26th Coffee With a Commissioner This Week!
On Wednesday we will be hosting our 26th coffee with a commissioner event for District 1.
All are welcome and encouraged to attend.
We will be meeting at the Denny's Restaurant at 4625 Mobile Highway from 6:30-7:30 AM.
These meetings are a great opportunity for citizens to come and meet me and staff in a very comfortable, non-intimidating setting. Come on out, and let me hear from you about how the county can serve you better and what we can do to help you with your particular neighborhood issues.
We have been able to address a lot of minor issues on the spot or very quickly after these coffee meetings--maybe we can help you with your lingering issues?
Here is the format: I give a quick update on county-wide issues of significance--and then we go around the room and I take questions from each attendee at the coffee and we discuss the issues as a group with staff members participating. Then, if time permits, we go around the room again.
For those who cannot attend in person--we will be live-streaming this event on my Commissioner's Facebook page. (We have listened to those who watch the videos online and who have complained about the sound quality--we will be addressing that issue starting this week! We will have GREAT sound quality now with some enhancements/equipment we have acquired)
Everyone who wants to speak will be heard.
Topics this week will include the following:
--Road swap-Beulah Road for Perdido Key Drive
--OLF 8 Master Planning Process
--New D1 Restore Act Projects commencing
--Status on opening new Gulf Access #4 in Perdido Key
--NW District 1 Advisory Committee Update--Community Survey Results from UWF Haas Center
--Preliminary work on a HUGE re-paving and safety enhancement infrastructure project will commence within 18 Months on Mobile Hwy from Pine Forest to Hwy 90
