  • Surprise, no upcoming AC BOCC meetings mention their PLAN to fix any roads! But please be assured: AC road repair has begun on SW 85th Ave near the intersection with SW 75th ST! Of course, it is just a road patching job using sand! Sand! The return to gravel roads has begun! You got screwed AC voters and the A**les you voted into office are laughing their a$$es off at you! Forget about adding roads to handle all the new subdivisions being built!

    I told you back in October and November before Election Day, this group of criminals and public leeches wouldn’t follow up on any road maintenance promises they made!
