Dumpster Fire: Walton County Commissioners Fire Administrator Fired, Spark War of Words
Wow. Just Wow.
The Walton County Commissioners decided to fire County Administrator Stan Sunday after just three months on the job.
Plent of people showed up to talk - and opine on Sunday, including his ex-wife.
This follows the firing of Quinn Robertson after a six month tenure as the top unelected official in the county.
But don't miss the things that are REALLY going on that affect your day to day life. There's not a county administrator in the world who would look at this job and think "I could have a good quality of life at this gig," which means serious negative implications for the quality of the applicants. Don't forget the fact that there are claims up and down about nepotism in the local government - from the inside and out. Add on the. fact that there are multiple key positions in Walton that haven't been filled - and you have a real set of issues to overcome.
Christopher and Steven talk about the meeting, what it means for residents and what's next for Walton County.
