Crestview City Council Member Sylvester Echols is inviting Precinct 2 residents to a town hall meeting later this month, offering constituents a chance to meet their newly appointed representative and voice concerns on issues impacting their community.

  • The town hall is scheduled for Wednesday, March 25, at 5:30 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers at 198 N. Wilson St. in Crestview. The event will begin with a meet-and greet, followed by a question-and-answer session that will be livestreamed on the official City of Crestview Facebook page.

Residents unable to attend in person can still participate by submitting questions in advance through a Survey Monkey form or by posting comments during the Facebook livestream.

“I want the residents of Precinct 2 to get to know me and share their concerns,” Echols said. “I believe that listening and understanding are important before making decisions, so this meeting will be instrumental in helping me fulfill my role as their representative.”

Echols was appointed to the City Council on Jan. 20 and officially sworn in on Jan. 26. A retired Air Force veteran with 27 years of military service, he previously served on the Crestview Planning and Development Board.
