Escambia Commission To Interview Finalists For County Administrator Next Month
March 16, 2019
The Escambia County Commission will begin the process of choosing a new county administrator next month from a pool of 120 or more applicants.
The application period closes on March 27. At least 75 applicants that meet minimum qualifications will be reviewed by the Florida Association of County Managers, and the commission will receive a list of finalists by their Committee of the Whole meeting on April 11.
Commissioners plan to hold a special meeting to interview finalists on April 29.
Jack Brown retired from the administrator’s job after over four years to take care of his wife and her health issues. Assistant administrator Amy Lovoy is serving as interim administrator until the position is filled.

First, Mr. Jack Brown, Thank You for your Service and Dedication to we the Citizens of Escambia County Florida. you are a Good Man. Many thoughts and Prayers for you and your dear wife in this time, God Bless You and Watch over You.
Notice to Escambia County School Board Members, you should be paying very close attention to the Process utilized by the Board of Commissioners in selecting from a Wide Area of applicants for County Administrator.
You will be involved in a similar process during the interview and selection process for a new APPOINTED Escambia County Superintendent of Schools in the near future.
I am still in SHOCK that we Citizens Willingly Surrendered our Right to Vote for the highest office in OUR school system. It will be very interesting to observe this totally new process among our elected board members.
