In his ongoing quest to collect public records from the county, Broward Sheriff Al Lamberti has submitted requests for county officials to cough up financial records related to a sewer project and Cultural Council spending.

Lamberti has sent more than a dozen official records requests to County Hall as he embarks on a comparison of BSO and county spending. The records request blitz was launched after county officials asked Lamberti to cut more than $50 million and he refused.

If the two sides can't resolve their differences by September, the budget showdown will move to Tallahassee.
