Pasco County - Leap Into Excellence
In order to meet the challenges confronting Pasco County, including the fiscal realities created by Amendment 1 and the continuing economic downturn, we need to know where we want the County to be in the next several years. We need to identify the goals, priorities and programs our citizens want and need, so that we can focus our increasingly limited resources to meeting those goals. -- John Gallagher, Administrator
