    Unions, builder spar over local hiring stats By MATT GRISWOLD
    Stan McIntosh, business manager for Plumbers & Pipefitters Local Union 123, located in Dover, a small community in southern Hillsborough County, said his union has sent 40 people to Parrish and not one has been hired.

    'I'll be surprised if I ever see them hired. They're just not going to do it,' McIntosh said.

    Russell Leggette, an organizer for the Florida Pipe Trades, invited the Herald to take a look at the license plates on cars at the FPL construction site in Parrish.
