The Holley-Navarre Water System is seeking conditional-use of land that it has owned for 10 years to build two Rapid Infiltration Basin Systems (RIBS) to effectively eliminate treated waste water otherwise known as reclaimed water or effluent.  There will be no mechanical building or equipment on the site of the RIBS and the entire site will be fenced for safety and security.

For a building in which evidence is supposed to carry the day, the proposed new Santa Rosa County courthouse in Milton appears in need of a strong closing argument.

The clock is ticking on Santa Rosa County commissioners to make their case to voters for a 1-cent local option sales tax that would help pay for a new courthouse in Milton.

Residents in the Holley-Navarre area have received a letter that appears to be from the water company, but a closer look at the fine print says otherwise.  The letter tells residents that the water line buried underground on their property is the homeowner’s responsibility and the cost of repairs falls on their shoulders.  The company sending the letter, HomeServe USA Corp., is selling a service plan or insurance to cover the cost of any future repairs.
