Thank you for allowing me to serve as your District 1 Escambia County Commissioner. I have always approached this position from a common sense perspective, and I have always worked hard to deliver for this community. We have had some big wins, we've got lots of projects in the pipeline, and we have much more to do.
So I'm humbly asking for your support again for District 1 County Commissioner in this election. I promise to continue to be a fierce, passionate, outspoken, dedicated and committed advocate for you all-- the residents and taxpayers of Escambia County and District 1 that I serve.
With your support, we will laser focus on modernizing traffic and stormwater infrastructure, managing growth intelligently, prioritizing public safety, streamlining the governmental bureaucracy, never raising year over year millage rate taxes, diversifying our jobs base, improving our local economy and our local communities, and making Escambia County the best it can be!
Thank you!
Very Respectfully,
Jeff Bergosh
