Corbett Davis to return to DIB

   June 16, 2011

The owner of Jewelers Trade Shop, Corbett Davis, Jr., has been nominated by Mayor Ashton Hayward, along with Vinyl co-owner Evan Levin, to the Downtown Improvement Board.

The Downtown Improvement Board is a quasi-governmental, not-for-profit agency created in 1972 for the purpose of physically, economically, and socially revitalizing downtown Pensacola. The DIB coordinates the marketing and promotion of the 44 block central business core of downtown Pensacola.

The appointment of Davis can’t be good news for DIB executive director Kim Kimbrough. Davis resigned from the DIB board, while serving as its chair, in February 2009 over concerns in how Kimbrough was managing downtown parking.
