Commissioners discuss openings on commissions, safety director

CHIPLEY — The Washington Coun-ty Board of County Commissioners discussed fi lling a few county posi-tions and rescinded an early board action at Thursday’s BOCC meet-ing in Chipley.
Senior Planner Mike DeRuntz asked the board to consider a list of candidates for the county planning commission. Commissioner Tonya Pippin will be stepping down from the panel in May, and a replace-ment is needed for her.
“We have quite a few people who have expressed interest in serv-ing on the commission, and I have been getting in touch with them to make sure they are still willing,” DeRuntz said.
He noted that Pippin’s position is an “at-large” position, and can be fi lled with a resident from any-where in the county.
Commissioner Charles Brock asked if the open position had been advertised so that the public would know a commissioner was being sought.
“Back in 2011 the county ad-vertised for persons interested in serving on boards,” DeRuntz said. From the applications received in 2011, he had compiled a list of po-tential candidates for the planning commission.
The board was asked to consid-er the names on the list and come back to the May meeting ready to discuss an appointment.
“It would be great to have a full board,” DeRuntz said.
The commissioners also dis-cussed the county’s search for a public safety director.
Chairman Alan Bush said he was concerned with the direction the search for a public safety direc-tor was taking.
After Roger Hagan retired as public safety director in December, the commission voted to update the county’s organizational chart and move the Emergency Medical Services under the direction of the public safety director.
Bush said he thought that the board may have acted precipitously in putting the EMS under the pub-lic safety director’s jurisdiction.
“I never got a clear feeling from the board for what they wanted to do,” Bush said.
He suggested the county move the EMS back out from under the direction of the public safety director.
“We shouldn’t fi ll this position,” said Commissioner Joel Pate, who was celebrating his 75th birthday on Thursday. “This has been mis-handled from the get-go.”
County Attorney Jeff Goodman said that the board would have to rescind its previous action of changing the organizational chart, and that the job should be re-adver-tised and a new pool of candidates gathered and interviewed.

CHIPLEY — The Washington County Board of County Com-missioners were temporarily speechless when County Ad-ministrator Steve Joyner ten-dered his resignation to the board on Thursday morning.
“This is something that has been weighing on me for the past couple of months,” Joyner said, “and I would like to resign my position as county adminis-trator effective tomorrow.”
“This breaks my heart,” Commissioner Todd Abbott said.
“Are you sure this isn’t something you would recon-
sider, Steve?” asked Chairman Alan Bush.
“It’s not anything any one commissioner has done,” Joyner said. “This is something I’ve considered for a while.”
County Attorney Jeff Good-man said the board should con-sider calling a special meet-ing next week to appoint an interim county administrator. “It would be best to regroup, get our thoughts together, then look at appointing an interim administrator.”

CARYVILLE — Caryville celebrat-ed their new Senior Center with a grand unveiling held on Wednes-day at the Caryville Civic Center.

“We are so very excited to bring you all fun activities, good food and fellowship every Wednesday,” said Assistant Director Anita Ingersoll of the Washington County COA. “We’ve got arts and crafts as well as a large variety of games. We’re also open to new ideas and would love to hear what you would like to do.”
Ingersoll said if you are a
member of the senior community and would like to attend, eat a meal or are in need of transpor-tation to make reservations at

would be conducted by the county administrator and the human resources direc-tor, Goodman said.
“I was not comfortable with that decision of the board at that time,” Bush said of the organizational change. “The further it pro-gressed, the less comfort-able I got.”
“I’m confused,” said Brock. “The EMS director was always the responsibil-ity of the public safety di-rector. Whoever moves into that spot should have the same responsibilities Roger Dale had.”
Commissioner Todd Ab-bott said before EMS came under the direction of the county, back when it was still controlled by the hospi-
tal, the county’s long-range plan was that someday the EMS would be under the county’s public safety direc-tor’s control.
“What I am hearing now is in contradiction to that,” Abbott said. “We’re asking, ‘did we do the right thing?’”
“If we got the wrong per-son in that position, it could hurt two strong, well func-tioning departments,” Bush said. “Right now, we’ve bound our county adminis-trator’s hands in forcing him to fill the position this way.”
Commissioner Lynn Go-thard asked if this meant they would hire the public safety director based on the old job description. Pate said that was correct.
“The only problem I have
is that in that very first meet-ing, there was a name that came up and that name is still in the top three,” Brock said.
The commissioners vot-ed to rescind their action of Jan. 24 and take the EMS out from under the direction of the public safety director, according to the organiza-tional chart.
Gothard and Brock voted against the change, while Abbott, Bush and Pate voted in favor.
“I would like to see us have more discussion and some clarification,” said Abbott.
Abbott said the commis-sioners’ actions were mak-ing it difficult for County Administrator Steve Joyner to do his job.
“Mr. Joyner has a va-cancy and he is authorized to fill this position,” Ab-bott said. “I think we have wrongfully taken away some of his options, and for that I apologize.”11

CHIPLEY — The Washing-ton County Sheriff’s Office, in collaboration with State of Florida Division of Al-coholic Beverages and To-bacco, reported thousands of dollars in fines have been assessed against a Wash-ington County business for unlicensed sale and service of liquor.
According to a sheriff ’s office news release, investi-gators received information that the Thirsty Turtle Tav-ern in Caryville was illegally
selling liquor to customers. During an inspection, in-vestigators discovered ad-vertisements for the sell of liquor displayed. In addition, bottles of liquor, wine, and Jell-O shots were found at the business.
The establishment was assessed $4,000 in fines. Failure to pay fines could re-sult in the revocation of the tavern’s license.
The WCSO asks that anyone with information on illegal activity contact them at 638-TIPS (8477) or [email protected].

CHIPLEY — Scott Sweeney, Park Spe-cialist at Falling Waters State Park, will present a program on “Beneficial and Friendly Garden Snakes” at the May meeting of Chipley Garden Club.
For centuries, the lowly snake has been one of the most misunderstood creatures on Planet Earth, yet they play a vital role in our environment.
The right snake in your garden can be very beneficial – and safe. It can de-ter rabbits and birds, and even “lunch” on other snakes and rodents.
This educational hands-on program will follow the regular business meet-ing and will be held Wednesday, May 1 at 10:30 a.m. at the Sunny Hills Commu-nity Center at 4083 Challenger Road in Sunny Hills. Luncheon will follow.
Chipley Garden Club meetings are open to the public.
If you would like to attend the meet-ing, need directions, or just want to learn more about the club’s activities and upcoming projects, please call Club President Karen Roland at 638-9968 or email her at [email protected].

Commissioner Joel Pate said he has been on the board since 2006, and Joyner has been the best county administrator the county has ever had.
Abbott made a motion that the commis-sioners appoint Interim Human Resources Director Albert Davis as interim county ad-ministrator, but the motion was voted down 3-2, with Commissioners Lynn Gothard, Bush and Charles Brock voting against.
“No discredit to you, Mr. Davis,” Bush said, “but I don’t think we want to have a knee-jerk reaction.
“I’ve worked with about every county administrator this county has had, and Mr. Joyner has been one of the best,” said Pub-lic Services Director David Corbin. “It’s tearing at my heart to stand up here, and this is the first time I have ever done it.
“I appreciate the job you’ve done, and I wish you the best,” Corbin said to Joyner.
Goodman said he had learned quite a bit working with Joyner over the years. “I appreciate everything you’ve done for me, and for my family,” he said to Joyner.
“If I had to rank the jobs in the county, the job of county administrator would have to be one of the most difficult,” Goodman told the commissioners. “Whoever sits in that seat next, deserves your respect.”
“This is one of the biggest losses the county has ever suffered,” County EMS Di-rector Randy Truette said of Joyner’s res-ignation. “He’s been the very best county manager I ever worked for, and not just in Washington County.”

VERNON — On April 12 and 13, the Vernon High School JROTC cadets traveled to Pals Park in Chipley for the annual Relay for Life event.
Relay for life is held to collect money for the American Can-cer Society, and help the many families in need. This year’s theme was “Racing for a Cure,” so JROTC picked “Around the World in 80 Days,” and the cadets dressed up in hot air balloons.
An advanced party of four ca-dets went ahead with MAJ Kun-eman to set up the campsite. Af-ter school the remaining cadets made their way over to the event. The whole event started off at 6 p.m. with our Color Guard post-ing colors, and leading the cancer survivors as they began the first
lap by walking through our saber arch. The night was filled with ex-citement as the events raged on, cadets participated in the dance competition, costumes, the jump rope contest, and many more.
Everyone had fun partici-pating in the various activities, stayed up all night, and tired themselves out. In the morning, we packed up our stuff and head-ed out with a “bon voyage” until next year. As a note, our JROTC team raised $1,368 for the Ameri-can Cancer Society this year.

Section FAITHPart of the miracle of life is that
we’re constantly changing. You can likely name at least one way your life changed during the past year. It would be diffi cult to imagine the person whose life is so uneventful that nothing ever changes. Some changes occur every single day. We’re even changing on a cellular level. So when is the last time you experienced genuine change in your beliefs, habits or attitudes?
Some people insist that their beliefs never change. If so, then those beliefs are dead. I once knew a man who proudly claimed that his religious beliefs hadn’t changed since he was fi ve years old. That’s like being proud of graduating kindergarten but never accomplishing anything beyond that point. He was alive, but his ideas were dead.
What would you think of a person who walked around town with a dead animal slung around his neck? You’d likely think he had lost his mind. But carrying around dead ideas makes no more sense than lugging around an animal carcass. If something is dead and decaying, why voluntarily carry it around with you?
Some Evangelicals use the phrase “my walk with the Lord” to describe their spiritual progress. If you feel that you’re walking with Jesus, do you think he’s going to appreciate 80 years of standing in the same spot? Referring to spiritual momentum as a “walk” conveys the idea of forward motion.
When we walk, we don’t expect to see the same scenery we saw one mile back. It would be a very strange walk, indeed, if we were always going backwards.
Some of us walk our dogs farther than we walk our faith. If faith is a journey, some folks never make it past the starting gate. They’ll say a quick prayer, maybe have a brief religious experience, and that’s it for the rest of their lives. That’s a nice beginning, but it hardly qualifi es as a journey. No one wins a race by running just one step. True, a beginning step is necessary to start a race, but in order to win, we have to keep moving forward.
One way to ensure forward movement is to release resentment
about the past. Agonizing over the past is like carrying around roadkill. And given the statistics on the adverse effects of stress on health, harboring a grudge or worrying excessively can subtract years from your life.
Don’t let the past control your present. You’ll never move forward by looking backward.
In the race of life, don’t risk stumbling by constantly looking over your own shoulder. Keep your gaze straight ahead.
Whatever your personal race may involve — religion, relationships, school, family or careers — the sure way to make progress is to keep moving forward at all costs.
