Reminder: District 1 Town Hall Meeting Tuesday Evening
February 21, 2022
District 1 Escambia County Commissioner and Chairman Jeff Bergosh will host a town hall Tuesday from 5:30 until 7 p.m. at Beulah Middle School.
Attendees will include county staff, District 1 ECUA board member Vicki Campbell, Escambia County School Board District 1 member Kevin Adams, and Debbie Malsberger from State Rep. Michelle Salzman’s office.
Bergosh intends to discuss countywide issues including COVID-19 response and recovery, new redistricting boundaries, the budget, the county jail and staffing issues, Escambia County Fire Rescue and EMS, Triumph Gulf Coast, and the RESTORE Act. There will be topics of interest to District 1 discussed as well, including OLF-8, the Beulah Community Master Plan, the District 1 library and Beulah fire station, and an elevated walkway and sidewalks for Beulah. Bergosh will also give an update on the Mobile Highway road project, the Nine Mile/Beulah interchange and transportation projects including Longleaf Drive and Avondale Sidewalk.
Bergosh will also utilize “agree” or “disagree” cards so residents can answer questions posed during the town hall. Comment cards will be available so county staff can address residents’ concerns.

It’s my understanding that when there is a town hall meeting, it’s to be heard by the officials. Norah, I am beginning to feel the same way you are about this meeting. I have tried to get problems addressed by Mr. Bergosh on several occasions by contacting his office to no avail. I reached out to local news to help but was put off again. This sounds like the “Meeting “ will be more of the same. He will try to make excuses for excuses. God help Out district!
If we can’t speak, what use is it to attend ? You’re instructed to use their “agree or disagree” cards. They do not want to hear us and treat us like children. The only time they want to hear from us is election day. If I was to go, I would take a big sign that says “YOU’RE FIRED”.
Doubt there will be many people from Perdido in attendance.
