I just recently received our 2019 Motor Vehicle Property Tax statement, and I was surprised to see an added tax for “school deficit”! We were taxed in 2018 for the Sumter County school deficit, and we were told it would be for one year only. I, and oth- ers that I have talked to, had not seen any report in your paper that Sumter County Council ap- proved a second collection in 2019 for the 2017 school deficit. I would like you to report on this issue, especially these four things: 1) when and why was this second collection approved; 2) who on the council approved it; 3) how many more years will this special tax be collected; and 4) how much was collected in 2018 for the deficit.

Charlie Barnes has made it another step closer to the Major Leagues. The former Sumter High School and Clemson standout pitcher was recently promoted to Pensacola, the Double-A af- filiate of the Minnesota Twins. The left-hander was called up from Advanced Single-A Fort Myers to Pensacola and has already made a start for the Blue Wahoos, who are a member of the Southern League. The 23-year-old pitched five shutout innings in Pensacola’s 6-3 loss to the Mississippi Braves on Thursday. Barnes allowed just four hits and one hit batter while striking out seven. Barnes was having an incon- sistent season for Fort Myers when he was promoted. He had a 3-2 win-loss record in eight starts, but owned a 6.51 earned run average. In 37 1/3 innings of work, Barnes al- lowed 42 hits while walking 20 against 35 strikeouts. Barnes, who was selected in the fourth round of the 2017 MLB draft by the Twins, spent the entire 2018 season with Fort Myers.
