GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Residents criticized Commissioner Ashlee Hofberger's renderings for a new Pensacola Beach gateway that offer options such as the Innisfree logo, a beach ball, or a dolphin, calling them amateur hour and cheeseball. They questioned why the designs were not shown at the May 28 town hall and noted that the public vote, which will end June 11, gives only five days for feedback—online comments call for professional designers—demonstrating widespread disapproval.
