Currently the Public Affairs Manager for the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, Kershaw brings extensive communications management experience to the position, coupled with a passion for the community of Palm Coast. We are excited to welcome Brittany Kershaw as the city’s first Director of Public Information and Engagement, Morton said. She brings a great deal of experience in communicating with our residents, and I know she will make a great addition to the city team.

Barbosa was elected to the council last November, along with Ed Danko, so the two council members were not part of the group that hired Morton, and on the campaign trail both had been intensely critical of the city and its administration. Danko’s criticism cooled considerably soon after his election. Barbosa’s was never apparent on the council itself: until his move against Morton at the April 6 meeting, when Barbosa got no support from any other council member, he had not voiced the sort of issues, concerns or criticism he did in his evaluation, which appears to have been influenced by that meeting and its aftermath.
