Jeff Bergosh Blog: A Humble Privilege: Naming Station 2 the "Bradshaw-McNair Fire Station"

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 : Political Advertisement Paid for and Approved by Jeff Bergosh, Republican, for Escambia County Commissioner District 1

A Humble Privilege: Naming Station 2 the "Bradshaw-McNair Fire Station"

Watch the ceremony via this video, above

Friday morning was a great day for Escambia County, ECFR, and the Beulah Community of District 1.

It was my honor and humble privilege to host the community, fellow elected officials, and county staff members as we broke ground on Escambia County's newest, most modern fire facility in Beulah.

It has been a long time coming, and the effort to make this happen predates my time on the board.

But finally, at long last, the Board has approved the expenditure of $8.4 Million to build this facility. They have also unanimously approved the naming of this facility in honor of 2 great men, Dwain S. Bradshaw and Steve McNair.

What a great day; days like this are what it is all about!
