Where Did My Money Go?

Tampa, Florida - Limousine Owner Moshe Leib, who has to pay fees to the Hillsborough Public Transportation Commission in order to operate in the county, is concerned and upset about the agency's contingency fund.
The Public Transportation Commission regulates limousines, taxi cabs and tow trucks. The agency has boasted for years it has more than $800,000 in the fund, but now more than half is gone.
"Where did the money go?" Leib asks. That's a question everyone involved with the PTC is asking, because at this point the $400,000 has disappeared into thin air.
County Commissioner Kevin White, who is the chairman of the PTC, says it's amazing and it befuddles him. "I'd like to know where the money is, because it's the taxpayers' money and we take it very seriously."
Part of problem is that the agency was always evasive about the money. Former Director Greg Cox, who resigned before he was to be fired after series of 10 News investigations, could never explain the fund.

SEE MY POST ON CAESAR PADILLA BELOW: It seems the only thing holding up his full time appointment is that he lacks education. Kevin White still made sure he would be paid $100,000 a year for a political favor involving a member of his campaign staff. See link below.

My money is being used for this. I pay a fee every year to the commission so I can drive and they have levied fines of $20 because I did not have a collared shirt, $30 because I had on a Tampa Bay Bucs jersey on game day, $50 for unloading in a no standing zone when the only other place to unload was on railroad tracks. They are now considering to fine us if we have a dirty cab. This really makes me angry.

Last year Leib was instrumental in blocking a change in the PTC's Special Act that would of allowed out-of-state limos to swamp Tampa during Super Bowl. This year he blocked an attempt to change the law that would give the PTC unbridled power to enact any rules they want. Leib also has 3 lawsuits pending against this corrupt agency. Shit or get off the pot whiners!

Word is that a shitoad of unlicensed sedans will descend on Tampa for Super Bowl week. Taxi Driver's working Hotels & TIA need to be vigilant & look for these clowns running Town Cars (many with out-of-state plates)& either report them to the PTC or actually get into the theives faces & run them out of town.
