West End costly

Does County Commissioner Juan Zapata want to make a name for himself?

If he wants to live in West End have him move to Grand Bahama island. That’s only 25 minutes by air. Apparently, he just wants to spend taxpayer money. He tried and failed to have taxpayers pay over $30,000 for his college class.

Now he has won in his efforts to have signs changed to the new name at another cost to taxpayers.

Does he realize how much this will cost businesses in West Kendall to change their addresses and letterheads on their correspondence?
