Reporting from Florida Today – Dave Berman
Former Palm Bay City Councilman Tres Holton announced in a lengthy Facebook post in November that he would be “retiring from politics” at the end of 2019 after more than 20 years.
But his announcement came with a caveat. Holton said the exceptions would include “finalizing a couple outstanding projects with my firm” — which is involved in government relations — “and resolving outstanding commitments to a political committee.”
And, true to his word, the political committee Floridians for Responsible Government — of which Holton is listed as chairperson, treasurer and registered agent — has remained active in January, with four expenditures of $1,000 apiece.
