Guidelines

I am one member of a five person board. The opinions I express on this forum are mine only, and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of the Escambia County Staff, Administrators, Employees, or anyone else associated with Escambia County Florida. I am interested in establishing this blog as a means of additional transparency to the public, outreach to the community, and information dissemination to all who choose to look. Feedback is welcome, but because public participation is equally encouraged, appropriate language and decorum is mandatory. Although this is not my campaign site for re-election--sometimes campaign related information will be discussed, therefore in an abundance of caution I add the following :

Northwest District 1 Advisory Committee Appointees Selected



I want to thank all of the citizens that stepped up and volunteered to serve on the Northwest District 1 Advisory Committee as specified in the resolution adopted by the BCC in June.

The cutoff date for applications has passed (applications were due by 7-31-2018) and the slate of citizens selected to serve has been identified.

At next week's regular meeting of the BCC, the following names will be put before the full BCC for approval as specified in the resolution that established this committee:

Jay Ingwell
Kim Aderholdt
David Liechty
Dr. Laura Bryant
Jill Johnson
George Levy
Joseph Poitivan
Wilson Taylor
Paul Flores

Several members of the community had expressed interest in serving on this committee, but for unknown reasons these folks did not apply within the specified time frame.  I will continue to accept applications from those that are interested in serving but who did not apply during the first window of time for applicants, and in the event of a vacancy on this committee I will select a replacement from this new pool of applicants which also includes the citizens who submitted initially but who were not selected.

I look forward to having this committee reach out to the citizens of the Northwest portion of District 1 in order to work to implement a master plan for this area of the district--in addition to providing recommendations on addressing growth and infrastructure.

The initial meeting of this new committee is scheduled for Monday, September 10, 2018.
