TURN UP THE HEAT Local Chef, Worldwide Competition

BY kaitlyn peacock | PHOTO BY BARA'AH JARAISEH

Here in Pensacola, if you want good food, you don’t have to look very far. Downtown Pensacola is brimming with a whole host of wonderful eateries from al Fresco’s food trucks to the upscale Jackson’s Steakhouse and everything in between. But now, one Pensacola chef is taking their talents and competitive skills to the big league. Alex Carmona, the executive chef at V. Paul’s, will take part in the upcoming World Food Championship, Oct. 16 to 20 in Dallas, Texas. Carmona will be part of a two-man team where he will assist one of last year’s champions Nick Rickman. Carmona’s love of food was inspired by his mother, who he describes as being the best chef he’s ever worked under. His mother taught him at an early age to appreciate good food and gave him a strong foundation for his future culinary career. “My mom is a huge cook,” Carmona said. “When I was growing up, she was like my own little Gordon Ramsay. She was always yelling at me like ‘That’s not a tablespoon!’ She’s really funny.” After writing papers about wanting to become a chef in the third and fourth grade, Carmona went to the Pensacola State College for their culinary program and had his dream become a reality. Carmona has previously served as the executive chef at the Wine Bar here in Pensacola, as sous chef at the Wolf Bay Lodge in Alabama and even spent some time in the kitchen at V. Paul’s. After spending some time out of state, he returned and was offered the executive chef position at V. Paul’s, where he has been in January of this year. At age 25, he’s the youngest in the kitchen next only to his sous chef, who is 26, and is one of the youngest executive chefs in all of Pensacola. Despite his young age, Carmona came into V. Paul’s at a time when the restaurant was struggling and has implemented some changes that has brought it back to being one of the leading dining experi-

ences on Palafox. As executive chef, he leads a team of up to eight people during busy hours in the kitchen. Even though he is the youngest in the kitchen, he said that doesn’t really matter to the others. They work well together, and he thoroughly enjoys his time spent with so many other experienced chefs. “The best part of being in a position like that is actually the teaching aspect,” Carmona said. “When you get to teach people how to break down fish and how to handle large pieces of meat and why we do thing the way we do. When you get people who watch and actually appreciate it, even if they are older than me or however it works, people pick up on that and they love it and they really, really appreciate that you take that time out to work with them.” Since becoming executive chef, Carmona said he has taken great strides to honor the classic Italian roots of the restaurant. During his high school years, he was lucky enough to visit Rome, where he got an up close look and taste of real Italian food. He said he was inspired by the freshness of the food and with just how many things people could do with a tomato. That trip sparked a love of Italian food in particular that has served him well at the restaurant. “I like to get down and cook all the food. I still love to do all that,” Carmona said. “My position in the restaurant and the fact that I have a staff doesn’t make it any different. I still want to be using my hands and I still want to know what’s going on.” In the restaurant and his personal cooking, Carmona said he focuses on that freshness he remembers from his trip to Italy. To achieve this, he shops locally for many of the ingredients at the restaurant, including paying a few visits to Palafox Market and connecting with a local farmer. “When I was taught to make food, I

was taught from a fresh standpoint,” Carmona said. “The idea is you taste every single thing in the dish, and it should all stand out but it should be balanced. There should be tangy, there should be sweet, there should be savory. I try to involve every single element of your taste buds in every single dish.” While also pursuing a career as an executive chef, Carmona has also had the chance to participate in several cooking competition. While usually competing with a large team, Carmona had the chance to shine in a local food competition where he competed with his sous chef Daniel Williams. Carmona won the competition against some of Pensacola’s finest chefs, and after the competition, he was approached by Rickman. Impressed by his talent, Rickman asked Carmona to join him for the 2019 World Food Competition. Carmona said at first he didn’t believe Rickman, thinking it must be some kind of joke, but soon found out it wasn’t a joke. In no time at all, he was on the road to Dallas. The World Food Championship is an annual international cooking competition held in various cities around the world. Leading up to the competition, chefs go head to head in smaller challenges to qualify for the championship. There are several categories that the chefs can compete in, including barbecue, seafood, original recipe, chef and others. The championship is a tournament-style competition, starting with hundreds of teams from all over the world. Over the three-day competition, the best of the best are found, leading to a face off between the top 10 on the last day. The winner at the end is crowned champion of their category, with a prize of $10,000. In the months after the competition, the ten category champions then come back for a second round where the overall champion is decided. Rickman was the champion of the

WE’RE SOCIAL

Chef category last year, but had competed in the World Food Championship beforehand, landing third place in the Steak category the year before his win. At the competition between the category champions, known as the Final Table, he earned second place. He is the executive chef at The Salt Block in Marianna, Florida. This year, Rickman is aiming to defend his champion title against 300 other teams in the Chef category. Carmona will act as his sous chef during the competition. Preparing for the competition, Carmona said he and Rickman have met to discuss strategies, but mostly he has been preparing by studying. A lot of studying. “I probably have 30 or 40 cookbooks on all different kinds of cuisines that I’ve been reading over,” he said. “You never know, there might be something from one cookbook you want to put with something from another cookbook. You might make the same recipe all the time but you read someone else’s recipe of the same thing and there’s one difference that makes it perfect. You might blend recipes and you might play with a lot of things, and that’s kind of what I’ve been doing.” Being able to represent not only himself but Pensacola on an international stage, standing next to the returning champion, Carmona said has been the highlight of his culinary career. “It’s an incredible feeling. Just to be part of it is incredible. With it being international and to be able to represent where I’m from is incredible as well,” Carmona said. “I never thought I’d be in this position, especially so young. To be on a large, global scale like that with so many other great chefs, I just can’t wait.” As for his confidence, well Carmona doesn’t seem all too worried about the world-class chefs he will be competing against. “Oh, I already know we are going to win,” he said.

Pensacola’s Pathways for Change Doubles Success Rate of National Prison Rehabilitation Pensacola, Fla.–October 4, 2019– Pensacola-based non-profit, Pathways for Change (PFC), provides solutions to America’s crime problems by offering an alternative sentencing option for offenders that can be used by judges, prosecutors, public defenders and private attorneys. PFC is hosting its October 10th graduation at the Studer Community Institute so Judges and lawyers can experience the positive impact PFC has on the transformation of its clients. The hourlong ceremony leaves a feeling of hope for those who have been lost in addiction and the criminal justice system. Pathways for Change would love to share the stories of SEVEN clients who will graduate from the 18-month program at 5:30 p.m. in the Studer Community Institute Building, 220 West Garden Street. “Currently, one in every 100 Americans will be incarcerated sometime within their life,” said Connie Bookman, PFC Founder & CEO. “Sixty-eight percent of those who are incarcerated eventually will be arrested again and return to trial and jail or prison. With the alternative of PFC, a 9-month, 12-month, or 18-month program is available to those convicted of misdemeanors or felonies with substance abuse problems, and with this population, we have proven that recidivism can be cut to only thirty percent.”

PFC is successful because it’s Men’s Residential Treatment Center Program breaks the typical revolving-door pattern of arrest, sentencing, release, and re-arrest. PFC identifies how inmates will respond to a program of intensive instruction, behavior modification, and counseling. Research shows that 70 percent of inmates who successfully complete a PFC program are not re-arrested after release. The program is also less expensive than incarceration in a county jail or state prison. The cost of rehabilitating each inmate through PFC is $10,000 annually, less than the $25,500 it costs to house county jail and prison inmates. Half the cost, twice the success, a good return on investment. Though PFC does not discriminate based on age, race, national origin, religious or sexual orientation, not all inmates are eligible. Those entering the program must be approved by the judicial system, they must be non-violent, non-sex offender, male lawbreakers diagnosed as substance dependent and who are willing to attempt to restructure their lives through a faith-based therapeutic community. Bookman attributes the success of PFC to a highly structured three-phase process involving individual and group therapy by clinical professionals, as well

Christmas at the Clinic event will be held Tuesday, November 19 at Artel Gallery at 223 Palafox Place on Pensacola at 6:00 pm. The cost to attend the Gala is $50 per person. To purchase tickets follow the link at https://www. eventbrite.com/e/christmas-at-the-clinic-tickets-70962489717.

The evening will include a Silent Auction of the trees and wreaths, along with a Live Auction emceed by Marty Stanovich of The First Tee of Northwest Florida. At the Gala, enjoy hors d’oeuvres from The Fish House, Szotski’s cheesecakes & desserts, and a silent auction for the opportunity to bid on the beautiful trees and wreaths. Proceeds from the Gala benefit the Health and Hope Clinic, a volunteer and donor-driven medical and dental clinic to help meet the needs of the uninsured in Escambia County/Pensacola.. Sponsorships, both personal and cor-

porate, are essential to the success of Christmas at the Clinic. The opportunities to support Christmas at the Clinic are nearly endless, from in-kind sponsorships of goods or services to monetary sponsorships. For a complete sponsorship packet, please contact Sally Bergosh, sbergosh@healthandhopeclinic.org. About the Health and Hope Clinic – The Health and Hope Clinic was established in June 2003 to help meet the needs of the uninsured and medically underserved in our community. Health and Hope Clinic is a volunteer and donor-driven medical and dental clinic. Last year alone, we provided 2.5 million dollars in Medical and dental services. We did this through our 200 volunteers, including 70 of our licensed providers. The clinic’s goal is to provide accessible and equitable primary medical, dental and preventive care to those in need. Health and Hope Clinic relies on the generosity of its contributors and volunteers to accomplish its mission of “providing health and hope to the hurting.”

as instruction and guidance to assist offenders in gaining the skills necessary to function in society. “This is not a ‘GetOut-of-Jail-Free’ card,” said Bookman. Additionally, family members are required to be involved in the process and receive counseling as well. “Pathways for Change makes a difference not only in the inmate who goes through the program, but it can have a far-reaching affect on families. Currently, 80 percent of children expelled from school have at least one parent who is incarcerated. That is the kind of destructive cycle this program can help break.” PFC accepts up to 30 offenders at once who live in a military-style, barracks atmosphere with bunk beds, classroom areas, and workout facilities. Funding comes from contributions from the Escambia Board of County Commissioners, Destin Charity Wine Auction Foundation, and a plethora of other local donations. Restricted by the amount of available funding, PFC remains the only court-ordered program within a 500-mile radius and is one of only five percent nationwide that are faith-based. Additional Facts: •Nearly 700,000 offenders are released from prison nationwide every year. •Of those released, two-thirds who are sentenced by traditional means are re-ar-

rested for serious and/or violent offenses within three years. •Only 30 percent of inmates who graduate from PFC re-offend and are rearrested, much less than the 68 percent recidivism rate of those released from county jails and state prisons. •The cost of incarceration is $25,500 annually in the county jail. The cost of rehabilitation through PFC is $10,000 per inmate, annually. •Graduates of the PFC program in Escambia County, saves taxpayers over $1 million per year. •Without programs such as PFC, recidivism is likely, as many offenders face challenges such as physical and mental health issues, addiction, lack of education and job skills, and return to the same environment. •Currently, one out of 100 people are incarcerated some time during their life, and 80 percent of children who are expelled from school have a parent who is incarcerated. •PFC remains the only court-ordered program within a 500-mile radius and is one of only five percent nationwide that are faith-based •America has a higher percentage of its citizens in prison than any other advanced nation

Real ID enforcement begins October 1, 2020 Escambia County Tax Collector Scott Lunsford reminds travelers that beginning Oct. 1, 2020, every traveler must present a Real ID-compliant driver license or identification card, or another acceptable form of identification, to fly within the United States. As of Oct. 1, 2020, individuals who are unable to produce a Real ID-compliant credential or other acceptable form of identification, such as a valid passport, federal government PIV card or US military ID, will not be permitted to enter a TSA checkpoint and will not be allowed to fly. The Real ID Act passed by Congress in 2005 establishes the minimum-security standards for state-issued driver licenses and identification cards and prohibits federal agencies, like TSA, from accepting licenses and identification cards for certain official purposes, including boarding federally-regulated commercial aircraft, entering secure federal buildings and visiting military installations. Although Florida is a compliant state, if a citizen has a non-compliant driver license or identification card, he or she will be required to show a second form of identification to board a plane

or access these federal facilities. It is simple to check your compliance. If your driver license or identification card has a gold star in the upper right corner, you are Real ID compliant. If your credential does not have the gold star and expires within the next 18 months, visit EscambiaTaxCollector.com to make an appointment to renew. In Escambia County, 87 percent of driver licenses and 97 percent of identification cards are Real ID compliant, leaving almost 33,000 Escambia County records that are not Real ID compliant. Becoming Real ID compliant is easy. Just bring the following documents to your appointment: • Identification (bring one) - Current valid US passport - Certified US birth certificate - U.S. Certificate of Naturalization - Consular Proof of Birth Abroad (FS-240 or FS 545) • Name change(s) since birth - Valid U.S. passport with correct name - Certified proof of legal name change(s) (i.e., marriage certificate, adoption, legal name change, court order). All documents presented must be certi-

fied. Documents must link birth record to current name. • Social Security number - Social Security card - Medicare or Medicaid card with full name and Social Security number - Pay stub showing full Social Security number • Residential address (not post office box) - bring two with complete matching addresses - Deed, mortgage, payment booklet or lease - Florida vehicle registration, title, utility bill, cell phone bill • Previous license if not lost or destroyed • Non-U.S. citizens – all nonU.S. citizens must present proof of lawful presence - Immigrants * Green card (Form I551) - Non-immigrants * Valid employment authorization card (Form I-688B or I-766) Also, parents can obtain a Real ID-compliant identification card for their children ages five and up.

DESANTIS WANTS TO BOOST TEACHER MINIMUM PAY Ana Ceballos NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE --- Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to raise the minimum salary of Florida teachers to $47,500, a proposal that would cost hundreds of millions of dollars and likely will be a key issue during the upcoming 2020 legislative session. The governor had hinted for months that he was developing a teacher-compensation package, and he unveiled the $603 million plan Monday alongside two powerful allies: Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran and Senate budget chief Rob Bradley. “If you look at ways you can make an impact in students’ achievement … having a great teacher in front of the students is really the best thing you can do,” DeSantis said during a news conference at Middleburg High School in Clay County. The most effective way of ensuring that happens, he said, is by having a higher minimum salary. The governor said his proposal would lead to a boost in pay for more than 100,000 teachers statewide. When asked later at an appearance at a Broward County school why he opted to raise the minimum salary and not overall average salaries for educators, DeSantis said the plan would affect “60 percent of teachers” and have the most impact.

“This proposal, if enacted, would take us from the bottom half of states in terms of starting salary to the top five of states in starting salaries,” DeSantis said during the Clay County event. The Florida Education Association statewide teachers union issued a news release saying it was “encouraged to hear Gov. Ron DeSantis make clear that teacher pay matters to his administration.” But it also raised questions about how the plan would be funded and what it would do to help retain longstanding teachers. “We thank the governor for opening a dialogue on salaries and for acknowledging that our teachers are woefully underpaid,” union President Fedrick Ingram said in a prepared statement. “Raising minimum starting pay is a beginning. We still hope to hear about what Gov. DeSantis plans to do to retain experienced teachers who have devoted years to their students, and about how his administration will provide fair, competitive pay for all the people essential to our schools --- bus drivers, paraprofessionals, food-service workers, office staff, custodial personnel and others.” During DeSantis’ appearances Monday to announce the salary proposal, House Republican leaders were noticeably absent. House Speaker Jose Oliva, R-Miami Lakes, released a statement late Monday after-

noon saying he was “in receipt” of the governor’s plan and the “over $2B ($2 billion) of new spending requests from his agencies.” “The legislative process will properly vet these among all other state concerns,” Oliva said. “My initial thought is one of gratitude for those who came before us and saw it fit to bind us and all future legislatures to a balanced budget.” Florida ranked 27th in the nation for average teacher starting pay during the 2017-2018 school year at $37,636, according to the National Education Association. The national average starting salary was $39,249. The state’s overall average teacher pay in 2017-2018 topped $48,000, but educators have long called for higher salaries as Florida has ranked near the bottom nationally. The state’s schools receive much of their funding through a complicated formula, and county school boards ultimately negotiate contracts with teachers. But the Republicandominated Legislature in recent years also has emphasized bonus programs for teachers, including putting in state law the controversial “Best and Brightest” bonus program. That program, however, could be in peril during the 2020 session, which starts Jan. 14. During the past month, DeSantis has called the bonus program “very complicated”

and suggested it might not necessarily be part of his education agenda for the session. Also, Bradley, the powerful chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, has filed a bill that would repeal the bonus program from state law. However, it remains to be seen whether DeSantis will back eliminating the program. “He hasn’t told me his position on my bill,” Bradley, RFleming Island, told The News Service of Florida in a text message Monday. Bradley’s bill was filed after the state agreed to pay $15.5 million to settle a class-action lawsuit that focused on allegations that the bonus program discriminated against black and Hispanic teachers. Those allegations stemmed from the state’s past use of teachers’ scores on ACT and SAT college-entrance exams in helping determine whether teachers should receive bonuses. This spring, the Republican-dominated Legislature and DeSantis moved to do away with that test requirement While Bradley is spearheading the push to repeal the program, Corcoran and some key Republican lawmakers who oversee education policies in the House have continued to support Best and Brightest. House Education Chairwoman Jennifer Sullivan, R-Mount Dora, said last month that while she hopes to see acrossthe-board salary increases, “if you are talking about salary in-

JUDGE DIGS INTO FELONS VOTING LAW Dara Kam NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE --- A federal judge appeared highly critical Monday of aspects of a new law aimed at carrying out a constitutional amendment that restored voting rights to felons, questioning whether one portion of the law was designed to discourage people from registering to vote. The law implemented a November constitutional amendment that granted voting-rights restoration to felons “who have completed all terms of their sentence, including parole or probation,” excluding people “convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense.” Voting rights advocates and civil rights groups filed a federal lawsuit shortly after Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the law (SB 7066), which requires felons to pay “legal financial obligations,” such as restitution, fines and fees, to be eligible to have voting rights restored. The plaintiffs allege that linking finances and voting rights amounts to an unconstitutional “poll tax.” They also contend that the state is unable to uniformly or consistently apply the law, in part due to record-keeping problems and because DeSantis’ administration has provided “no guidance” on how to carry it out. The state expects plaintiffs “to do … what the state cannot,” in ascertaining the financial obligations, Julie Ebenstein, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation of Florida, told U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle during a hearing Monday. Plaintiffs are asking Hinkle to block the portion of the law requiring payment of legal financial obligations. The law will have “an immediate and irreparable effect on individuals who simply lack the resources” to procure court documents, if the records even exist, Ebenstein argued. But Nicholas Primrose, a lawyer representing DeSantis, told Hinkle the new law does not violate the U.S. Constitution. “Plaintiffs are attempting to make this case about criminal justice reform,” Primrose argued, adding that “this case is not the place” for that debate. The new law and what appeared as

Amendment 4 on the November ballot put felons “in a substantially better position than one year ago,” Primrose said. Dan Smith, a University of Florida political-science professor, testified about a “big data” analysis in which Smith examined records from the Department of Corrections and county clerks of court. Smith discovered that, of more than 500,000 felons who had completed their time behind bars or on probation or parole, more than 80 percent owed between $500 and $5,000 in some sort of legal financial obligation. Smith said he discovered a racial disparity in which blacks were more likely to owe outstanding fees, fines or restitution by about eight percentage points over whites. Smith also spoke of the difficulty in gathering the data. For example, county clerks --- who keep track of court fees and fines --- do not maintain records about restitution. That’s something corrections officials monitor. Hinkle noted that, as a judge, he’s had problems with state court sentencing documents. “It’s often very difficult to figure out what somebody was convicted of and what the terms of the sentence were,” the judge said. Smith called the endeavor “the most difficult effort I’ve undertaken in almost 30 years as a political scientist.” Felons who testified Monday backed up Smith’s experience. Their lawyers displayed pages of court documents that showed conflicting amounts of fees, fines and costs, when the records could be found. Rosemary McCoy owes more than $6,000 in restitution, which she said was converted to a civil lien at the time she was sentenced. McCoy said she can’t pay the restitution because, as a convicted felon, she’s had a hard time getting regular employment. McCoy, who is black, choked back tears when her lawyers asked her about the importance of voting, saying hers was one of the first black families to integrate an all-white neighborhood in Duval County. “When they moved in, the white folks started moving out. Services

stopped,” McCoy said. McCoy said she registered to vote and cast a ballot in a municipal election, prior to the new law going into effect July 1. “I voted. … The world didn’t come to an end. People went to work the next day,” she said, appealing directly to Hinkle. “I’m asking your honor --please.” George Meros, a lawyer representing Florida Secretary of State Laurel Lee, asked McCoy whether her ballot was counted after she voted in May. McCoy said she believed it was, prompting Hinkle to question the state’s lawyer. “The secretary of state asserts that it’s OK for her to vote, even though she has unpaid restitution of $6,000 and is a convicted felon?” the judge asked. “Yes,” Meros replied. But Meros later reversed himself, saying that felons with outstanding legal obligations would not be prosecuted if they had “an honest and credible belief” that they were eligible to vote. That position drew a rebuke from Hinkle. “The secretary of state thinks ignorance of the law is an excuse?” Hinkle asked, pressing Meros to explain how the state would “bind” state attorneys to adhere to that philosophy. “I’ve got to tell you the assertion doesn’t ring true at all,” the judge said, adding that law enforcement ordinarily “does not need evidence of what’s going on in the mind” of an individual to make an arrest. Hinkle also scolded the plaintiffs’ lawyers following McCoy’s testimony, which sounded at times like a stump speech in favor of allowing felons to vote. “Most of that testimony was inadmissible,” the judge chided. “If you can’t win the case on the merits, you can’t win the case. … If you think you can persuade me that even though the law’s not on your side I’m going to rule for you, you got the wrong guy.” But the judge’s harshest observations about the law came during a discussion about guidelines for a new voter registration form. Under the old law, voters had to check a statement saying, “I affirm that

creases, you also have to take a look at our bonus program, and that is the Best and Brightest program.” DeSantis said Monday in Broward County that he is working with Corcoran on a possible “revamped” teacher bonus program. Last month, during a State Board of Education meeting, Corcoran said “bonuses will always be a factor because you have to make differentiations when they are justified.” Corcoran, however, said Monday the governor’s new proposal would be “transformative” for Florida, which is dealing with a teacher shortage. He said raising the base salary would help schools retain and attract new teachers. Lawmakers will consider the potentially popular plan as dozens of them run for reelection in 2020. But the plan also comes as state economists have warned about a possible economic slowdown and a relatively small budget surplus next fiscal year. DeSantis said his proposal will fit “neatly” within a budget proposal he will release before the session. When asked how it would be funded, DeSantis said “there is enough general revenue funding” to pay for the initiative. “I am happy that this is something that is not pie in the sky. This is achievable, so we have to get this done,” he added.

I am not a convicted felon, or if I am, my rights related to voting have been restored.” But the law passed this spring revised what is known as the “uniform statewide voter registration application,” to include three “affirmation” statements: “(a) “I affirm I have never been convicted of a felony,” (b) “If I have been convicted of a felony, I affirm that my voting rights have been restored by the Board of Executive Clemency,” or (c) “If I have been convicted of a felony, I affirm my voting rights have been restored pursuant to s. 4, Art. VI of the State Constitution upon the completion of all terms of my sentence, including parole or probation.” Hinkle asked Leon County Supervisor of Elections Mark Earley about the new voter registration form, which Earley said he is not using. “That new form doesn’t work for some people who are eligible” to vote, the judge said, prompting Earley to acknowledge the questions are “confusing.” “Not just confusing,” Hinkle said, pointing out that people who were convicted of felonies and had their rights restored in other states would be unable to answer “yes” to any of the affirmations, even though they would be eligible to vote. Hinkle asked Earley how many people know what “s-period-four, art-six of the state Constitution” means. “Essentially none,” the elections official said. “How many people in this room do you think knew that before they got hired to handle this case?” a sarcastic Hinkle asked. Hinkle, who will hear closing arguments in the case at 8 a.m., asked Earley if the wording of the new form was designed to encourage people to register to vote. “If you wanted people to apply, this is not the language,” Earley said. Hinkle noted that the new form “embarrasses everyone” who registers to vote, then posed another rhetorical question. “If you’re trying to discourage people to register to vote, would you choose language like this?” he asked.

GROUP TRIES TO KEEP FOCUS ON MICHAEL RECOVERY jim turner News Service of Florida TALLAHASSEE – Leaders of a group formed after Hurricane Michael last year are trying to keep state and national attention focused on stormravaged parts of Northwest Florida, while also facing questions about the exit from the group of former Congresswoman Gwen Graham because of critical tweets aimed at Gov. Ron DeSantis. Rebuild 850 leaders during a news conference Thursday pointed to a need for more affordable housing, building materials and volunteers as the region approaches the one-year anniversary of the Category 5 hurricane. “This was a big story of the day for a brief period of time,” said Ron Sachs, CEO of Tallahassee-based Sachs Media Group who helped organize Rebuild 850. “Because it’s a population-challenged region, keeping the focus on the region was going to be the mission of this organization, more than money, more than

volunteer time, more than investments.” Hurricane Michael battered the region on Oct. 10, 2018, causing up to $17 billion in economic losses, with insured losses now at $6.9 billion. But it was quickly eclipsed in news cycles outside the Panhandle by last fall’s state elections. The concern is that the attention never returned. “Don’t let us be forgotten,” Sen. Bill Montford, a Tallahassee Democrat who represents hard-hit areas and is expected to replace Graham as a co-chair of Rebuild 850. “That’s the fear we have right now is that we cannot let Florida forget this unique part of the state.” Noting that people are still living in tents and homes covered by blue tarps, Rebuild 850 – named after the region’s telephone area code – encourages people, organizations and corporations to donate through Volunteer Florida toward the recovery effort. Rebuild 850 Co-Chairman Allan Bense, a former Republican House Speaker

from Panama City, said while 20,000 to 30,000 people have relocated outside the eightcounty region directly impacted by the storm, the lack of affordable housing continues to hamper recovery efforts. Volunteer Florida CEO Clay Ingram, a former Republican lawmaker from Pensacola, said approximately $7 million in donations have been received for the recovery, with about $510,000 directly attributed to the Rebuild 850 effort. The group, however, has faced questions this week about Graham’s departure. In a series of tweets on Sept. 26, Graham labeled DeSantis a “mini” President Donald Trump and an “acolyte” of the president. “Floridians, please pay attention, not to the spin, but to what the Governor is actually doing. Actions speak louder than words,” she tweeted in reference to a Tampa Bay Times report on the Cabinet’s approval of John MacIver, a Tallahassee lawyer who’s the head of the local Federalist Society, as chief judge of the

state’s Division of Administrative Hearings. Rebuild 850 leaders said Thursday they appreciated Graham’s work, but they don’t want her exit to be a distraction. “This is not a partisan organization,” said Rebuild 850 Co-Chairman Will Weatherford, a former Republican House speaker from Wesley Chapel. “She has every right to feel the need to be partisan in her way. But that is not what we’re about. That, in and of itself, was a distraction. We’re focused on these efforts. She’s still welcomed to be a part of it. But she can’t be a face of it if she wants to be partisan.” Graham, who ran for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination last year, announced her resignation from Rebuild 850 in a tweet Monday. Sachs said he had discussed with Graham in August her use of Twitter and the intent of Rebuild 850 to be non-partisan. “No one is trying to mute Gwen Graham or silence her,

she’s entitled to her opinion,” Sachs said. “What she tweeted last week, in my view, crossed the line.” In a series of tweets on Monday Graham called the conversation with Sachs difficult for both of them but that she wasn’t going to cut back on expressing her opinions. “Yesterday, a friend called to tell me that because I have been tough on our new Governor – calling him out on Twitter and Facebook for policies I believe are harmful to Florida – I will no longer continue as co-chair of Rebuild 850,” Graham tweeted. Graham said she would continue working for people in the region who are suffering. “I will continue to do all I can to be a voice both in Florida and with my former colleagues in Congress, on behalf of those still living under tarps and in campers, suffering from depression and PTSD, waiting for insurance corporations to let them know the status of their claims,” Graham tweeted.

UNDERGROUND POWER LINES PLAN MOVES FORWARD jim saunders News Service of Florida TALLAHASSEE – State regulators moved forward Thursday with a new law aimed at building more underground power lines and making Florida’s electric system better able to withstand punishing hurricanes. The Florida Public Service Commission approved proposed rules to carry out the law, which is expected to lead to residents and businesses paying more in their electric bills for stormprotection projects. Deputy Public Counsel Charles Rehwinkel, whose office represents consumers in utility issues, described the rule-making as the “most significant in a generation” because of issues such as potential costs over time that could total hundreds of millions or billions of dollars. A key part of the law, passed during the spring legislative session, will change how storm-protection projects, including underground power lines, are financed. That change is expected to lead to more projects, which supporters say should help reduce outages and hold down restoration expenses after storms – but also will lead to upfront costs for customers. “In the short run, you’re going to see, we believe, increases in bills,” Rehwinkel said. Public Service Commission Chairman Art Graham issued a statement after Thursday’s approval of the proposed rules and said they will help electric systems better handle severe storms. The law applies to Florida Power & Light, Duke Energy Florida, Tampa Electric Co., Gulf Power and Florida Public Utilities Co. “Utilities’ investment in storm hardening strengthens Florida’s grid to reduce power outages and speed restoration after a storm,” Graham said. “The proposed storm protection plan rules will further protect Florida’s consumers, including those most vulnerable.” Under the law, utilities will be able each year to seek approval from the commission to collect money from customers for storm-protection projects, such as building underground power lines. In the past, such projects have generally been financed through base electric rates, which are set for a number of years and include a wide range of utility expenses. Utilities will have to file 10-year plans with the commission about bolstering storm protection. But the proposed rules approved Thursday drew

debate, in part, because of questions about information utilities should have to provide about projects during the first three years. Commission staff members recommended that utilities should initially provide detailed information about projects planned for all three years, but Florida Power & Light contended that such details should only be required for projects in the first year. FPL, backed by other utilities, said information submitted initially about projects planned for the second and third years should be broader, such as estimated numbers of projects and estimated costs. The utilities would then come back annually with detailed plans for the next year. Kenneth Rubin, an attorney for FPL, said plans can change because of a variety of factors and that utilities need flexibility. He also cautioned about “customer dissatisfaction” if a utility had to change plans and eliminate specific projects that had previously been disclosed for the second and third years. “We certainly don’t want to be locked in for years two and three because we identified certain projects in year one,” Rubin said. But Rehwinkel said the Office of Public Counsel felt strongly about needing detailed information about the second and third years. That stemmed, in part, from concerns that utilities could collect money under the law for projects whose costs also are being passed on to customers through base rates. The office in a late-August filing described such a situation as “double recovery of the same costs.” The Public Service Commission sided with FPL and the other utilities on the issue. Commissioner Julie Brown, for example, pointed to the “speculative” nature of the second and third years of projects. Another point of contention in the proposed rules centered on whether utilities should be able to recover projected costs of the storm-hardening projects – or whether they should have to wait until work is done to start billing customers. The commission agreed with a staff recommendation to allow collection of projected costs, similar to what utilities are already able to do with certain other types of costs. After work is finished, the projected and actual costs are compared in what is known as a “true-up” process, with adjustments then made to customers’ bills.
