The real people in charge of transportation planning in our region are the people at the CRTPA. Never heard of them? of course not, because the city tries to overshadow them, and created Blueprint to get around the formal process established by the state and the feds. This process is accepted all over the U.S. The CRTPA is one of like 27 MPOs around the state and is the official planning body for our region recognized by the state and the feds. The City wants you to think they do all of the planning and building here, and any bad projects are the FDOT’s fault. The CRTPA is getting ready to undertake a new long range plan update for transportation and we all should pay attention and provide input.

In reply to Tim. It was his first assistant when he was first elected. The assistant was not there very long and did not warrant such a large severance package which fueled speculation.

In reply to Hope. Who was his former assistant with the large severance package? I’m pretty sure he has had the same one for years . . . .

In reply to Mark.

The Tallahassee Democrat refuses to give progress reports on Nick’s performance at this Acaletics job.

The Tallahassee Democrat continues to not hold themselves accountable because they endorsed Nick Maddox. Nick was touting he was a CEO of a Seminoles Boosters fundraising venture which in fact it was defunct and never had raised $0.01.

Bob Gabordi was given this information and refused to report it much less investigate it. Be at the Tallahassee Democrat endorsed him.

Nick was elected and did nothing regarding the disjointed Dispatch Center where lives were lost because of poor performance and leadership, Tallahassee became the biggest crime rate city in Florida, our roads suck, Waste Pro service sucks, Nick Maddox never questioned Gary yordon and Scott Maddox’s dealings with Waste Pro, Nick’s blonde County Commission assistant was given an exorbitant severance package after only a few months, do we even need to go to his performance of the CRA that Nick chaired? We all know that story…

Somebody look into Nick Maddox lobbying for the worst test prep math program Acaletics at almost $35,000 per school. Thanks Nick and those in Leon County that promote test prep useless Acaletics. If you school uses test prep Acaletics, sorry.

Hey, maybe they’ll two-lane West Tennessee St. and ruin it too – like Gaines St.

Well this explains a lot regarding the state of our bad roads… Let’s hope he does as good on this as he did on the CRA.
