Candidate Financial Info

The Independent News obtained the Form 1 Statement of Financial Interests for ECUA, SRIA and Pensacola City Council members. And, unlike the Form 6 financials that state and other local elected officials must submit to the State Division of
Elections, these do not require income or other dollar amounts.
Still, many of the public records turned in by the board members are incomplete or vague. It’s still good to learn what their primary sources of income, property they own and liabilities.
For instance, ECUA Board member Dale Perkins primary income sources are working for a charter boat and real estate company. SRIA board member Martin McGuire lists seven companies he has an interest in, including McGuire’s Irish Pub in Pensacola and Destin, Flounder’s, Harborview, Calypso, Catering by McGuire’s, Irish Patch and Free Beer Tomorrow. SRIA’s Bill Griffith did turn in an extra sheet, listing his assets at $3.47 million. And City Councilman Jack Nobles, with the Bank of Pensacola, lists seven business entities and 14 properties he owns.
We'll publish other info soon.
