To aid in the arrival of tourists in the area, improvements have also been made at the Florala Municipal Airport. New facilities at the airport include T-Hangars and a military weather station, Zorn said. Zorn also said the Florala Library has updated the library's computer equipment and continues to improve the facility's support and infrastructure. Although the Florala City Council has made some progress, it can't dwell in the accomplishments of the past, Bedsole said, adding previous administration remained trapped in the past. The mayor and Council have to forget about the past and look to the future and new prospects.
Some people find that hard to do.
Looking into the future, Bedsole said she hopes the city will continue to work toward attracting tourism. Zorn, too, said he wants to work toward making Florala more attractive to tourists. Zorn said he looks forward to continued cooperation with the Covington County Economic Development Commission in their efforts to attracting business to the area. The entire Council hopes to continue to recruit business and jobs to Florala and Covington County. We need to continue to cooperate with the other Covington County cities for progress for all of the county.
