“Chief John Wayne told us at one of our breakfast meeting that we would not get charged the fire assessment fee, so why are we looking at a $4000 dollar bill from the fire department?”, said Jere Carrick President Lehigh Acres Kiwanis Club.
“I went to September 2014 fire board meeting and the fire board, Chief Wayne and their attorney all promised they would not charge my VFW, and what happened now they charged my VFW and how we supposed to pay this bill of $1500”, said Debbie Cunningham VFW Member
The fire board has charged the following fraternal and veterans organizations in Lehigh Acres:
Kiwanis $4000 Jaycess $1400 Knights of Columbus $1600 Masonic Lodge $4000 American Legion $2500 Eagles $1600 VFW $1500 Moose $2000
