For kind words, my appreciation: for those who are tired of me, well, the voters will decide again in 2020. Chris, that face in the photo? I was at a called meeting at the Century wastewater treatment plant—outside—at high noon. It felt like 110 in the shade, and maybe it was. But perhaps ECUA will be involved in a final solution to one of Century’s problems. Only one other response, to Mr. Reality: ECUA’s Materials Recycling Facility is a successful operation, still, and it will be long after both you and I are gone. Tours may be arranged.

Actually, we have never done better than Larry Walker…or even as well with any other.
I doubt we ever will.

David for better people
like Larry.

30 years in office!!! That’s a lot. For a man to stay in an elected position that long says a lot!! You have to put up with a lot of sour people to stay in something for that long. And, you have to keep getting back up when John Doe Public knocks you down.
Might as well give him another go at it.

He has a God complex from what I hear..
u have a staff set in place it’s called customer service n supervisor let them handle complaints n calls not u.
Pay sucks n turn over is unrealistic.
Time for change.
Go Retire move on!!!!!!

Living in Santa Rosa County for years and just moving to Escambia County, I know little about Dr. Walker as my friends refer to him. But serving in a position as long as he has, he knows the business. It takes more than one person to vote to raise rates. Just saying, he’s not the only one in favor of raising rates. The current raised rate is $.91 per month is what customer service stated to me. If this is true, seriously that small amount is less than a bottle of soda or a candy bar.

@ Mark – a great comment and I’m sure Dr. Walker will appreciate it.

@ Howie – I hope you get your can issues resolved. Dr. Walker will most likely see your comment and take care of it if he is the stickler for getting it done ASAP as they say he is.

The remaining comments are opinions by the poster and everyone has a right to voice their opinion.

Enjoy the weekend. Cooler weather is on the way (at least that’s what they have forecast)

Put some trash out on Monday night….Thursday it is still there…call ECUA told them it was still there on Wednesday….I was advised they will pick up next week. Have fun picking up wet mattresses and springs….Do you think if Larry Walker had items out…would he have been told this?

First elected in 1988? That’s 32 years by the time the elections happen. The people that voted for him the 1st time will be at least 50 years old. How old were you in 1988? That’s a lifetime he’s spent in office. How many times has he voted for a rate increase in three decades? Time for a change with anybody else.
