On October 18, 2012, the Escambia County Board of County Commissioners established the RESTORE Act Advisory Committee. The purpose of the Committee is to develop a plan, take public input and set the final goals for the community’s use of RESTORE funds. The Committee will review projects and submit recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration. The Committee will consist of nine members who are residents of Escambia County, with committee members individually representing the financial industry, the business community, transportation, government, the City of Pensacola, local environmental advocacy organizations, citizens-at-large, and two unrestricted at-large positions to be determined by Board approval. Members will serve on the Committee until it has made all recommendations and completed its assignments as designated by the Board of County Commissioners.
The two at-large positions will be recommended to the Board by the County Administrator and Assistant County Administrator. Citizens interested in serving should forward their resume to Mr. Larry Newsom, Assistant County Administrator, 221 Palafox Place, Suite 420, Pensacola, Florida 32502. All resumes must be received no later than Friday, January 18, 2013 for consideration.
