County report: Wedgewood Pit Tour Video

   July 29, 2014

On July 18, Escambia County Commissioner Lumon May and State Representative Mike Hill toured the Wedgewood neighborhood to get a firsthand look at the various pit and landfill projects currently in operation in the neighborhood.

The tour took place after Commissioner May and the entire Escambia County Commission heard the concerns of Wedgewood residents who fear the businesses may be causing environmental and physical harm to the residents.

This video, presented by Escambia County Television (ECTV), can give you an idea of what the elected leaders and a group of neighborhood residents found along the tour. The video can be seen anytime by clicking here. The video will also be airing regularly on ECTV (Channel 98 on Cox Cable, Mediacom and the Brighthouse Networks, Channel 99 on AT&T Uverse).

ECTV is a service of the Escambia County Board of County Commission’s Office of Public Information and Communications.
