J.D. Peacock

The Niceville High Schooljazz bands received adonation of $1,400 raisedduring their recent per-formance at BluewaterBay Marina and LJSchooners DocksideRestaurant. The ensem-bles played for two hours,with LJ Schooners donat-ing a portion of the day’ssales to the program. Inaddition, customers andpatrons filled the band’stip jar to the rim.

Digging it

gasoline and sales taxes, state andfederal aid, money from the BP oilspill settlement, and other sources.He said the county court system ismostly user-funded, through fines,fees, and assessment of court coststo participants in criminal and civilproceedings.

He said his office administersthe investment of funds inOkaloosa County’s “surplus bal-ance,” and that he pursues “a veryrisk-averse investment policy,”which earns 2 percent on invest-ment, or about $2.5 million a year.

Peacock said that he and hisemployees take care to be vigilantregarding county funds, and aremindful of past scandals, such asthe 2012 theft of TouristDevelopment Department fundsby its executive director, and anemployee-kickback scheme car-ried out until 2009 by then-sheriffCharlie Morris.

To prevent such events,

Peacock said, he encouragesemployees in all county depart-ments to be thoroughly aware oftheir department’s budgets as wellas the county budget overall. Hesaid that when information abouthow money is being handled isknown only by a few people at thetop, the temptation exists for suchinsiders to misuse it.

Peacock said that the risk ofmisappropriation tends to begreatest “when times are good,”and when officials have all or mostof the money they think they needfor government activities. He saidthat during difficult economictimes, when budgets are tighter,employees tend to be somewhatjealous of each other’s funding,and keep a closer eye on wherecounty money is going and how itis being used.

Peacock said his office encour-ages inquiries by OkaloosaCounty residents, and that he isalways available to answer ques-tions or provide information.Citizens, he said, “should be ever

vigilant of politicians.”Peacock, 53, a Shalimar

Republican, was first elected clerkof court in 2014, from a field ofthree candidates in the aftermathof the tourist-development scan-dal. The office is up for electionagain in 2020, as are those occu-pied by the county’s other consti-tutional officers: sheriff, electionssupervisor, tax collector, and prop-erty appraiser.

During his speech May 6,Peacock spoke in favor of a countyproposal to expand its 5-percenttourist-development “bed tax,”which is currently charged only inbeachfront communities. He saidthe added revenue could be usedto improve infrastructure and pub-lic safety services throughout thecounty, which is importantbecause tourism affects the entirecounty through such things as traf-fic, public safety, and stress placedon county roads, water and sewersystems, and other infrastructure.

Peacock also said that fundsfrom the separate county half-per-

cent sales tax approved by voterslast year will be especially impor-tant to public safety and infrastruc-ture improvements. The moneyfrom the sales tax, he said, can beused to “leverage” state and feder-al grant money, because suchgrants often require local match-ing funds to obtain much largeramounts from state and federalauthorities.

The most important infrastruc-ture project underway in OkaloosaCounty, said Peacock, is construc-tion of a bypass to alleviate trafficcongestion around Crestview. Hesaid that relieving such jams isimportant to helping military unitsat Eglin Air Force Base to accom-plish their missions.

He added that the economicimpact of the military onOkaloosa County greatly exceedsthat of tourism, and that “troopscan’t wait in traffic for an hour anda half” to get to work or for mili-tary supplies and equipment to bemoved to where needed.

she was terminated,” the reportstated.

Among other transactions, acompany-commissioned audit

later listed unauthorized payraises for Marchman totaling$63,539 from April 2014 toSeptember 2015, according tothe report.

The sheriff’s report furtherstated that an investigator tried

to interview Marchman, but thather lawyer advised her to invokeher right to remain silent.

She entered a written plea ofnot guilty April 19, according tocircuit court records. A trial wasset for Aug. 5.

Letters to the EditorGive locals a break onbridge tolls

By Chantel MartinNiceville

I have lived here for five yearsand have had a SunPass that entiretime. As a resident of Niceville Iam wondering why locals are stillpaying the Mid-Bay Bridge toll?

Yes, I know that we get a so-called “discount” after going over32 times a month or more, butwhy do we have to pay it at all?

My daughter works and goesto school in Destin and we pay$120 a month just in tolls. I havetried to seek out different avenueson how to address this situationand get something done, and havespoken to many locals who are sofrustrated with this that we don’tknow what else to do.

The traffic during the peak sea-son is terrible, and those of us whoare locals don’t even want to goover the bridge then. So thatleaves the tourists to pay the tolls,which I can only assume wouldbring in a lot of revenue.

Valparaiso police responded tothe apartment complex at 500Kelly Mill Road on April 30,where a resident reported she hadfound that a side mirror of herparked vehicle was damaged,apparently by a shot from a BBgun the evening of April 27.Also on April 30, another resi-

dent of 500 Kelly Mill Roadreported he had discovered thatsomeone had shot the windshieldof his parked work vehicle. Yetanother resident told an officer thathe had seen a car racing throughthe neighborhood, and heard whathe later believed were shots com-ing from it. This car was describedas a gray or silver newer sedan.On April 30 Niceville police

Officerscollected a BB gun and acces-sories.On May 4 Niceville police

Rosemont subdivision in East

Niceville phoned the Beacon, say-ing that several car windows hadbeen shot with BB guns in hisneighborhood, and that in addi-tion, four cars had been egged.The caller, who asked that his

name not be published for fear ofretaliation, said several windowsof homes in the area had also beenshot with BB guns.The caller also expressed con-

cern for those doing the damage.“Young people do not alwaysthink through the downstreamconsequences of their decisionsand actions,” he said, adding thatan arrest record, even for a rela-

tively minor crime such as vandal-ism, can be the “tiebreaker” whensuch people as employers, collegeadmissions officers, and militaryrecruiters make decisions aboutwho gets to move forward towarda prosperous and successful life,and who gets left behind.There were no reported injuries

in any of these cases. Nationwide,each year thousands of people arewounded, a few of them fatally, byprojectiles fired from air-poweredweapons, including BB guns, pel-let guns and paintball guns,according to the AmericanAcademy of Pediatrics.

Hailey Moriarty, right, is asophomore student-athlete play-ing girls varsity soccer forNiceville High School. As shetraveled around NW Floridaduring the past two high schoolseasons, it occurred to her thatNiceville is the only town sheknows of that doesn’t have soc-cer scoreboards at their homefield. So, Hailey decided she’d take

on a community project to planfor, and raise funds for twoscoreboards. Area schools(Ruckel, Rocky Bayou,Niceville High School, andLewis School) consider TwinOaks Park (a.k.a. Howard HillSoccer Complex) as their homefield for both their boys andgirls varsity and junior varsityteams. Hailey met with Mr. Jim

Baughman, Recreation and CityPark director for the City ofNiceville, and he agreed to pro-vide the labor and material toerect the scoreboards as well ashook up the electrical and main-tain the scoreboards. Twin Oaksis leased from Eglin AFB andthey have approved the project. Hailey’s goal is for the score-

board to be operational by the

first home game in the Fall. To date, the Eglin Federal

Credit Union, Bright Light LandTitle Company, LLC, and GulfCoast Facial & Oral Surgery,and Legacy Cabinet Companyhave sponsored the scoreboardproject. Individual sponsorshipshave started with over $1,800collected toward a $5,000 goal.Hailey has raised $10,272 of$13,000 through GoFundMe,checks, and cash donations. The project is estimated to

cost $13,000. If interested ingiving via GoFundMe, simplygo to 1) www.gofundme.com 2)search “Twin Oaks Soccer” 3)click on the picture and 4) select“donate now.” If interested inwriting a check donation, send acheck to City of Niceville, Attn:Jim Baughman, 208 PartinDrive, Niceville, Florida 32578,Memo: Twin Oaks ScoreboardProject.
