ORLANDO, Fla. — Seminole County’s attorney Tuesday said he has reached an agreement with former tax collector Joel Greenberg toward the payment of nearly $1.9 million in restitution for public money that was misspent during his time in office.
“I have reached a tentative agreement, a verbal agreement — and I emphasize verbal — with Joel Greenberg’s attorney for restitution in the amount of $1,870,351,” county Attorney Bryant Applegate told commissioners.
Applegate added that he expects the county to obtain the money at Greenberg’s sentencing scheduled for March in federal court in downtown Orlando or “prior thereto.”
