Give him a chance…how can he be any worse than the others we elected? I agree though, if they (the Over halsers) are related, one of them should step down, don’t care if they are in different departments.
Yes, Oversight, give it a rest. We don’t need anybody shining light into the darkness. You might find something that you wished you hadn’t.
Meet the new boss…same as the old boss.
Oversight,
Give it a rest. Steven will do a good job.
“Animal Services Advisory Committee — Cara T. Overhalser
Board of Adjustment — Jennifer J. Rigby
Escambia County Mass Transit Advisory Committee — Jeffery S. Overhalser…”
Is it coincidence in last names or blatant nepotism with the Overhalser appointments, Mr. Barry? By the way, what are the bio’s of those appointed and what makes them the best people to represent district five other than campaign contributions?
