huffmanBy Anita ToddHAINES CITY – At the Sept. 19 Haines City Commission meeting, the Board voted unanimously to remove a resolution from the agenda that would have excused Commissioner Anne Huffman’s recent absences. 25-1898, titled Excusing Commissioner Anne Huffman’s Absences from Regular City Commission Meetings, had originally been scheduled for discussion under “New Business.” Once the section began, Commissioner Huffman asked Mayor Morris West if the resolution could be moved from item 9f to 9a. Although not discussed during the meeting itself, Huffman later explained to The Daily Ridge that her absences were due to health issues. “If there are extenuating circumstances, someone can call in to participate in a meeting because of health issues,” Reilly said. “If my Mom isn’t here, she’s at Advent Health in Orlando,” she told the Commission.
