Councilman Schofield may label the FCCIA as having “perverted logic” by assuming the councilmen think it is their money. The money belongs to the taxpayers – let the people decide by voting in a referendum. Never before, in the history of Florence County, has there been an outcry by 11,000 people for change.

They consider themselves the final authority for how county funding should be collected and spent and apparently are appalled that the citizens of Florence County might question their decisions. They seem to forget they are elected to serve and not to dictate. I hope their constituents take note of little they value our opinions.

This will definately be an eye opening experience. Suzanne Sinclair recently received a substantial pay raise well above the 2.5%. It's amazing how having a relationship with, then marrying Joe King, the former Administrator and now Economic development director lines her purse with gold. Suzanne Sinclair was promoted rapidly under former administrator Joe King, being handed the Deputy Administrator position under his helm . Shortly after Joe King moved to Economic Development, Joe King and Suzanne Beeson Sinclair were married. Richard Starks has continued the waste of Florence County Taxpayer monies by pushing Suzanne Sinclair King's salary even higher. Get salary history of all $50k and up Florence County employees for the last 7 years. FOIA Richard Starks requesting 7 year salary and position history of Suzanne Sinclair King.
