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 :
On 1370 WCOA This Morning
I'll be on AM 1370 WCOA this morning at 6:50 AM discussing multiple topics to include the naming of the replacement bridge over Pensacola Bay.
Should be an interesting interview.
Once I get it, I
will publish the interview here.

Commissioner, you and your four counterparts do excellent work for Escambia County! I believe: that which benefits you, benefits Escambia, and vice versa. As an advocate of Escambia County, I would like to offer you some important advice - advice of which you are likely already aware - but I feel it is worth my effort all the same.
I read your interactions with a commenter regarding Beall and his history. The commenter mentioned that Beall’s actions, which might be misinterpreted as racist, were actually politically motivated due in part to Jim Crow laws, etc..
I would counsel you to give a wide berth to ANY racial aspect regarding the naming of the new bridge. That discussion is highly nuanced and ripe for your political adversaries to distort your words and intentions. Some of our populace, while of strong character, might lack the sophistication to discern this nuanced argument.
Yours should be a positive, uplifting vision of our united future.
