More than a year ago, I released a statement in support of Deborah Barra's candidacy for State Attorney. That decision was based solely on what I knew at the time and within the framework of the candidates who were running/expected to run. Given those parameters, I have no regrets about my decision.   

Since that time, however, circumstances have changed dramatically. She has distanced herself from the work that has been done in the office over the past few years and as a result, is minimizing the hard work and diligent efforts made by so many of our team members. This is incredibly disappointing to me.

After reading campaign materials and watching interviews of all the candidates, here is my opinion on the race for Orange County Property Appraiser.

Friends,
Read my letter and the piss poor response from the very racist mayor of Ocoee, Mayor Rusty Johnson. Let me be clear, he did not question whether my son lived in Ocoee. He lied in council meeting and said he knew for a fact that my son did not live in Ocoee. He is trying to back track now because he knows his consequences are grave and will be costly. . .

Orange County Property Appraiser Rick Singh has questions after an appellate court ruling could release Walt Disney World and other hotel companies from paying millions in property taxes.

Singh's office on Thursday asked the Fifth District Court of Appeal to hold another hearing in a legal battle with Disney over the assessment of Disney's Yacht & Beach Club Resort, a luxury hotel with an annual property tax bill of more than $4 million.
