WESLEY CHAPEL/NEW TAMPA EDITION

By Michael [email protected]

By the end of next year, State Road 56will be more crowded than ever.

A new Mercedes dealership. A long-await-ed outlet mall and the different stores it willbring. Yet another hotel, this time 120rooms.

Not bad for a road that, just a little morethan a decade ago, didn’t even exist.

Joining all that, however, is an ice andsports complex so big, it might make exist-ing facilities in Ellenton, Oldsmar and maybeeven Brandon a bit jealous.

Apartment developer GordieZimmermann and his colleagues Z MitchLLC, closed on 13 acres of land last week on

Cypress Ridge Boulevard for $2.6 million,where they plan to build a 155,500-square-foot ice and sports complex complete withfour pads of ice, a restaurant, and room forother sports in the community.

Zimmermann’s development team is in-vesting more than $20 million in theproject, all so that Zimmermann’s hockeyteam — and other teams like it — won’thave to travel so far anymore to find a sheetof ice in Florida.

“I was operating down in the Brandon fa-cility, and I noticed that the adult hockeyprogram had taken over,” Zimmermann saidof Ice Sports Forum, a two-pad complex healso owns. “The kids had limited ice time

Pasco County has strict ordinancesagainst temporary signs, but the prolifera-tion of tall advertising flags known as“feather signs” has some county commis-sioners looking to make those ordinanceseven more restrictive.

However, Pasco County commissionerssaid they would wait at least long enoughfor the homebuilding community to weighin — an industry that heavily depends onsuch temporary advertisement.

“We’re hoping that you’ll allow us to puttogether a policy that provides us a pathwayfor compliance,” said Jennifer Doerfel, execu-tive vice president of the Tampa BayBuilders Association, which represents

homebuilders locally. “We do not want tosee blight, and we certainly don’t want tosee tattered signs, and we’re part of thiscommunity, too. We want to make sure thislooks great, because that’s what attracts buy-ers to our homes.”

The signs have become common in frontof businesses, especially on U.S. 41 throughthe center part of Pasco, where retailersfight to grab attention from a heavily trav-eled highway artery. They are usuallyanchored into the ground like flags, and are

Maya Angelou’s recent death capturedheadlines around the world. And that’s a fit-ting response, said Janet Watson, a poet wholives in Wesley Chapel.

“I’m so pleased that the world haspaused for a moment to realize that poetryhas value, and to mourn the passing of agreat poet,” said Watson, a member of theNew River Poets group, which meets inWesley Chapel.

Watson believes that poetry has tremen-dous power, to help build understandingand connections.

She compares poetry to photography —both are capturing a moment in time.

“Everybody has a voice, has a poeticvoice,” Watson said, but some people simplyhave never put their individual take on theworld into words.

When she’s writing a poem, she uses all

of her senses.“Not just to see, but to look; not to just

hear, but to listen. That’s what my poetry isabout, and that’s what I admire in otherpoets,” said Watson, author of “Eyes Open,Listening.”

Poetry offers everyone a chance for self-expression.

“It’s all about sharing what we think andhow we’re reacting in life,” Watson said.

That’s one of the reasons Watson is in-volved in an effort to encourage youngpoets. She coordinates the young poet’scontest, which is affiliated with the FloridaState Poets Association.

The contest is open for middle and highschool students throughout Florida. Theycan be home-schooled or can attend privateor public schools. The aim is to encouragethe reading and writing of poetry.

“It’s amazing how many young people

Town hall revealsVA problems hittingclose to homeBy Michael [email protected]

Whether it’s overburdened, improperlyrun, or a combination of the two, veteransare struggling to get the health care theyneed from clinics and hospitals run by theU.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

The issue has led to the resignation ofthe department’s longest-serving secretary,Eric Shinseki, and has been fodder in politi-cal campaign ads and debates.

In his seat as vice chair of the HouseCommittee on Veterans Affairs, U.S. Rep. GusBilirakis, has earned national media attentionin recent months as he digs into what’scausing delays at VA-run medical centers,and what can be done to fix it. The PalmHarbor Republican has since opened thedoor to hear from veterans themselves, invit-ing them to a town hall meeting June 5 inNew Port Richey to find out other strugglesfacing those who have returned home from MICHAEL HINMAN/STAFF PHOTO

It’s a wooden cabinet with several draw-ers, the index cards inside reminiscent ofthe kind used when libraries still had cardcatalogs.

But this cabinet doesn’t hold cardstelling visitors where to find books. Instead,it holds cards separating packages of seeds.

These aren’t just any seeds, however.They’re called heirloom seeds, and some ofthem had their start back in the 1800s, saidAra McLeod, who works at MorningstarFishermen, a business in Dade City that pro-motes sustainable living.

Unlike most seeds that are planted intoday’s fields and gardens, these heirloomseeds have not been genetically altered.Instead, they have been saved and passedalong for generations.

And now, through MorningstarFishermen’s new seed library, they are avail-able to seed library members for free.

There is a catch. Those joining the seedlibrary must agree to use only organic fertil-izer on the vegetables and flowers theygrow with these seeds. And they are askedto let some of their plants go to seed, sothey can help to restock the seed library.

McLeod, who oversees the seed library, isthrilled that she’s leading this new venture,which aims to help people produce theirown food.

“Here at Morningstar, we are about teach-ing people about sustainability,” McLeod said.

The company, locatedat 3336 Old St. Joe Road,has been teaching peo-ple about aquaponics foryears. Aquaponics is es-sentially the marriagebetween hydroponicsand aquaculture, allow-ing people to raise fish,veggies and plants at thesame time.

It decided to branchout to help people be-come sustainable inother ways, too.

“We wanted to start aseed library here to helpour community to haveaccess to good, qualityfood,” McLeod said. “It’sreally, really importantfor communities to haveaccess to good seeds.With it being free, it real-ly doesn’t matter whatyour economic status is.”

So far, fewer than adozen people havesigned up for the seed li-brary. But McLeod’senthusiasm for the pro-gram has not dimmed.

“We have to startsomewhere,” she said,clearly passionate about the project. “Seedsare life. The soil is life. Without good quality

seeds, our food is not of good quality, so,when we eat it, it doesn’t sustain our bodies.”

She estimates about 200 varieties ofseeds in the library, mostly donated by SeedSavers Exchange, Baker Creek Seeds andsome local families.

When people come to MorningstarFishermen’s shop, they can look throughthe cabinet drawers to choose seeds.

“All of the drawers are divided out intofamilies. In gardening, there’s nine differentfamilies,” McLeod explained. “In each family,you have the different types of vegetables orflowers.

“You just see what type of plant youwant to grow. You open the drawer and youthumb through it. You can see the bean thatyou want to grow. There’s a little packet be-hind it. There’s the growing information onthe back of it.”

Once they find their packet, they bring itup to a desk, fill out a form, and head hometo start planting.

“You grow it. Save some of the seeds foryourself and some for the library and bringthem back,” McLeod said.

Some people may have no earthly ideahow to begin, but there are books, online in-formation and low-cost classes that canhelp, she said.

Nobody should feel intimidated.“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know any-

thing,” McLeod said. “The only thing that youneed to start is a desire.”

To find out more about the seed library,email [email protected], visitMorningstarFishermen.org, or call McLeodat (352) 523-2722.

Pasco honors a hero that should never be forgotten

What’s in a name, anyway? There are names for buildingsand locations we never use

when referring to them. Like, we might say“the barber shop on 41,” or “the gas stationnear Collier Parkway,” without even thinkingabout the official name.

Sometimes a place has a common namedifferent than its actual name. Ever been tothe Lutz Dog Park? It’s actually namedCarolyn Meeker Park.

Sometimes we don’t get the name exact-ly right. But sometimes we should.

There’s a veterans’ nursing home atEhren Cutoff and Parkway Boulevard. Youmight know that already, and you might sim-ply call it “the veterans’ nursing home” orsomething similar. Not out of disrespect toveterans or anything. Maybe you just don’tknow the full name and have had no reasonto go there.

So let me introduce you to theBaldomero Lopez State Veterans NursingHome at 6919 Parkway Blvd., named inhonor of a local hero whose name is worthremembering.

“Baldomero” sounds like an unusualname, unless you were a Spanish kid grow-ing up in Ybor City in the 1930s. Aftergraduating high school, Lopez joined theU.S. Navy, but was eventually commissionedin the U.S. Marine Corps.

He became a platoon commander, servedin China, and came back to the UnitedStates. But when the Korean War started,

Lopez went there as an officer.At the Battle of Inchon, an important mil-

itary victory that led to the recapture of theSouth Korean capital of Seoul, Lopez wasone of about 40,000 men serving under thedirection of Gen. Douglas MacArthur. As afirst lieutenant, he led the 3rd Platoon,Company A, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines overthe seawall on Red Beach.

And in the military, “led” really means“led.” It’s not a situation where you just sitand watch other people do things. In fact,there’s an iconic photo of Lopez literallyleading his men over the wall and into bat-tle on Sept. 15, 1950.

If you look at that photo, study it for amoment. It’s the kind of scene that moviestry to recreate but never get quite right. Verymoving.

So here’s a recap of the rest of his life,which ended on that beach just a few min-utes later. Lopez pulled the pin on a grenadeto hurl at the enemy, but was hit with ma-chine-gun fire to his right shoulder andchest before he could throw it. The grenadedropped from his hand, and he tried to re-trieve it. Realizing he was too hurt to graspit, he tucked the grenade under his body sohe could absorb the full impact and protecthis fellow soldiers.

Lopez saved more than 30 lives by sacri-ficing his own. He was just 25 years old.

The following year his parents acceptedhis posthumous Medal of Honor fromPresident Harry Truman. He also earned aPurple Heart, a China Service Medal, a WorldWar II Victory Medal, a National DefenseService Medal, a United Nations ServiceMedal, a Presidential Unit Citation with onebronze star, and a Korean Service Medalwith two bronze stars.

His body was laid to rest at CentroAsturiano Memorial Park Cemetery, which isless than 30 miles from Land O’ Lakes.

Today, there are a number of thingsnamed in Lopez’ honor: An elementary

school, a swimming pool, a navy cargo ship.The Armed Forces History Museum in Largohas a special exhibit dedicated to him (Gosee it. It’s not that far, really).

And there’s a certain veterans nursinghome in Land O’ Lakes which bears hisname, too.

Now, it would be silly if we referred toeverything by its complete name. If yourchild is a junior at Steinbrenner, you would-n’t tell someone “she’s a junior at George M.Steinbrenner High School,” would you? Ofcourse not. You’d say she goes toSteinbrenner, and people will know whatyou meant.

Just for convenience, we give locations anickname, shorten a name or refer to themgenerically.

But sometimes it’s worth the extra effortto add a little more to it. That veterans nurs-ing home is named in honor of BaldomeroLopez, and he’s a proud part of Tampa Bay’shistory and a guy worth remembering. Eventhough he died 7,500 miles away more thansix decades ago, it’s fitting that his name liveson in a facility that cares for veterans today.

By the way, I toured the nursing homeand it’s a very nice facility. They can alwaysuse volunteers, too. If you have a little sparetime, give them a call at (813) 558-5000.

LIBRARIES New stalemate could kill gas tax increase yet againBy Michael [email protected]

Getting new county road projects under-way, as well as maintaining the ones alreadybuilt, is likely going to require an additional$8 million this coming year. But a new battleon exactly how to raise that money has puttwo Pasco County commissioners on oppo-site sides of the debate.

Henry Wilson is continuing a controver-sial stance he took last year, saying he won’tsupport raising the local gas tax, and insteadwants to explore other revenue sources in-cluding an increase in property taxes.

Ted Schrader, however, has no interest inraising property taxes, and says a 5-cent in-crease in gas taxes will shift the cost ofmaintaining the roads to the people whoare using them, and in most cases wouldn’teven be passed on to the consumer anyway.

It’s a battle where Wilson has an early ad-vantage, not because of support from othercommissioners, but from a caveat that anygas tax increase requires the approval offour of the five commissioners, while aproperty tax increase of this size would onlyrequire a yes vote from three.

“People buy gas periodically, but whenthey get their (property) tax bill, they re-member that,” Schrader said during a recentmeeting at the Historic Dade CityCourthouse, interrupted several times fromquick power blackouts caused by a thunder-storm outside. “When you startincrementally adding on all these differentassessments, they are going to rememberthat.”

Wilson says the county needs to increaserevenue by $8 million, but “not via the gastax.”

The debate erupted at the meeting afterCounty Administrator Michele Baker tried tolock down how much commissioners wereplanning to spend on roads this year. The ad-ditional amount of revenue needed ranged

from $5 million to $8 million, with thelower number possibly forcing some futureroad building projects to be delayed or can-celled altogether.

Earlier in the meeting, county budgetmanager Dan Risola told commissioners thateven if the gas tax increase was passed on toconsumers, it would equate to $7.50 annuallyfor every penny. A 5-cent increase wouldmean an additional $37.50 annually, or $1.56more per fill-up on a typical car that’s fueledup twice monthly.

The recommendation to use the full 5cents also came from a group of communityleaders led by Heidt Design president PatrickGassaway.

“We like user fees for things like trans-portation,” he said. “It puts the burden whereit should be.

“To tell elected officials that their bestroute is to increase taxes is, of course, some-thing we recognize as a difficult thing for youto do. It is a lot like saving for college, but it isa great investment, and we all benefit fromit.”

Using all 5 cents available to the county ingas taxes could have other positive effects aswell, Gassaway said. If the county looks to getstate or federal funding for projects, officialscan show they’ve done everything they canlocally to raise money by using the toolsavailable to them.

Gas stations are not adept to raisingprices just because of increases in taxes be-cause they are focused on selling a specificnumber of gallons, Baker said.

“It would translate to the folks that werebuying beer and Slurpees and cigarettes,” shesaid. “It’s inside the convenience store wherethey truly make the profits.”

Also not fully convinced about looking ata full gas tax was Commissioner JackMariano, but his position has shifted a bitfrom last year when he voted against any gastax increase.

“It is a very complex subject,” he said.“Developers are going to get mad at us fornot using the gas tax, and then you look atthe regular people who is going to pay thetax.”

Mariano, like fellow commissioners PatMulieri and Kathryn Starkey, are willing to ex-plore a mix of gas and property tax increasesto hit the $8 million mark, although Mulierihas indicated she would go a full 5 cents ingas tax if needed.

Schrader, however, would have to con-vince both Mariano and Starkey to raise thegas tax to 5 cents to get the four votes need-ed. But Mariano has hinted in the past that helikely wouldn’t go higher than a 2-cent in-crease at the pump.

If Schrader refuses to vote in favor of anygas tax increase below 5 cents, commission-ers would not have enough votes to raise thegas tax at all. That would mean looking al-most exclusively at a property tax increase.

“We have to stop fighting one another,”Mulieri said. “This has been a good board, butit deteriorated two weeks ago. I see thatwind blowing, and nobody is going tochange their mind right now.”

The monument is designed to recognizethose who served in the armed forces, aswell as those who supported the war effortfrom home.

“It’s really an honor and a privilege torepresent this county,” Bilirakis said. “We allcare so much, and I appreciate that verymuch.”

The memorial is located at 3737Southport Springs Parkway in Zephyrhills.


There has always been a strong connec-tion between Zephyrhills and veterans whohave served their country, dating right backto when its first cornerstone was laid as aretirement community for aging Civil Warveterans.

The tradition of honoring the men andwomen who served continues to this day,now in Southport Springs off Chancey Roadjust outside Zephyrhills, where veterans— including more than 200 who live in thecommunity itself — were honored with anew memorial.

Summer rains held off just long enoughJune 14 for local dignitaries and more than

300 people to dedicate the memorial, locat-ed next to Southport Springs’ clubhouse,that recognize the people who served bothabroad and even at home over a century’sworth of conflicts.

“Thank you for your sacrifice,” said U.S.Rep. Gus Bilirakis, R-Palm Harbor, who at-tended the dedication ceremony. “We oweyou so very much, our true American he-roes.”

The memorial includes six service flagsrepresenting various branches of the mili-tary, as well as the American flag, and asecond flag remembering prisoners of war.It is supported by a large brick wall withtwo benches, as well as flowerbeds to repre-sent the red stripes on the nation’s flag.

takes to solve this problem,” Bilirakis said.“We must make sure that our veterans haveaccess to a broad range of services thatmeet their specific needs,” he said.

Last month, Bilirakis co-authored a letterwith U.S. Rep. David Jolly, R-Indian Shores, tothen-Secretary Shinseki asking him tochange internal policies at the VA to allowveterans easier access to programs like theNon-VA Care Coordination program thatwould allow veterans to seek subsidizedhealth care from medical providers outsideof the VA system.

Veterans who attended the recent townhall expressed some specific concerns withtypes of service they’ve received over theyears — some dating back more than adecade — but many agreed problems aretypically focused on routine care outside ofthe emergency room.

“The system has been broke for a longtime, since I got out of the service in 1973,”said Michael O’Dell, who also is president ofthe Hillsborough County Veterans Council.The care he receives at the James A. HaleyVA hospital near the University of SouthFlorida’s main campus has always beengood, as long as it’s been an emergency.

“This last time has not been an emer-gency, and they’ve been screwing aroundwith my knees,” O’ Dell said. “When the doc-tors decided that I can’t take the painanymore, they said it would take three orfour months (for the surgery). Now with allthis stuff going on (the controversy), they

miraculously told me that they can operatein three weeks.”

One veteran, Peter Spatz, said he livesacross the street from a VA medical center,and while he has had no problems with thecare he receives once he gets there, wherehe really struggles is just trying to get in thefront door.

“When I was hearing on the news all theproblems with the VA, I didn’t really believeit,” he said. “I really felt that facility just ranlike a Swiss watch, and I never had a singleissue.”

However, Spatz has a condition that re-quires treatment, and he couldn’t see adoctor because they kept rescheduling him.He finally decided to reach out to the pa-tient advocate line, but said no one wasavailable to take his call.

“I was so frustrated, I didn’t know whatto do,” Spatz said. “If you have a question youneed answered, or a problem resolved onthe phone, the fact that they have the audac-ity to (not man the lines) is just beyondbelief. Something has to change on that.”

Bilirakis has been a sponsor of H.R. 4810,which passed the U.S. House last weekunanimously, and has been sent to the U.S.Senate. If passed, the resolution would ex-pand access to health care and othermedical facilities for veterans outside of theVA system. It also requires the VA to conductan independent investigation of its opera-tions and create a plan of action to correctthem within 120 days.

The Senate passed its own bill, whichlawmakers say is similar to H.R. 4810, andboth sides believe they can come togetherto finalize a bill to present to PresidentBarack Obama.

Pasco typically requires a temporary signpermit and a limit for how long they can bedisplayed. However, the signs usually ad-dressed in that ordinance have beentemporary banners, which are typically se-cured on all sides. Feather signs have beenvirtually overlooked by the ordinance, andcounty officials are suggesting implement-ing an outright ban on those types of signs.

“Feather banners have two key issues,

one being the visual impact,” said RebeccaStonefield of the county’s planning and de-velopment department. “There are alsogeneral safety concerns associated withthem. If they are not anchored appropriate-ly, they could fly out and become a hazard.”

The planning and development depart-ment recommended not including thefeather signs with other temporary signs thecounty allows. However, that could createsome legal problems for the county in howa court might differentiate between thetypes of signs.

“Do you believe that it’s defensible, to at-tempt to defend in court, the difference

are interested in it. Unfortunately, a lot ofteachers really don’t have time to even giveout the rules,” said Watson, adding she un-derstands how busy teachers are becauseshe worked in schools for several years.

But there are teachers who work withtheir students on poetry and submit theirstudents’ work for the contest.

“A lot of teachers tell me that it’s verytherapeutic (for students). Many of theteachers who are sending me work aresending me work from kids who are trou-bled,” Watson said. “They’re writing aboutdeath. They’re writing about divorce. They’rewriting about relationships that break up.These are very young kids.”

Watson thinks that many young peopleare interested in poetry, but may be un-aware of the state contest, which offers cashprizes and the chance to be published in ananthology.

“Young people are very much into per-formance poetry now. Rap is poetry,” she said.

Last year, the contest drew about 760 en-tries. Not a single one of those entries camefrom Pasco County, however, Watson said,noting she hopes that will change this year.

Watson will circulate the informationabout this year’s youth poetry contest in lateAugust or early September. Contest rulesalso will be posted online atFloridaStatePoetsAssociation.org.

between a banner and a feather banner?”Commissioner Ted Schrader asked. “I see itas being the same thing.”

County attorney Jeffrey Steinsnyder dis-agreed, however.

“They are two different styles of advertis-ing, and there is a physical difference,” hesaid. “It’s easy to define.”

Pasco is a community with hundreds ofnew homes under construction, many ingrowing communities. The builders dependon attracting attention from the main road,especially since their product might not beas apparent because it is hidden inside aneighborhood, Doerfel said.

“The reason that you see as many feathersigns as you do is that it is the last option thatwe have to be compliant with the sign ordi-nance,” Doerfel said, referring to the quantityand time limits for temporary banners. “Wehave to be able to attract people to our com-munities, and most of these communities arenot even on the GPS. Most of the people arefinding model centers through signs.”

Mike Southward, the local division presi-dent of Beazer Homes, said unlike standardretailers, homebuilders typically don’t jumponto the radar of someone looking for anew house until after they are inside a

neighborhood they want to move to. “If you look into the buyer’s psyche, they

do a lot of research when buying a home,”he said. “They look for things like schoolsand shopping and lifestyle, and they will goand drive around.”

It’s not until they start driving the area thatthey start looking for builders and communi-ties, and that’s where having good signagehelps get their attention, Southward said.

“If we don’t have an opportunity to di-rect them into our communities, we lost anopportunity to gain a customer,” he said.

How the county handles signs in thenear future is something the commissionshould explore slowly and deliberately,Commissioner Pat Mulieri said.

“We receive tons of email, and we’repushing the idea that we want to be pre-mier,” she said. “We don’t want to be shoddylooking, but we also want business, who arealso applauding the fact that now we havepeople buying houses. I don’t know whatthe problem would be to put this off for amonth or six weeks to get other ideas andwork from there.”

The commission will look at a potentialrevision of the temporary sign ordinanceagain at its July 22 meeting.

COURTESY OF CINDY PERKINSWhen Chiropractor Cindy Perkins isn’t treating her patients at the Back in Health WellnessCenter, she’s vying for the ceremonial title of Lutz Guv’na.


Chiropractor Cindy Perkins hails fromBrowns Valley, Minnesota, a city of about800 people. And perhaps for that reason, shefeels right at home in Lutz.

“The Lutz area drew me in because it’s anice area,” she said. “It still kind of has thatsmall-town feel, but you still have a lot of ac-cessibility to city things. And it’s a nice placeto raise a family.”

Perkins has a son, Lyndon, 7, who wasn’tborn when Perkins first moved to Florida.That happened a decade ago, and she hasspent the past five years in Lutz.

Her practice, Back in Health WellnessCenter, 18942 N. Dale Mabry Highway, Suite102, is located in Lutz as well. And if all goeswell during her campaign, she hopes to bethe next Lutz Guv’na.

The ceremonial title is given to the can-didate who raises the most money forcharity during the “campaign,” which con-cludes over the Fourth of July weekend.Armed with a number of fundraisers,Perkins hopes to raise the biggest total andcome away with the title. But either way, shewants to be part of an effort to help area or-ganizations.

The money raised by all the Guv’na can-didates goes to local groups.

“It really appeals to me that the moneythat’s raised through the Guv’na campaigngoes back to local schools or local nonprof-its or the library,” Perkins said.

Helping charities already is part of herregular regimen. Perkins has been a teamcaptain and served on the executive plan-ning committee for Carrollwood Relay forLife benefiting the American Cancer Society.She also participated as the chiropractor forthe sports medicine team at the Susan G.Komen 3-Day Walk in St. Petersburg, a 60-mile trek to raise funds and awareness forbreast cancer.

Aside from chiropractic services, Perkins’practice also provides massage therapy, ex-ercise rehabilitation and acupuncture. Sheperforms most of the services herself, and

said she enjoys working closely with differ-ent patients, treating a variety of issues andproviding them with education regardinghow to live healthier and resume enjoyableactivities.

And while that education often includesspecific and detailed treatments, the Guv’nahopeful has a quick tip regarding backhealth: Don’t stay in that chair too long.

“Our bodies weren’t designed to be sit-ting for four, six, eight hours a day, and itleads to bad things to your neck and foryour back,” Perkins explained. “Get up andmove around and stretch just a little bitevery hour or two.”

Perkins has decided to be active when itcomes to her campaign, with plenty ofevents designed to draw in the dollars. Shehas a Bunco event scheduled for June 13, aquarter auction on June 21 and a potentialbowling event with the other candidates inthe works as well.

In addition, Perkins is having a drawingfor a one-year massage membership and of-fers “flamingo flocking,” where a personcan have a friend’s yard decorated withlawn flamingoes for a donation. The recipi-ent can then donate to have them removedand order their own flocking for someoneelse.

But even though she’s going all out totake the title, Perkins said she’s built a strongcamaraderie with the other candidates,since they’re all active participants in thecommunity and share a common goal ofraising funds for needy local causes.

“It’s all in good fun. We’re all doing it forthe same reason, to try and raise money forthe community and try to make a differencein the community,” she said.

REMSBERG QUALIFIES, PICKS UP ENDORSEMENT

Erika Remsberg, a Land O’ Lakes residentseeking to replace the retiring Pasco Countycommissioner Pat Mulieri, has picked up anendorsement from the West Central FloridaFederation of Labor.

That endorsement came soon after sheofficially qualified as the only Democraticcandidate for the seat. Remsberg says her ex-

perience as a social worker has provided ex-tensive knowledge of the problems sufferedby families in the community.

“I seek to provide a voice for our com-munity’s working families on thecommission,” Remsberg said in a release. “Myperspective as a working mom and commu-nity advocate puts me in a unique positionto represent the voice of the people wholive in Pasco.”

Remsberg has raised just $553 so far inher campaign, including nothing in May.Unless any other Democrats enter the race,she will not have a primary, and will face offagainst the winner of the Republican pri-mary that currently involves former stateRep. Ken Littlefield, entrepreneur MikeMoore and financial analyst Bob Robertson.

Moore has raised more than all his com-petitors — more than $80,500 — including$7,650 in May. His top donors include RoyalInvestments and SB General Partners, bothoperating from the same location in Tampa,each writing $1,000 checks.

Robertson raised $953 in May, bringinghis total to just under $12,400. However,$600 of the money raised came from out-side Florida, most of it through a $500donation from a case manager inPennsylvania.

Littlefield picked up $600 in May, $100 of

it from a Trinity donor, and the rest as a loanto himself. Littlefield has now loaned hiscampaign $1,500.

CHAMBERS GET TOGETHER TO HOST FORUMS

The Greater Dade City Chamber ofCommerce and the Greater ZephyrhillsChamber of Commerce will host two fo-rums to introduce members to candidatesfacing off in primary and general elections.

The first forum takes place Aug. 4 begin-ning at 7 p.m., at East Pasco AdventistAcademy, 38434 Centennial Road in DadeCity. That event will include candidates rang-ing from the state House to the MosquitoControl Board.

The second event will be Oct. 20 begin-ning at 7 p.m., in the same location, onceagain including the same races.

The chambers will provide two modera-tors to ask questions. Candidates also willhave a chance to set up tables and meet vot-ers beginning each night at 6 p.m.

WILSON EXPERIENCES COUNTYWORK FIRST-HAND

Pasco County commissioner HenryWilson, who is defending his seat against po-litical newcomer Mike Wells Jr., spent 24hours shadowing fire rescue workers atPasco Fire Station No. 11.

“It was an eye-opening experience,”Wilson said, in a release.

It’s all part of Wilson’s work since beingelected in 2010 to experience different of-fices first-hand.

“Working in each of the departments hasbeen very beneficial,” he said. “I believe ithas helped me make a more informed deci-sion when it comes budget time.”

Wilson, however, is well behind Wellswhen it comes to fundraising. Wilson hadhis best month since January when heraised $4,715 in May. His biggest donorswere real estate-related companies whereNISSI Inc., Trinity Club Apartments and FortyNine Acres of Tarpon Springs each donated$1,000.

Wells, however, topped his first bigmonth of campaign donations with a biggerone. The son of Pasco County property ap-praiser Mike Wells Sr., picked up just under$25,000 in May, bringing his two-monthcampaign war chest to almost $45,600.

Wells received a number of $1,000checks from developers as well, includingForty Nine Acres, NISSI and Trinity ClubApartments. Nearly $7,000 of his donationscame from outside Pasco County, however.

Unless a Democrat or other type of can-didate enters the race, Wells’ and Wilson’srace could be decided in an open primaryAug. 26.

CLAY SHOOT FOR MIKE MOOREMike Moore is looking to raise more

money for his Pasco County Commissioncampaign with a clay shoot June 21.

It will take place at Tampa Bay SportingClays, 10514 Ehren Cutoff in Land O’ Lakes,with registration beginning at 8:30 a.m. Thecost would be $125 per person, or $500 perteam of four. All payments would be consid-ered political donations.

How often should I have my teeth cleaned and checked by my dentist?

On average seeing a dentist twice a year is recommended for most of us.People with a high risk of dental disease might need to be seen more frequently(every 3-4 months).

This risk group includes: • Smokers• Diabetics• People with a current history of gum or periodontal disease• People with a weak immune response to bacterial infections• People who tend to get more cavities or buildup of plaque on their

Gov. Rick Scott signed 94 more bills intolaw last week, including one from state Rep.Dan Raulerson, R-Plant City, that has somegovernment observers applauding.

H.B. 1385 shifts the management of in-spectors general from individual departmentheads to the chief inspector general.

Inspectors general are typically responsi-ble for maintaining the accountability,efficiency and integrity in a government de-partment. However, many lawmakers saidthe positions were easy to influence, sinceeach inspector general’s boss was the headof the department, and made it difficult toimplement needed changes.

Integrity Florida, a nonpartisan govern-ment watchdog group, championed the bill.

“Inspectors general are the public’s watch-dogs within state government, but they needmore independence to do their jobs effective-ly,” Integrity Florida executive director DanKrassner said, in a release. “This law should re-duce the influence of state agency heads overthe internal government watchdogs whoaudit and investigate their agencies.”

Before the new law, state agency headscould appoint and remove their own in-

spectors general, Krassner said, which creat-ed built-in conflicts of interest.

“Agency heads and their deputies shouldnot be able to prevent an inspector generalfrom conducting an audit or investigation,”he added.

Other bills recently signed into law fromlocal lawmakers were:

S.B. 272 – WATER UTILITIESIntroduced by state Sen. Wilton Simpson,

R-Trilby, this law now gives water customersthe right to petition the Florida PublicService Commission if they feel their waterquality is unsatisfactory.

Someone wanting to start a petitionwould have to first let the commissionknow of their complaint, and then wait 10days for instructions. After that, the cus-tomer has 90 days to collect signatures from65 percent of the customers in the affectedarea, specifically outlining the problemsthey have with the water.

Depending on the outcome with thecommission, a water utility would then haveto meet with the customers and outline im-mediate ways to resolve the problems. If theutility doesn’t work to correct the issues, itcould be subject to fines, according to a staffanalysis of the bill.

This bill passed the Senate 37-0 and theHouse 99-15 in late April.

S.B. 536 – RECLAIMED WATERAlso introduced by Simpson, this law re-

quires the Florida Department ofEnvironmental Protection, the FloridaDepartment of Agriculture and ConsumerServices, and the five water managementdistricts — including the Southwest FloridaWater Management District — to conduct astudy and submit a report by the end ofnext year on how to expand the use of re-claimed water in the state.

It passed both the House and Senateunanimously in April.

S.B. 1070 – FUEL TERMINALSIntroduced by Simpson, this law would

prevent local governments from outlawingexisting fuel terminals.

Terminals, according to a staff analysis ofthe bill, are typically storage and distributionfacilities that serve as nodes to deliver fuelsthroughout the region. Florida has 42 activefuel terminals, with 11 of them in the TampaBay area. The Port of Tampa alone receivesapproximately 500 petroleum ships a year,and 2.4 billion gallons of fuel.

The law also allows fuel terminals that were

damaged or destroyed by natural disaster orother catastrophe to be rebuilt to their previouscondition, whether a local government says theyare conforming or not to its code of ordinances.

It passed the Senate 36-0, and the House112-5 in April.

S.B. 1142 – TICKET SALESFirst introduced by state Sen. Tom Lee, R-

Brandon, this new law increases thecriminal penalties for counterfeit tickets and“multi-use tickets” at theme parks, in manycases upgrading the crime from a misde-meanor to a felony for repeat offenders.

It’s currently a first-degree misdemeanorto counterfeit, forge, alter or possess anyticket with the intention to defraud a facili-ty, according to a Senate analysis of the bill.However, a second violation — or any viola-tion that involves 10 or more tickets— would elevate the charge from a misde-meanor to a third-degree felony.

Multi-use tickets can’t be transferred ifpart of the ticket has already been used.Penalties here have been increased from asecond-degree to first-degree misdemeanorfor the first offense, and a third-degreefelony for later offenses.

The legislation passed both the Houseand Senate unanimously.

CHECKTHIS OUT


Teen coach is all business on football gridironBy Michael [email protected]

On a rather hot day earlier this month,Zachary Cooper attended a football camp atLutz Chiefs Stadium.

The 16-year-old did some conditioning,went through drills, and even participatedin a scrimmage. Later, Cooper said it was aworthwhile event and the participants hada good time.

But he wasn’t there to learn. He wasthere to teach. It was his camp, and he wasthe coach.

“I felt it went fantastic. The coaches reallycame out and they worked their butts off,”Cooper said. “We definitely had some kidsthat showed their talent and just showedthat they are dedicated, and that’s what mat-ters most is dedication. If you’re notdedicated you probably can’t play thesport.”

With some Steinbrenner High Schoolfootball players to assist him, Cooper ledaround 50 middle school-aged attendeesthrough a free two-hour camp, teachingthem football basics as well as specific skillsaccording to their position.

Cooper is already a recognized leader,serving as head coach for Martinez MiddleSchool and an assistant coach for the juniorvarsity team at Steinbrenner. He’s alsocoached for the youth football Lutz Chiefsand been in touch with the Arena FootballLeague’s Tampa Bay Storm about participat-ing with their staff.

And Cooper is in discussions with a col-lege in Georgia to continue his education —and his coaching career — once he gradu-ates high school in 2015.

He might still be a couple of years awayfrom voting, but Cooper’s already an experi-enced football coach who loves teachingthe game.

“Being a coach, I really enjoy helping thekids out,” he said.

Cooper acknowledges it might soundstrange to hear a teenager talk about “thekids,” especially considering he sometimescoaches athletes who are older than he is.But when teaching middle school players,he believes his age is an advantage.

Instead of having decades separate them,Cooper is just a few years older than theyare, so the players relate to him and commu-nicate with him easily. And while the olderplayers might be skeptical at first, after ameeting or two, they’re on board as well.

“What I try and do is prove that I knowwhat I’m doing and help these guys,”Cooper said. “After that, it’s full-on respect.”

That respect comes from the effortCooper puts into his work. If he’s not guid-ing players on the field, he’s reviewing game

film, or designing his own plays. Eventhough most of his coaching is for the de-fensive side of the ball, he has an offensivemind for the game as well. Cooper playedoffensive line as recently as his sophomoreyear.

That effort has paid off with players likeSteinbrenner wide receiver FernandoMallicote. The soon-to-be sophomore haslearned a lot from Cooper from his time onthe Steinbrenner junior varsity squad andthe Chiefs.

Mallicote has made the jump to varsityfor the fall campaign. Cooper played an in-strumental role in helping him improve hisgame, he said.

“He cares,” Mallicote said. “He doesn’t justcoach. He knows what the players are capa-ble of.”

Mallicote helped Cooper with the foot-ball camp and said he enjoyed working withyounger players, and even learned a fewthings himself at the event.

While he’s become friends with Cooper,Mallicote said that doesn’t mean anythingwhen they take the field. The young coachwill yell with the best of them, trying towring the most out of his team on gameday.

In fact, Cooper is as excited to partici-pate now as he was when he was wearing auniform.

“I’m probably just as hyped if not more,”he said. “When referees are making thosebad calls like they always do, I’m definitelythe first one out there to give them thewhat for.

“When my guys score, you’ll see mejumping up and down, hugging the guysjust like I would if I was padded up.”

Cooper might still be padded up if notfor a concussion that sidelined him earlier inhis career. Coupled with other injuries,Cooper decided that playing the game was-n’t in his future and figured he’d givecoaching a try. He didn’t expect to like it asmuch as he does, but coaching activitiesnow dominate most of his time.

Due to the success of his camp on June7, he wants to schedule another football-fo-cused event in the future as well.

When he’s not in school or focused onhis sideline duties, Cooper is producing the“Two Cents Radio Show,” a sports-related,Internet-based audio program. He also han-dles commentary for local wrestling shows,which are then streamed on the Internet.

But coaching is never far from his mind,and it’s something he expects will be a partof him for a long time to come.

“I tell my kids, I plan on doing it until my60s or 70s,” Cooper said.

For more information about Cooper’s showor football camps, visit 2CentsSports.com.

MICHAEL MURILLO/STAFF PHOTOZachary Cooper is a 16-year-old coach who takes his work seriously. He’s already coachedat the youth football, middle school and high school levels, and has college and arena foot-ball in his sights.

Here’s Why CustomersRecommend Us To Neighbors,

Family and Friends

Who is the best A/C manufacturer?Surprising to many, the top 20 brands are made by just eight manufacturers.There is almost no difference in quality and performance between same-levelunits made by Carrier, Trane, Rheem, Lennox, Amana, Bryant or Goodman.

All units come in a box with a compressor, coil and condenser. It’s the installa-tion team who assembles the unit at your home who makes the difference.HVAC professionals agree that proper installation and maintenance are moreimportant to the performance of an A/C system, than the unit itself.

100% Satisfaction Guarantee*We guarantee 100% satisfaction with equipment operations. We will correctany problem within the first 180 days of installation, and if you are still not satisfied, will remove the system and refund your money in full.*applies to elite systems only
