District 5’s White To Be Named Commission Chair
October 25, 2010
The next chairman of the Escambia County Commission will be Kevin White.
White, the District 5 commissioner that represents North Escambia, will be installed as the new commission chair at the final BOCC meeting in November. White currently serves as vice chairman of the commission.
When White moves up to commission chairman, District 1 Commissioner Wilson Robertson will become the new vice chairman of the Escambia County Commission.
Every November, any newly elected commissioners are installed and a board reorganization takes place.

Reading the comments on this article really makes you wonder about this whole idea of elected officials. Normally when someone gets a new position people pat them on
the back and say job well done, you deserve it. We vote someone in to a position
to serve the needs of the community, and once in, its over. We don’t have any say
in anything. Kevin White, I hope you sleep well at night, actually I don’t. Look at
where listening to Wilson has gotten you, with the people who voted you in. Maybe the tourists think your something but we have other thoughts.
Of course we can all just show up at the next meeting and ask him to resign….
Why don’t we just get up a petition and have him ejected??????
Without a parachute of course….
lol
Let’s VOTE Kevin White OUT when the next election comes around! It works for Washington, why not here?
The county commissioners seem to have time to joke around about the dead but can’t seem to do ANYTHING WORTHWHILE for the north end of the county. Just exactly where is Kevin White from anyway?! And who is he supposed to represent, other than the people who pay him off?
I am glad to see that North Escambia.Com puts some humor into the news
reporting because these two elected officials are a joke. All answers requested
of these two individuals are answered by county engineers.
Enjoy it while you can Kevin. You turned your back on the people that voted you in (including me) along time ago and when your time is up I will vote for anyone but you.
marcia,
well said and your not alone
white once told someone that our street would never be paved..,..
not as long as he was commissioner.
be careful what you wish for White…..that can be arranged.
Thought Kevin White was voted in to serve the people in the northern end of the
county. He seems joined at the hip w/Wilson Robertson, and we are on the bottom
of the pole to get things done. Take a trip down Crary Road, stop by anyone’s
home, ask how they feel. We eat dirt 24/7, people fly up and down this road and you
just sit and watch that hugh dust storm settling in on everything in your yard and
home. I’ve been stopping people and asking them to slow down. When we get a
rain, then you have mud everywhere. It sticks, and keeps building. Asked sheriff’s
deputies to just drive down here, but their answer is they only have two and this
whole end to patrol, makes our problems small. We signed our land over to the
county years ago, hasn’t even made it to the courthouse, let alone getting something
done with this road. We have to have our own satelite for internet on the computers,
but they boast of FREE, FAST, INTERNET, for the tourists in the south end. This is
the twentieh century, we sure don’t see it. They want our property tax, but don’t
expect anyting from them. Guess Kevin White needs more to do down there, because he sure isn’t doing it here.
Things need to change in our neck of the wood in this country but no one can get elected from the NORTH end of the county because people on 9-mile road have to vote on them and money speaks. the one with the most contributions get the job. We tried to change that by having someone up our way run for commissior but not enough votes up here. This should be changed and only voters from Cantonment to the AL state liine should be in District 5. Same o,same o
You know what you can do with that chair WHITE
You can sit in it and shut the heck up…………………
Collect your fat kat salary while you may……………
There are a lot of ppl in this county who got your number…..
“0″
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!@!!!
Way to go Kevin.
ROLE TIED !!!!!
Whoopie do….I believe we may have to leave this county to get employment way to go guys!
WHAT A JOKE. MY GOATS HAS MORE SENSE THEN SOME OF THEM
The more things change the more they stay the same.
same old, same old, doesn’t matter who is chairman. We need some new blood and some backbone to replace current members.
Maybe Kevin White and the rest of the county commissioners need to read the article on unemployment in Escambia county! How about updating business permits so we can get some businesses in here instead of having them go to Santa Rosa, etc. because it takes so long to get the permit! We have do have a nice commerce park that is not being used on Hwy. 29 and we have the labor force.
