Good news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Both the man and woman will be ok and are very lucky!!!

The careless operation citation???????? Very weak and without eye witnesses, no holdy-upe-in-courte!!!!!!!

Wave runners are desingned and intended for rider enjoyment and "fun", absent inebreation or other obvious abuses, according to the investigation, this was just a bad accident!

Truth be told, if this man was not an employee of the City of Marco, this would have been a closed case the day after occurance!!!!!!!!!!!

You Know,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of the residents hold the record on Cheap!!No where that I can see is any darn money missing!! Procedurally, funds were moved around to cover contracts and balances, Please!

The council should be considerate and cautious in addressing Mr. Thompsons performance and should consider the totality of circumstances.

Thus far, He is an effective manager and deserves a very favorable report!!

Be Careful boy's

On Search for new Marco Parks and Recreation director begins

Posted on October 28 at 4:22 p.m.

This place is "Something Else"!!!!!!!!!

This sudden retirement is going to turn out to be, Just another black eye for this City!!

Briefly for now, These little neighborhood councilors that come into being think far to often that their job is to carry out the day to day operational details of the City as opposed to being the represententatives of their respective areas. Shoot from the hip mentality is the rule rather than the exception on any issue that seems to surface. If they keep it up I would fear that they will no doubt run off the new manager who has not only done a very good job, but by any objective measures has greatly added to the City's professional bearing in general.

Marco Island, if you want to continualy be the headlines then keep moving down this path and if we are not the laughing stock of the County we can shoot for a larger image??

Do the 250k audit, respect Mr. Souza's decision,develope a consenious on changing reporting guidelines and improving internal communications and for God's sake, support this fine manager or risk loosing another employee!!

Excellent !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is no need for me to view any vidio, these very responsible and fair public officials and manager's have explained things in a very clear and appropriate manner.

Not only am I impressed with the objective and fair description of the circumstances by the Police Chief, I have found new respect for Mr. Recker. No one denies responsibilty, mistakes are clearly stated but, the real culprits of the events that put these actions and decisions in motion were none other than the activities and behaviors of these culpable arrestee's! Mr. Recker's willingness to go to bat for the officer in connection with the F.D.L.E. Investigation is truelly admirable without a doubt.If he really wants to help though, he needs to turn it down just a notch!
There is no doubt that things went wrong in this situation however, that is the basis that creates the need for law enforcement in the first place. Much of what the police do is actually waiting for the moment for things to go wrong in the community, thus the need for a police response and action. Everything boils down to how the action that the police take turns out.Police Officers are humans, although trained to understand and avoid provocations such as this, but there are times that even with the training that thier emotion and perhaps anger get involved.In most cases,99.5%, the situation is responded to effectively and all parties are on their way. When a situation like this occurs, eveyone knows about it!!
It's great for the community to know that leaders, such as the Chief and Councilman Recker, have properly evaluated the matter and continue to support this officer and the Police Department.
Much to be proud of here!!!!!!!!
