putnam...have you ever met magel?...have any of you ever met the man? in my opionion...vote every incumbant out...whether they are a councilman, commissioner, congressman, senator or what have you. and for your information many of the people that contributed to magel's campaign are ordinary working folks.
trust me, hideaway pays more than their fair share of money to this island...and they give to the needy constantly....like breast cancer and the guadeluope kids to mention two.
and as for the cost to taxpayers for beach re-nourishment....all hideaway owners have been paying a special city/county assessment for 5 years with 5 to go for the saving of the north beach...that anyone and everyone on marco can use...if they come by boat...and hideaway paid for the traffic light at collier/.kendall because the previous city mgr did not budget it.

why not rant about the marco yacht club or the island country club...they have more affluent members than the 600 owners in hideaway...
so...bottom line...do not hold hideaway against magel..i don't know the guy from a load of beans(except from his resume)...but neither do those who are chastising him...i don't live in hideaway...but i gave to his campaign...we need fresh ideas and new blood on this council.
now...i may change my mind after i hear more from magel...but i don't need putnam running down someone he does not even know ...unless he has the facts to back it up.
