NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- Here is my question for the readers this week: Is "corruption, collusion and cronyism" taking place in New Smyrna Beach? You bet it is! As a matter of fact, based on the information and evidence readily available, the problem is more widespread now than at anytime in the last five years during the current and previous mayoral reigns.

As for the our elected officials' promise of transparency, it only exists as long as the political hot air did, the proof of which will come out during the election season next year.

Rumor now has it that there will be at least two challengers for the mayor's position, and no one else is going to run unchallenged! As for the corruption issue, we have the same group of folks lining their pockets with an endless stream of CRA money, which I don't need to remind you is your money.
