Walton County Mosquito Control Commissioner Arrested

Hey guy's and gals you can get on a list by the department of Agriculture to be notified if someone sprays certain chemicals within a set distance of your home. I dont remember all the criteria but i can get the info thursday if anyones interested but i do know it includes any company's that use those chemicals including lawn pest and household pest control companies so you may get several calls.

Hey all there was also talk earlier about gary D being able to come back because of Burke's vote would be cancelled because of him not living in Walton county then the vote would be 1 to 1. not to sure what would happen but that's the talk in the mosquitoe control world

Interesting. Having five commissioners might help out in situations like that. Just curious if Gary would get a new contract paying only $60K, or would he actually get another increase in salary, on top of the $100K+?

So since he was "illegally" elected all his decisions and votes are now null & void?

I thought the last time the issue of his residency was brought up he claimed he had an apartment over Dave's Glass.

This could be some real interesting stuff. The vote was not renew and not to negotiate to renew. Yet the contract had a termination date so it cancelled on its own. But if every decision that would call into question every 2-1 vote in which Burke sided with the majority. Very interesting question indeed.

He is still claiming this. Claimed it on the evening news. Says it is all a "misunderstanding" due to the fact that his wife owns property in PCB. :roll:

As I understand it, Charles had claimed that his residence was at a Walton County property which was deeded to his wife, with whom he doesn't live. I'll let the State discern the truth behind this one.

The PCB NBC affiliate just stated that his listed address was Dave's Glass and didn't mention anything about an apartment up top.

He just got married, but his wife lives in another county?

Forget Mosquito Control, he could make $$ teaching other men how to swing that!

Hey I sued Magee,
but first, I put out to the press about the 116k director. Then they put a 19.46% budget cut on the table (I know a "good deal" when I see it) and I was the deciding vote on the budget cut.

The nicest thing I can say the director is, he had no people skills. My vote saved another 50k at least. Hell his salery was over 10% of the budget!

and me and the wife ? absence makes the hart grow fonder !

Oh, and Magee is using the boards atty for his wifes mothers probate case (he admitted to this on tape) and for his business.

2006 SWMCD spent $1450. dollars on atty fees
2007 ? over $7000.

Gary (former director) and magee have also "fixed Bids" I know, I researched it. And they fooled me into voteing for it.

I was duly elected to this board, by the taxpayers, and I will cotinue to represent them!

Charlie Burke "A working man, working for you!"

Oh, and I could use a litte help here, How about showing up at the SWMCD meetings ?

Public particapation is a big influance on a 3 member board

Oh, my! It isn't too often that we have the pleasure of hearing directly from the people who are making the nightly news. Chime in more often Charlie! We have many questions about Mosquito Control in WalCo.

OK, you know that stuff we spray, same thing you wash your dog with.

You mean that ya'll don't lock the door? :funn: I've been to Mosquito Control to hear a bunch of garbage, and never had the opportunity to ask questions, due to the Chairman (not sure if that is right) saying that the meeting was over and he had things to do. This was the "citizens" information meeting, where we were supposed to be able to learn. A few scientists gave a shpeel, and the meeting quickly ended when we began to ask questions.

OK, you know that stuff we spray, same thing you wash your dog with.

I use my homemade soap and, or, Dr Bronner's Soap for washing my dogs. It is saponified oils, and has no poisons in it. However, if you include them playing in the Bay or Gulf as part of bathing, you are right about it being the same stuff, since the poisons also go into both the Bay and the Gulf from the Poison Spraying trucks, and the previously used in Walton County, Dog Fly plane.

I refused to sit with the board in that meeting. That dog & pony show was a set up by gary and magee.

hell, the meeting was loaded with MCD people from across the state, locals could hardly get a seat!

I am sorry for that, not the way I would do business.

After the meeting, I had lunch with the "non toxic" speakers. next meeting I was acused of violating lobbyest laws by magees wife!

I was just notified that the Governor has signed an executive order suspending Charlie Burke from office.

Dr. Bronners is my favorite Almond and peppermint especially.

I don't know Charlie, but I do know he always calls it like he sees it. I doubt very many people like that...

I heard someone was getting a kick back from "Raid" and "Off" Shameful!

Now all that has to happen is that the sheriff will hire an attorney, find the 1856 Mosquito Act (Never used since its conception) and he will then magically create a new Walton County Sheriff?s Office policy that places control of the Mosquito Commission and its employees, (with the exception of ANY Pregnant Women) under his jurisdiction. Charlie will have his job back in a week.

Obviously you are upset about Bill Imfeld not being a legal candidate for Sheriff due to the Federal Laws. If you are trying to make an analogy, it is very flawed.

I am upset that the best candidate for the job will not get a chance to hold the position, that is correct. I am also of the opinion that the Federal Law does not apply, but what do I know, it was not my decision to make.

As for the analogy, it was a Joke, I found it funny, you spent the time to reply to it. Thanks.
