A Gainesville city commissioner, an engineer and a college professor were chosen Wednesday, August 17, 2016 as finalists for a spot on the Florida Public Service Commission.
A nominating council heard presentations from eight applicants before picking the finalists to send to Gov. Rick Scott, who will make the appointment to the utility-regulatory commission.
The finalists are Todd Chase, a Gainesville city commissioner since 2011; Donald Polmann, a Dunedin engineer who was a longtime official with Tampa Bay Water; and Cynthia Wilson Orndoff, a Fort Myers resident who is a professor of construction management at Florida SouthWestern State College.
Scott will choose a replacement for longtime Public Service Commissioner Lisa Edgar, who decided not to seek another term on the panel. Her term expires at the end of the year.
