Comments on: State Attorney Submitting Century Financial Information To Florida’s Auditor General http://www.northescambia.com/2019/03/state-attorney-submitting-century-financial-information-to-floridas-auditor-general Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Sun, 05 Apr 2026 14:44:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: question http://www.northescambia.com/2019/03/state-attorney-submitting-century-financial-information-to-floridas-auditor-general/comment-page-1#comment-385806 question Wed, 27 Mar 2019 20:06:05 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=357929#comment-385806 So what happens if they ignore the grand jury recommendations, vote to spend 4K more on the gas department, send them to Texas--allow the council member to vote who has an outstanding loan and for all we know the Mayor spent taxpayer money on family air fare? So they don't report financial emergency to the governor or the JLAC and the Grand Jury is still convened, can the grand jury indite them while they are still watching their actions or inactions? or is the grand jury just all bark and no bite? Will the state intervene or let them just continue to operate like this: “The gross mismanagement and apparent ineptitude of so many individuals at so many levels is so overwhelming that we cannot imagine any level of incompetence that would explain what we have seen.” Honestly, this is baffling.

Honestly, this is baffling.

The Mayor and Council Members should ALL resign, because it is obvious that THEY do not have a clue on how to do the jobs they were elected to. Better get dissolve the Council and have no Mayor. Let the Country Commissioners make the decisions for Century. The people of Century should have a Recall of the Election.

How long has Hawkins been Mayor. I guess we need too ask Gomez if we want to know something about the town or the towns council. I think the mayor should get at least 25 years to think about what happened under his watch. A town broke and going down death row thanks to him. He should do the right thing and step down and take his punishment and let the town try to heal itself. I wouldn't give the town of Century the time of day right now and I ashamed to tell anyone I've from here. What's left here for the people. We all need to get out while we can. 1 million in two years. How long has Hawkins been Mayor. I guess we need too ask Gomez if we want to know something about the town or the towns council.

Why wait on a consultant? They should already know what needs to be done.
