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.

75th Coffee with the Commissioner this Wednesday Morning on Facebook Live---All About Growth Management and Zoning

Join us this Wednesday, August 10th, for our 75th Coffee with the Commissioner live on Facebook.  We will have Administrator Wes Moreno and Public Safety Director Eric Gilmore giving updates on the county and public safety, respectively, and as our special guests we will be joined by Development Services Director Horace Jones and Andrew "Drew" Holmer, Division Manager, Development Services. We will talk with Drew and Horace about upcoming developments, how the county's development process works, and how this county department works in conjunction with the planning board and the board of county commissioners to implement the land development code.  This is one area of governance that receives a lot of scrutiny and many citizen complaints, so I look forward to the discussion and having a lot of answers to citizen questions and complaints.  

We will start at 6:30 live on Facebook at www.facebook.com/CommissionerBergosh/ as is always the case--residents are encouraged to participate and send questions to via the comment feature during the livestream or by sending questions in advance to district1@myescambia.com or by calling the D1 office at 850-595-4910.

This Monday we expect you to be invited by Outzen to talk on his radio show and then catch his podcast because he's on that dead horse thing called the AM radio.

Hey, that "Dead Horse" thing you describe happens to be the highest rated, most reliable, local, and dependable station for local news and good programming--hands down, #1. 1370 WCOA--the best morning news station, the best syndicted hosts in the afternoon. Hands down. So of course I always enjoy being invited on to discuss things that are happening on the board on Rick's Show.

You are correct Commissioner Bergosh. It seems a lot of time is spent at public meetings addressing development. Hopefully some will tune in and learn.

Rick does cover local government news in debth.

Hopefully we are moving past the facebook years where ignorance and agenda often prevail.
