told the commission in a May 10 workshop. Chairman McGauley' distribu- ted draft copies of a report he will present to the commission June 20. It includes recommendations for; County courthouse a mainte- nance agreement for the heating and cooling system. Parking lot seepage and basement flooding seem to be controlled. County jail expansion to handle more boarded prisoners, possibly via a not-for-profit corpo- ration for a bond issue that will not encumber the county. The commit- tee feels strongly the jail should be kept near the courthouse. Annex housing the property appraiser, tax collector and elec- tions supervisor needs roof re- pairs and parking lot resurfaced. Fire/rescue services relocate the Sanderson and South Macclen- ny stations, add parking to the Emergency Operations Center, add a station north of Glen St. Mary. 'I Quality tested...soaking wet!

Others can choose not to move here and avoid the fees." John Pearce suggested the coun- ty consider imposing the fee when a mortgage is closed rather than on the permit fee at the start. "Some people want to work on the house awhile, then get the financing," he reasoned. In contrast to usual public hear- ings, the commission did not vote on the proposed impact fees that evening. And with only one more regularly scheduled meeting this month, it does not appear the fees will be in place by July 1 as origi- nally planned.

Instead, he will take a job teaching, but not coaching, at For- rest High S School on Jack- sonville's West- side. "My son will be a freshman Sf-next year. I'm ( not coaching, I'm just going to be a dad." Sherman Reed After getting married and moving to Green Cove Springs in November, Reed said he became worn down by the commute and hit hard by rising gas prices. "You add in the late night ball games, the away games, and I wasn't getting home until past midnight some times," he said in an interview June 6. Reed, 45, spent 13 years teach- ing in Baker County, coaching off and on throughout. His resignation is effective July 1. "Coaching was definitely worth the time, I loved it. I hate to leave," he said, adding that his best mem- ory is coaching last year's golf team to a 13-1 record and qualify- ing two kids for regionals. He said he'll miss Baker Coun- ty. "This is a great school, athletes and a great community. The par- ents were always so supportive. I'm going to miss it, definitely." Athletic Director Melody Cog- gin said she hasn't yet come up with a replacement. "There's no blanket policy as to hiring coaches. It depends on the applicants, their performance in the classroom, experience, et cete- ra. We've still got a couple of weeks, it's no big hurry." SReed told the Press he would like to see assistant coach Jami Rodgers replace him. "Coach Reed hasn't made a for- mal recommendation as to a re- placement," Coggin said. "As for a golf replacement, we're hoping whoever takes over baseball will take over golf." A few of Reed's players who vill be returning.next season talk- ed with the Press and also express- ed a preference for Rodgers. A baseball star at all levels in Baker County, Rodgers went on to play for Jacksonville University. He has been working for the school district about a year as a long-term substitute teacher, and is currently working toward his teach- ing certificate. ."I respect Sherman Reed and everything he stands for," Rodgers said. "I respect him as a coach and in the classroom." When asked about taking over for Reed, Rodgers, 26, was more guarded than the players or. his predecessor. "The chances of me being head coach are low. I see myself as head coach one day, but right now might not be the right time. I haven't even put in an application." As for the rest of the summer baseball schedule, the season ends in mid-July, so a replacement or assistant coach will handle the re- maining schedule after Reed's de- parture. Tourney cancelled The Council on Aging Charity Golf Tournament has been cancel- led. It will be rescheduled at a later date. Details will be announced then.

I don't nec- essarily think it's the same in the rest of the world. With the exception of baseball, where the average fan can proba- bly name eight or ten foreign-born players, we're sadly lacking in world view of sports. I was watching the French Open last weekend and there was a nota- ble lack of Americans playing. An- dre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Lind- sey Davenport and the rest all went out in the early rounds. The French Open isa clay court event and not really conducive to the kind of game Americans play. Nonetheless, there were still some big names in the tournament. The world's number one player made it to the semis before being booted b\ a relatively unknown teenager. But ask any American about the number one men's tennis player in the world. and if he or she can e\en name a single tennis player, it would probably be Agassi or Rod- dick, not Sw\itzerland's Roger Fed- erer. On the %women's side of the net. if \ou ask an American to name a foreign female player, the first name to pop up is Anna Kouriko- va. But she doesn't really count because she w\as more a fashion model than a tennis player, having never won a single significant tournament. Besides. she's retired. lMrtina Navratilova? Retired. Steffi Graf? Retired. How about Maria Sharapova? Well, she does- n't count either. She was born in Russia, but has lived in Florida most of her life and speaks better English than I do. Okay, golf. \We can probably name a few foreign golfers if we watch the game. Like baseball, golf is the onl\ real mass market sport \\here for- eigners get name recognition. Er- nie Els. SerLio Garcia. Greg Nor- nn., Colin Montgomer, V'ija\ Singh. those are pretty recogniz- abic names. Cani-d.'+in Ste-e--.-Nash Is t[ie *MVP of the NBA and there are a handful of foreign players NBA fans could name, like Yao Ming, but personally, I can't name a sin- gle foreign player who isn't in the NBA. Even though I love the sport, I suppose soccer doesn't count since it's a minor sport here in the US. Most people can't name any for- eign players besides maybe Pele, who's been retired for 20 years, and possibly David Beckham, the Brit who plays for Real Madrid. But the only reason we know him .is because of the movie Bend It Like Beckham, his marriage to Posh Spice or the fact that he's a cover boy model for a half a dozen products. However, soccer doesn't really .cye Sound count because your average sports fan couldn't name an American player with the exception, maybe, possibly, of Landon Donovan. Demarcus Beasley, Kasey Kel- ler, Brad Friedel and Brian Mc- Bride, the stars of the US national soccer team, are less well-known and less well-paid than the third- string quarterback of the New York Giants. I suppose that's only natural, but we are missing a lot of good athletes and a lot of good perfor- mances that way.
