Dang. Out of self-interest, I had hoped Mrs. Gilley wouldn’t be offered this position, or take it if she was.
Congratulations and best wishes, Janice. I look forward to your capable leadership of Escambia County operations.

Great decision made to have Janice Gilley in this position. She will put the wheels back on the wagon and move forward in a positive manner!
What ? No outlanders available ? I figure at least 2 of the commissioners are outlanders & they’d want one for the administrator job. I’m glad Janice got the job , maybe she will last for a while.
Way to go Janice, I hope and pray that you can help
