Manatee County to cover up to $60,000 in legal fees for open records lawsuit

Manatee County commissioners unanimously agreed Tuesday to pay up to $60,000 in legal fees associated with a civil lawsuit alleging commissioners failed to produce public records tied to the firing of former County Administrator Cheri Coryea. County Attorney Will Clague recommended commissioners vote in favor of covering the costs, citing concern that if they did not, the county could set a precedent inviting future legal challenges to controversial decisions simply to put financial pressure on elected officials. The costs, estimated at a total of $55,900, would cover settlement payments from commissioners Kevin Van Ostenbridge and James Satcher to area paralegal Michael Barfield, who filed the civil lawsuit in December. The majority of the costs cover legal fees charged by the private attorneys representing the two commissioners. 

Myakka woman running for Manatee County Commission in 2022 | East County

Myakka City resident Carol Felts sometimes thinks of government as a horse. The horse’s head represents elected officials, while the horse’s feet symbolize the people those officials represent. You can’t steer a horse in the right direction by controlling its head, Felts said. You have to control its feet. In other words, voters can’t determine the direction of their government by simply choosing the correct commissioners every Election Day. Instead, they must stay informed of the issues and make their voices heard month after month, year after year. They must always keep their feet moving. Felts has filed to run for Manatee County Commissioner in 2022 because she wants to teach people about the importance of local government and how to stay involved in it.
