Historic Pensacola Haunted

House Walking & Trolley Tours

October is the best time of year for eerie encounters along Northwest Florida’s infamous “ghost coast.” You never know when or where you may experience something frighteningly freaky that boggles your mind, especially in downtown Pensacola. UWF

Historic Trust continues the tradition of offering the Haunted House Walking and Trolley Tours the two weekends before Halloween every year. With four different itineraries to choose from, tour guides will lead you

on a stroll through downtown’s grave past as you learn about Intendencia Street’s murderous mayhem, Seville Square’s cornucopia of spooks and specters and South Palafox’s deadly bars and brothels (for adults only).

Tours will be offered October 13, 14, 21, 27 and 28 with various time slots available for each of the tours. Each tour lasts approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.

The Purgatorium Haunted Attraction

Following a short hiatus, The Purgatorium haunted attraction is making a return just in time for spooky season! Spanning across 2 acres, this westside classic attracts around 200 to 300 fear-seekers each night and up 1,000 on Halloween alone. From ghouls that jump out at every turn to insanely-terrifying characters that come after those who dare to enter, this year’s all-new layout features even more nightmarish fun! Depending on the night, The Purgatorium normally has anywhere from 30 to 70 people dressed up in a variety of ghoulish costumes and get-ups to help supply the scares. The property includes a small structure out front that once served as a plant nursery, but it’s behind the structure where the real attraction lurks. Paying victims will wander through a creepy maze that leads to different worlds filled with things from only your worst nightmares. The Purgatorium will be open October 13, 14, 20, 21, 27, 28 and 31 from 7 pm to midnight and is located at 6615 W. Jackson St. in Pensacola.

PARKS AND RECREATION, PENSACOLA SPORTS TO HOST OCT. 18 RIBBON CUTTING

Escambia County Parks and Recreation and Pensacola Sports will host a ribbon cutting for a new facility at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 18, at the Ashton Brosnaham Soccer Complex, 10370 Ashton Brosnaham Dr. One or more Escambia County Commissioners may be in attendance.

Parks and Recreation recently completed work on a new two-story facility at the soccer complex, which will serve as additional locker room space for the SEC Women’s Soccer Tournament and other sporting events. Features at the facility include restrooms and showers for team sports use, an open space with sliding walls on the first floor, and meeting and office spaces on the second floor. The open space on the first floor will be available for rent and can be used for meetings, birthday parties and other events.

“We have an incredible team in our Parks department who understand the value recreation brings to our quality of life in Escambia County,” said Parks and Recreation Director Michael Rhodes. “Contractors and our staff have worked hard to finish this new building in time for the 2023 SEC tournament, and I am incredibly proud we could meet this timeline. Additionally, we have made improvements to our soccer turf that will not only fit the needs of the elite athletes in the Southeastern Conference but will also benefit the local soccer players along with our local colleges. Last, we certainly want to thank Pensacola Sports for their continued teamwork in bringing this level of events to Escambia County. This could not be done without their support. We can’t wait for the 2023 second edition of the SEC Soccer Tournament, beginning October 29.”

The Ashton Brosnaham Soccer Complex will serve as the location for the Southeastern Conference Women’s Soccer Tournament for the second year in a row, Oct. 29-Nov. 5. The 2022 event saw record-breaking attendance numbers and generated $2.5 million in local economic impact.

“I’m thrilled with the work our Parks department has done at Ashton Brosnaham over the last year,” said District 5 Commissioner Barry. “I want to thank Michael Rhodes and his team for their diligent work to make Ashton Brosnaham one of the best parks in Escambia County. I also want to thank Ray Palmer and Pensacola Sports for their strong partnership and advocacy in bringing highlevel sports to our county. District 5 looks forward to welcoming the SEC again in the

RESTAURATEUR CREATING UNIQUE NEW EATERIES IN DOWNTOWN PENSACOLA

coming weeks.”

Pensacola Sports is one of the oldest sports associations/commissions in the United States, beginning in 1955. Today, Pensacola Sports manages or assists in numerous events a year throughout the Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa County areas, and is the lead sports tourism agency for Escambia County. Events include a high school all-star series, 5K-15K runs, half marathon, fishing tournament, soccer and softball tournaments, collegiate conference and national championships, and annual awards and scholarships banquets to name a few.

Pensacola Sports is dedicated to building a better community through sports. Be Moved!

“The significant improvements at Ashton Brosnaham Athletic Park provide Pensacola Sports an additional asset to market to event organizers across the county,” said Pensacola Sports President and CEO Ray Palmer.

“Thanks to the support of the leadership of Escambia County and the efforts of the staff, this project was completed in time for the SEC Women’s soccer tournament this fall. We’re thrilled to have the SEC back in Pensacola!”

Headquartered in Birmingham, Ala., the Southeastern Conference is an NCAA Conference with 14 member institutions. The SEC crowns champions in 21 sports: 12 women’s sports and nine men’s sports. Since its formation in 1933, the SEC has directed and organized interscholastic athletic competitions, conducted tournaments and prescribed eligibility rules for student-athletes. The Conference also facilitates and assists its member institutions in maintaining intercollegiate athletic programs compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports. Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Tennessee and Vanderbilt have been in the SEC since its formation in 1933. The league has expanded twice, adding Arkansas and South Carolina in 1991, then Missouri and Texas A&M in 2012. To learn more, visit secsports.com.

“We are thankful to Escambia County and Pensacola Sports for providing a tremendous venue to conduct our SEC Soccer Championship,” said SEC Associate Commissioner/SWA Tiffany Daniels. “Their proven commitment to this event with the addition of this building promises to provide lasting memories for our student-athletes and an outstanding experience for SEC soccer fans from across the region.”

For decades, Johnny Mascia has seen it all— from the height of the New York restaurant scene in the 80s to a string of successes in Boston and variety of national magazine covers highlighting his cuisine. But he would tell you it’s not about him and he doesn’t want it to be about him—it’s about the craft and it’s about his team. He’s the guy behind the scenes, curating the menu and building a highly engaged team to bring life to his vision.

Mascia is a seasoned restauranteur who’s promising some exciting new cuisine in Pensacola. His first venture opens to the public Thursday, Oct. 5. BarSteak will feature breakfast, lunch and dinner and draws from his deep passion for delivering a unique and memorable dining experience. He is intense as he describes the concept.

“Imagine an experience where every sip, every bite, every moment will deliver an unforgettable journey of flavors,” said Mascia. “It sounds dramatic and it is — dining is theater. This will be an experience like none other that simultaneously stimulates all five senses. Every time we open the doors, it’s showtime.”

Mascia describes the BarSteak lunch menu with the same intensity.

“The core of our lunch menu is a dry-aged burger program,” said Mascia. “We’ll have a dryaged Whoppah, a dry-aged Big Maq and a dryaged Royale — all double smashed burgers. One of my favorites is the Royale — it’s a truffled foi Gras with a bacon-whiskey cranberry jam — it’s the tastiest burger you’ll ever eat.”

If Mascia is passionate about his cuisine,

he is even more passionate about his team. Employee profit sharing, very rare in the restaurant business, is a key part of Mascia’s focus on developing employees and fostering a culture where people feel empowered and valued.

“We cultivate an engaged team by investing in each person, by developing each person,” said Mascia. “It just works — many of my former team members now own their own restaurants because they learned the business beyond their job. We light their flame and fan the fire.”

He’s already working on his next downtown Pensacola project — Salad and Dash — a unique drive-through that offers salad and liquor to go. One more thing, it’s being creatively nestled into a bank drive-through kiosk no longer in use.

“Here’s my vision — deliver employeedriven, world-class culinary with a unique and memorable experience that stirs people, that starts a buzz,” said Mascia. “We’re going to do some breakthrough concepts in Pensacola and I can’t wait to see the team’s successes.”

Mascia has hired Jacob Childers as the executive chef and is bringing in Brian Kaderavek, owner of Pensacola’s Kingfisher restaurant, as consulting chef. Childers ran the largest river boat cruise line culinary program in the country and will oversee logistics, creative, branding and scaling. Kaderavek, who is helping curate the menu, spent five years with Chef Marcus Samuelson at Michelin-rated Aquavit in New York and four years in New Orleans with Chef Donald Link at Cochon, a James Beard awardwinning restaurant.

UF/IFAS EXTENSION PEANUT BUTTER CHALLENGE KICKS OFF OCT. 1

Media Contact: Dorothy C. Lee 850-475-5230, ext. 1113

The Peanut Butter Challenge is an annual jar collection for local food pantries hosted by UF/IFAS Extension and Florida A&M University (FAMU) Cooperative Extension. Launched in the Florida Panhandle counties in 2012, it is again spreading statewide this year.

Unopened jars of peanut butter can be donated to the Escambia County Extension office, located at 3740 Stefani Road, Cantonment, Fla 32533, from Oct. 1-31. The public can also follow along at Escambia County Extension’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages.

Other collection sites include:

• Escambia County Public Safety, 6585 N.

“W” Street, Pensacola, Fla.

• Escambia County Farm Bureau, 153 Hwy. 97, Molino, Fla.

• Holy Spirit Catholic, 10650 Gulf Beach Hwy., Pensacola, Fla.

• Gilmore, 31 E. Fairfield Dr., Pensacola, Fla

• Escambia County Administration, 221 Palafox Place, 4th Floor, Pensacola, Fla.

United States Department of Agriculture shows food insecurity affected roughly one in 10 Floridians in 2021.

In addition to the community donations, the Florida Peanut Producers Association (FPPA) and Florida Peanut Federation (FPF) have partnered with the project for years. These organizations are based in the northwest and northeast peanut-producing regions of the state and will again contribute to the totals distributed to food pantries in those regions.

Last year’s Peanut Butter Challenge collected a total of 27,258 pounds of nutritious spread from 48 Florida counties.

“This program grows each year through grassroots community support and simple word of mouth,” said Jennifer Bearden, agricultural agent for UF/IFAS Extension Okaloosa County and co-organizer of the Challenge this year. “I love that we had our partners at FAMU join in the friendly competition last year. It’s such a great way to highlight not only the importance of the crop to our agriculture industry, but also the nutritional value peanuts can offer our neighbors who are food-insecure.”

The Escambia County Department of Animal Welfare is excited to announce its participation in the BISSELL Pet Foundation “Empty the Shelters” event, Oct. 1-15. During this time, adoptions for all cats and dogs 1 year or older will be free. Puppies will be available for $50 and kittens will be available for $25. An $11 licensing fee will be applied to all adoptions for Escambia County residents. View all adoptable pets at the Animal Welfare and Adoption Center on 24petconnect.com.

“We are proud to participate with Bissell for the second time for their ‘Empty the Shelters’ event,” said John Robinson, Director for the Escambia County Department of Animal Welfare. “This will provide opportunities for all of our great dogs and cats to find their new families. Adopting a pet not only gives our homeless animals a second chance, but also creates space that will allow our organization to help many other animals in need of temporary housing. We have a large number of animals available for adoption that will make a great addition to your family.”

BISSELL Pet Foundation’s “Empty the Shelters” event is the largest funded adoption event in the country. With a goal of encouraging more families to choose adoption, this lifesaving effort has helped more than 190,000 pets find loving homes since 2016. As BISSELL Pet Foundation’s largest program, a total of 687 animal welfare organizations in 49 states and Canada have participated throughout the years. During BISSELL Pet Foundation’s “Empty the Shelters” quarterly national events, an average of 1,225 shelter pets are adopted each day.

“Our nation’s animal shelters are facing

an overcrowding crisis unlike anything we have experienced in more than a decade. The devastating increase in owner surrenders and stray intakes has left tens of thousands of socialized, house-trained, and leash-trained pets desperate to find a home,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation.

“Our Fall National ‘Empty the Shelters’ will support the adoption of thousands of pets across the country, helping shelters in this critical time. Opening your home to a shelter pet saves a life and creates space to give another pet a chance.”

The Escambia County Animal Welfare and Adoption Center is located at 200 W. Fairfield Drive. Hours of operation are MondayFriday, 12-5 p.m., and Saturdays from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. For more information, visit MyEscambia.com/animal-welfare.

Coordinated by UF/IFAS Extension and FAMU faculty, staff and volunteers, the competition among counties – for bragging rights only – was conceived as a way to feed hungry families ahead of the holidays in addition to promoting a Florida-grown crop. The peanut, which is produced mainly throughout the northern regions of the state, contributed $147 million to the state economy in 2022, according to the Florida Agricultural Statistics Service.

Peanut butter is an ever-popular item in food pantries because of its nutrient density and shelf stability. The project took on new meaning in 2020 as it spread statewide for the first time as demand for food bank assistance had increased as an economic effect of the COVID19 pandemic. The latest numbers from the

STATE TARGETS ABANDONED, DAMAGED BOATS

JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

TALLAHASSEE — Wildlife officials want to speed up the process of removing abandoned and storm-damaged boats from state waters, while complimenting residents for efforts to secure vessels ahead of Hurricane Idalia.

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials on Wednesday outlined plans to ask for $7 million from the Legislature for a derelict-vessel removal program. Also, the commission will ask lawmakers to approve speeding a notice period for owners to take care of damaged and abandoned boats.

Commission Chairman Rodney Barreto said during a recent fishing trip on the St. Johns River he came across five derelict craft, which were an “eyesore” and an environmental problem.

“I just think that this problem is only going to get bigger, as more people move to Florida, as more boats are registered in Florida, as boats get older, they just naturally get abandoned, because people are going, ‘I’m not going to pay the insurance,’” Barreto said during a commission meeting in Jensen Beach.

During the fiscal year that ended June 30, state agencies reported handling 353 of the more than 420 boats damaged and abandoned after Hurricane Ian, 282 “abandoned migrant vessels” in South Florida and 270 boats from other areas of the state.

Col. Brian Smith of the commission’s Division of Law Enforcement, said most residents along the Gulf Coast heeded warnings ahead of Idalia’s Aug. 30 landfall and secured their vessels on the water or took them inland. The result, Smith said, is only 40 boats have been documented as left derelict by the storm.

“This shows that communities can do a

huge part in helping out,” Smith said. “If you have the ability to remove your vessel from the water prior to a storm, the result is far fewer derelict vessels after a storm. So, this community did an amazing job of taking care of that.”

The Category 3 Idalia made landfall in the Keaton Beach area of Taylor County but also affected other areas of the Gulf Coast as it traveled north.

With the 2024 legislative session starting in January, Jess Melkun, the commission’s legislative affairs director, said the agency is seeking a change to get boat owners to act quicker.

The request would allow officers to post notification stickers on vessels identified as derelict, as part of a process to set off a 21-day clock in which owners can request administrative hearings to determine if the vessels are derelict. When it doesn’t receive responses from owners, the state can begin the process of removing boats at the owners’ expense.

Current law requires officers to make reasonable efforts to contact owners of derelict, at-risk or public-nuisance boats. If names and addresses of the owners are reasonably available, officers must mail notices to the owners before placing stickers on the vessels.

“This often requires that the officer make a second trip to the vessel to post the sticker notice once the paper notice has been issued or mailed to the owner,” Melkun said. Barreto questioned if the process could be further shortened.

“Maybe there’s a different way we can do this, and maybe we’ve got to go change state law, but I mean we have so many derelict boats throughout Florida that it’s just cumbersome upon the agency,” Barreto said.

JUSTICES PARSE CONTROVERSIAL PROTEST LAW

JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

TALLAHASSEE — Attorneys for Gov.

Ron DeSantis and the Jacksonville sheriff on Wednesday told the Florida Supreme Court that innocent bystanders and peaceful protesters are not threatened by a controversial 2021 law that seeks to crack down on protests that turn violent.

“Participating in a crime means more than mere presence,” Sonya Harrell, an attorney for the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, said as justices tried to parse the meaning of a key part of the law championed by DeSantis after nationwide protests following the 2020 death of George Floyd, a Black man who was killed by a Minneapolis police officer.

The Supreme Court heard arguments as an outgrowth of a federal lawsuit filed by groups such as the Dream Defenders and the Florida State Conference of the NAACP alleging the law violated First Amendment rights. The civil-rights groups argued the law could lead to peaceful demonstrators facing charges when protests turn violent.

Chief U.S. District Judge Mark Walker in 2021 issued a preliminary injunction against the law, describing it as unconstitutionally “vague and overbroad.”

The state and the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, which is a defendant in the case, appealed. But the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in January requested help from the Florida Supreme Court with what it called a “novel” issue — how to determine the meaning of the word “riot” in the law.

The Supreme Court quizzed attorneys Wednesday about sentence construction and grammar in the law, but at least some justices appeared critical of Walker’s interpretation.

“Some of us are not convinced that there is ambiguity here,” Justice Charles Canady said to James Tysse, an attorney for the groups that filed the lawsuit.

At another point, Chief Justice Carlos Muniz said he thought “this whole thing is bizarre.”

But in its January ruling, a three-judge panel of the federal appeals court said it was deferring a ruling on the state’s appeal of the preliminary injunction until the Florida Supreme Court could weigh in on the definition of a riot. The somewhat-unusual move is known as certifying a question to the state court.

“The proper interpretation of the statutory definition is a novel issue of state law that the Florida Supreme Court has yet to address,”

the appeals-court panel said. “After careful consideration, we exercise our discretion to certify a question to that (Supreme) Court to determine precisely what conduct the definition prohibits.”

Tysse asked justices to define a “riot” in a way that would maintain previous interpretations and ensure protection of rights of peaceful protesters.

“When the statute was enacted, my clients were understandably concerned that the law of rioting had changed to make it easier to sweep in those at protests who were simply exercising their First Amendment rights, without the intent to commit any acts of violence,” Tysse said after the arguments.

The Supreme Court typically takes months before issuing decisions.

The 2021 law says that a “person commits a riot if he or she willfully participates in a violent public disturbance involving an assembly of three or more persons, acting with a common intent to assist each other in violent and disorderly conduct, resulting in injury to another person, damage to property or imminent danger of injury to another person or damage to property.”

The appeals court said plaintiffs, for example, have argued that the law does not define what it means to participate in a violent public disturbance.

In his 90-page decision, Walker pointed to concerns about vagueness.

“Though plaintiffs claim that they and their members fear that it (the law) will be used against them based on the color of their skin or the messages that they express, its vagueness permits those in power to weaponize its enforcement against any group who wishes to express any message that the government disapproves of,” Walker wrote. “Thus, while there may be some Floridians who welcome the chilling effect that this law has on the plaintiffs in this case, depending on who is in power, next time it could be their ox being gored.”

But Nick Meros, deputy general counsel for DeSantis, said during Tuesday’s arguments that a person would have to “willfully” participate in a violent public disturbance to be prosecuted under the law.

“A person can’t simply be present at a protest,” Meros said.

RAIFORD — More than 27 years after he sexually assaulted and murdered a woman he met at an Escambia County bar, Michael Duane Zack was put to death by lethal injection Tuesday evening at Florida State Prison. Zack, 54, was pronounced dead at 6:14 p.m. and became the sixth Florida inmate executed this year.

“I love you all,” Zack said when asked by a prison official if he wanted to make a last statement.

Strapped to a gurney before the execution, Zack briefly lifted his head about 6 p.m. and looked toward a room where 20 witnesses, reporters and Department of Corrections officials watched from behind a window. He also appeared to blink rapidly.

About two minutes into the lethal-injection process, his chest could be seen heaving. A medical official used a stethoscope to check Zack at 6:13 p.m., before he was pronounced dead.

Zack did not request a last meal and was visited Tuesday by his wife and a spiritual adviser, Florida Department of Corrections spokeswoman Kayla McLaughlin said.

The execution came after the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday refused to issue a stay. Zack’s attorneys appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court after the Florida Supreme Court and the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to halt the execution.

Gov. Ron DeSantis on Aug. 17 signed a death warrant for Zack in the murder of Ravonne Smith during a crime spree that also included killing another woman. State and federal courts turned down a series of appeals over two decades.

Court documents said Zack met Smith, an employee of Dirty Joe’s bar, on June 13, 1996. They wound up going to Smith’s house, where evidence indicated Zack hit her in the head with a beer bottle and then sexually assaulted her.

Zack then was accused of pursuing Smith into a bedroom, where he beat her head against a floor, before stabbing her in the chest, according to the documents. He stole a television, a video-cassette recorder and Smith’s purse and was arrested days later after trying to pawn the television and VCR in Panama City.

A jury in September 1997 convicted Zack of first-degree murder, robbery with a firearm and sexual battery, records show. He also was sentenced to life in prison for killing Laura Rosillo in Okaloosa County shortly before the Smith murder.

Family members of Smith attended the execution, while McLaughlin said she did not know if family members of Rosillo were present.

In trying to prevent the execution, Zack’s attorneys primarily focused on a diagnosis

AGENCY TRYING TO ADDRESS BEAR CONCERNS

The executive director of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said Wednesday the agency is trying to address concerns about increased humanbear conflicts in Franklin County. “We are currently working to increase our surveillance response, that includes setting traps,” Executive Director Roger Young said as the commission met in Jensen Beach. Young added the agency is working with Franklin County on a “solution to these interactions.” Franklin County Sheriff A.J. Smith has raised concerns to the agency and Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office about interactions between humans and bears in the rural county southwest of Tallahassee. Last week, Rep. Jason Shoaf, a Port St. Joe Republican whose district includes Franklin County, filed a bill

BOOK FILES ‘BUFFETT HIGHWAY’ BILL

A Senate proposal that would honor the late musician Jimmy Buffett is a drastic change in the latitude from a House measure filed last week. Senate Minority Leader Lauren Book, D-Davie, on Tuesday filed a bill (SB 84) for the 2024 legislative session that would require the Department of Transpor-

that he suffered Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, which they said caused him to function as being “intellectually disabled.” The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a 2002 case known as Atkins v. Virginia that executing people with intellectual disabilities violates the Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

In a filing at the U.S. Supreme Court, Zack’s attorneys wrote that “the medical community now recognizes that the unique, cognitive, practical and social impairments inherent to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (are) indistinguishable from those of Intellectual Developmental Disability.”

But Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody’s office disputed the Fetal Alcohol Syndrome argument.

“There is no real possibility of this (U.S. Supreme) Court expanding Atkins to include a diagnosis of FAS,” the state lawyers wrote in a court filing. “Zack would not succeed in having this court wholesale defer to the views of the psychiatric community on the matter of whether Atkins should be expanded to include other types of diagnoses. While he asserts that the psychiatric community now views FAS as functionally identical to intellectual disability, courts determine Eighth Amendment law, not unelected and unrepresentative experts.

DeSantis signed Zack’s death warrant two weeks after the state executed James Phillip Barnes, 61, in the 1988 murder of a woman in her Melbourne condominium.

That came after the June execution of Duane Owen for the 1984 murder of a Palm Beach County woman. Also, the state executed Darryl Barwick in May in the 1986 murder of a woman in her Panama City apartment; Louis Gaskin in April in the 1989 murders of a couple in Flagler County; and Donald David Dillbeck in February in the 1990 murder of a woman during a carjacking in a Tallahassee mall parking lot.

Dillbeck was the first person executed since Gary Ray Bowles was put to death by lethal injection in August 2019 for a 1994 murder in Jacksonville.

The Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops last month asked DeSantis to stay Zack’s execution and commute his sentence to life without parole.

“His heinous and horrific crimes against these women have caused untold suffering to their families, friends, and communities,” Michael Sheedy, the conference’s executive director, wrote to DeSantis. “Yet, in taking the life of Mr. Zack, the state will do nothing to restore the victims’ lives. Rather, statesanctioned killing will only further fuel the growing societal disrespect for the dignity of human life. The death penalty merely perpetuates the cycles of violence and vengeance that permeate our culture.”

(HB 87) that would allow people to kill bears without permits or authorization when they feel threatened or believe such force is necessary for protection. Shoaf filed the bill for consideration during the 2024 legislative session, which will start in January. Similar legislation has not passed during the past two sessions. Kate MacFall, Florida state director of the Humane Society of the United States, said the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission should focus on improved trash management and education instead of holding a bear hunt. “A bear hunt will not fix the concern with human-bear conflicts,” MacFall said last week. “Killing bears deep in the woods will not address the bears in town, neighborhoods.” Bear hunting has long been controversial. The state last held a hunt in 2015, which was expected to result in 320 bears being killed over a oneweek period. After two days, 304 were dead. A 2017 estimate placed the bear population in Florida at 4,050.

tation to establish the “Jimmy Buffett Highway” along the final stretch of the Overseas Highway entering Key West. Book’s proposal would designate about a two-mile stretch of road to honor Buffett, who died Sept. 1 at age 76. On Friday, Rep. Chuck Clemons, R-Newberry, filed a bill (HB 91) that would designate State Road A1A as “Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway” from Monroe County, which includes the Florida Keys, to Nassau County, north of Jacksonville.
