KEVIN WHITE WILL GET MY VOTE AND SUPPORT AGAIN THIS TIME. HE HAS DONE ALOT FOR OUR END OF THE COUNTY ,STOP FUSSING AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND. SOME OF THE PEOPLE ON HERE THINK EACH OF THE 5 DISTRICTS HAVE FREE RUN OF THE COUNTY CHECKBOOK TO DO WITH AS THEY PLEASE. IT DON’T WORK THAT WAY. JUST BECAUSE YOUR PET PROJECT DIDN’T GET DONE , YOU WANT SOMEONE NEW PUT IN PLACE.THERE ARE PROBLEMS IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE TOO ,BUT I REALIZE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE IN THE DIST. WITH WANTS AND NEEDS. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE GREATER GOOD AND A BUDGET. IT’S NOT MAGIC! IF YOU THINK IT’S SO EASY TO DO EVERY PROJECT EVERY TIME …MAYBE YOU SHOULD RUN FOR OFFICE AND PLEASE US ALL , ALL OF THE TIME. I’M VOTING FOR KEVIN WHITE AGAIN.

Hello Dennis. I guess you did not know, how business is conducted in Escambia county. Things are going to change soon, about the time Sammy Archer gets seated in his new job.

I have been talking with members of the Dirt Road Paving Committee (did you even know we have one?). From what I have gathered one of the major disappointments was Pelt Road. It WAS paved (and much needed) but at unnecessary expenses to the tax payers. The county has an engineering department, but the Commission hired an outside firm to come in and survey the road – which could have been done by ANY decent engineer already working for the county. Additionally completely unnecessary expenses were incurred. How can Mr. White possibly reduce the budget when he is spending money unnecessarily? I guess if you don’t mind OUR money being wasted, keep him in office. Otherwise, it’s time for him to go!

LADY: Sure, move to Ala. Pay sales tax on drugs, groceries and and just about any thing else they can find to tax. You’ll also love paying the STATE INCOME TAX if you or a family member is still working. They also have zoning in some area’s and restrictions on other land use. I wonder how many of the commenters have been to a commission meeting and know first hand what White and the rest have to put up with? While it’s true they have staff to help there are other meeting they have to go to. If you want a change—- run for the office and make every thing right and wonderful.

Until they change the way the district is divided the North end will never get anyone elected that runs from this area. All the people even across 9-mile road have to vote on our commissioner. We need someone from this North end to get elected but all who have ever run couldn’t because the South end of district had more votes.
We should be annexed into Alabama. They don’t pay the property taxes, insurance, or have the strict zoning so you cannot leave your children an acre of land to build on. This needs to be changed but when it was enacted, a person from the North was on that committee and didn’t know anything about the land owners and how much land they had in the north end of county – didn’t even know where it was and that’s a fact because I was involved. Here again, not enough in district to carry a vote of any kind up north.

Give it a rest .The good ol boy system needs to go.Things are changed,only when those benifit from them.When you have to boast about what has been done..it is shadowed by so much more that hasn’t…
The present Rep is out of touch with so many up here..unless it means development…or support for votes.
All you hear when something is questioned,,,,thats another departments job or I’ll check into it.
Enforce your position in all it’s power…The rubbing of elbows and longevity of friendship should not be the bases for someone to be in a position any longerThere are so many under your supervision that are just wasting space and getting paid for it. Don’t just skate the system until it’s time to get serious again..The thought of unemployment is scary isn’t it.
