The Premiere of "Real News" With Rick Outzen Weekdays on WCOA--I Was a Guest on the First Episode


I was asked to join Rick Outzen as a guest on his first day hosting his new daily morning show "Real News" with Rick Outzen yesterday morning on 1370 WCOA.  He'll be doing a daily morning show on 1370 going forward, and he had a pretty powerful lineup yesterday.

Here is the Podcast of our interview from yesterday--where we discussed the former HR Director, Matt Selover's settlement, and the state of the County's administration going forward.  It was a great discussion!

What Does Escambia County, And District 1, Want to See on OLF-8?

62% of County Residents surveyed in today's poll want jobs developed on OLF-8, while only 18.5% want to see housing and retail developed on the site...

Today Rick Outzen, publisher of INWeekly and Rick's Blog,  posted the results from a survey he conducted county-wide regarding the development of Beulah's OLF-8.

His post goes through the numbers from each commissioner's district.

The results are not surprising to me--as they mirror the results from a similar poll conducted last October.

When we use a wide net and capture the thoughts of ALL voters on this topic----the overwhelming majority of citizens agree with me in that we need 1.) NO residential on the field and 2.) Good, High Tech High-Paying Jobs.

I say it's not surprising--I'm sure there are a couple of subdivisions and about 2-dozen folks who may be surprised, and unhappy, about what this polling says people want.....
