This doesn’t include enterprise accounts – Airport, Port, ESP, CRA, Sanitation, West FL Library. Also the daily didn’t include engineering. MIS or housing departments. Guess we’ll have to put a records request in, too.

While we’re at it, we will do the same for Escambia County. Might as well see how big the beast is….consolidation starts looking better every day.
