I had an issue with registering my car. After my vehicle was totaled I had the hardest time ever…read more in my life. I came to register the vehicle and get new plates for a used car that I just bought. I was not able to get new plates because I didn't have enough money at the time and they were about to close so I was running out of time. But Joshua was so very patient and helped me out. My mom was acting up and being intense, which made me upset and Joshua had to deal with all the madness. He was incredibly patient and tried his best to help me out. He was able to register my vehicle and set me up with appointments for the plates and other processes, I was really grateful for him. I noticed one of the coworkers next to him seemed annoyed by us, she didn't do anything at all to help him though and he seemed pretty new at this job and I wonder if this is how they roll here, he seemed like he could have used some help, but she seemed like ready to check out. Thank you Joshua you had the patient of a saint. Needless to say I have my plates and all documents needed, and thankfully it all went very well.

This place has on two separate occasions had me wait over an hour after the appointment time I had…read morepreviously made to be there. This place is definently disorganized to say the least and has a terrible way of prioritizing their patients. After this result is read, I will never come back here.

To see the schedule for the mobile van, go to: http://manatee.floridahealth.gov/programs-and-services/infectious-disease-services/aids/outreach-and-testing/index.html from the website: " We offer confidential, 15-minute HIV tests to the public in our clinic and through outreach activities in the community. We also offer other STD tests; our package screening tests for HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea and hepatitis A, B and C" The mobile van service offered by the Manatee County Health Department offers FREE and confidential HIV/STD testing for Manatee County residents. You can also pick up a discrete packet of free condoms while getting tested. Some results you will get on the spot, some you will have to call in to get 10-14 days after your initial visit. The van moves around throughout the county and you can visit at the various locations 5 days a week, no appointment necessary. Apparently Manatee County is brimming will all sorts of crotch cooties, so why not get tested if you've ever *ahem* partaken in the local, um, attractions. People lie, people lie more if they think there is a chance they might get laid out of the deal, so protect yourself and get tested and have the peace of mind of knowing for sure where you stand. Get your partner to come on down to the mobile van, too. Please note that the testing on the mobile unit is always free! You can also get tested at the brick and mortar location, but for some reason they may access a fee to you if you go to that location, which doesn't even make sense, so spare yourself the possibility of a charge and track 'em down in the mobile unit.

If you're not a Manatee County resident, they won't even let you register anything. They say it's listed on the website, but I didn't see it anywhere, not online or on the intercom. If you don't have an appointment, they send you to another tag agency where the AC doesn't work and the staff has an attitude. Honestly, it feels like only the upper class or certain people are welcome here. Very disappointing and unprofessional experience.

Nothing short of that was the event I attended at Central Library on 4/21/18. The library hosted a fashion show that featured area students that designed dresses made from trash & other found / discarded items. What these young people came up with was absolutely miraculous, and the juxtaposition of those beautiful creations over the fact that we have a massive waste crisis on out hands in this world was really moving. One dress was made entirely of green soda bottles curled and extruded to create a flowing, bouncing ensemble mirrored by a hairdo of similar curl and body donned by the model. Another outfit top was made almost exclusively with a young lady's grandfathers old ties. Very creative! This is why I live in this part of Florida, and why I will continue to support the community and events they offer for many years to come.

You can see what the wait time is going to be before you bother to go. How great is that? There is no excuse not to get out and vote when they make it this easy. When I showed up, there was no line, no hassle, no waiting... in and out in 10 minutes. Don't forget your photo ID! When you do early voting, you can appear at any of the 5 county early voting locations-- you do not have to wait to vote at your own polling station. All the information you need to know about getting registered or voting is on the website. I strongly recommend taking advantage of early voting. Get it over with on your schedule without the last minute rush or hassle.
