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. 

Camille Abbamonte is a self-professed animal lover and advocate.  A couple of weeks ago she accidently stumbled across a beach dog park in Pensacola, so she stopped to take a look.  “I was in awe of how well it went, there must have been 40-50 dogs there.  Everyone was acting responsibly, the dogs were socializing, it was great.”  She liked it so much that she returned with her three rescues.  “Within 10 minutes, all three dogs were engaged and I made a new friend.  I met some wonderful people and my dogs were having a great time,” Abbamonte said.
