FIRE CHIEF RESCINDS RESIGNATION

May 1, 2019 | 5:19 AM

Escambia County’s fire chief has rescinded his resignation. Rusty Nail submitted his resignation to be effective on June 1st, but in a letter to Interim County Administrator Amy Lovoy on Tuesday, Nail said that many changes have occurred and he could not in good conscience leave his position without a succession plan. Nail sent another letter to Interim Public Safety Director Matt Coughlin requesting that he begin administrative leave on Monday, April 30 and amending his resignation date from June 1 to June 15. That request was granted. Lovoy, Coughlin, former public safety director Mike Weaver and Human Resources Director Erik Kleinert have all submitted their resignations. Weaver is no longer on the job.
