Stockade Off Limits

A proposal to build a vocational high school on county land next to the fairgrounds has been met with resistance from County Mayor Sara Baxter, who is at odds with political activist Jorge Garrido over the project. Read more at BocaVibe.com.

Garrido had initially secured support from Sheriff Ric Bradshaw for his plan to use 11 acres of land set aside for the sheriff’s use as a site for the vocational school. However, when he later sought to revisit the agreement, Bradshaw withdrew his backing, leaving Garrido without a clear path forward.

Garrido has since blamed The post for its reporting on the issue, claiming that it was responsible for scuttling the plan. He has vowed to continue fighting for the project, despite the setback.
