Powerful Pen

My name is Fiorella and I live in The Dip
I'm tough as nails and I shoot from the hip
So don't chainsaw downmy trees without my say
Or there'll be bloody hell to pay
Fiorella can yell, and she can fight
But deadliest of all,  S H E  C A N  W R I T E 

And write is what she plans to do. The County is building a new bridge across the road alongside her property, as you know, and the contractor was not only incorrectly informed about how much clearing needed to be done, but was told to take down two mature oaks, even though the Georgetown County lawyer had signed a document for Fio saying no oaks would removed. Fio, of course, threw a fit, and the County has been trying to appease her ever since--but has also violated every promise it has made, even though Fio had written guarantees. The latest sin is that no provision has been made for the wood delivered to her to be cut into firewood, and you can bet that Fio will be sending off a hot letter to the County today--and maybe to the newspaper too.

Interestingly enough, now that Fio has a tale of her own about the Georgetown County Commissioners, she's been hearing other people's stories. Maybe it's time for a turnover in  local government Ah--Fio hasn't been in on a good political fight in years!
