Former Century Mayor Evelyn Hammond Still At Town Hall?
November 6, 2008
She’s been gone from the mayor’s office in Century for almost a year, but if you get the town’s answering machine, there’s still an option to talk to Evelyn Hammond.
Century resident Annie Savage said she called the town hall recently, getting the town’s auto-attendant rather than a live person. There were the usual options to press numbers to be connected to employees like Town Clerk Dorothy Sims. But then there was “press 4″.
Savage told the town council that she was appalled to her “press 4 for Mayor Evelyn Hammond”, especially considering Hammond has been out of office for 11 months.
When asked by NorthEscambia.com if she “pressed 4 just to see what happened”, Savage said she did not. NorthEscambia.com attempted to reach the recorded phone message Wednesday evening, but when dialing the listed number for Century Town Hall we were connected to a live operator at the town’s answering service.
Town officials said the recording would be changed as soon as possible by the phone service provider.

Some people in Century has little to do. I am sure this is an oversite and it only takes a few minutes to correct. The town employees and Council has more important things to do then listen to someone complain about getting Ms. Hammonds voice on #4. All you had to do was to bring it to the attention of Mr. McCall and he would have taken care of it – But instead you had to make it front page news. Shame-Shame
Chuck, you don’t even live in Century. But funny anyway.
ha ha ha Chuck, that’s really funny!
I pressed 4 and all of my utility bills suddenly vanished!!!
Ms. hammond is no longwer in office, so why keep beating an old dead horse. I hope the people will concentrate on moving forward, and helping Century to grow. We need to worry about jobs and growth for the future, and not keep carrying the weight of the past on our shoulders.
Whatever is on the phone message don’t matter, we all know she was voted out. All the town citizens need to concentrate on getting the Electric Car Plant before it is to late.
