B-6 The Orlando Sentinel, Tuesday, February 16, 1988 Gordon won't try 5th term Eatonville mayor supports former council member King Is Sis. By Debbie Salamone OF THE SENTINEL STAFF 'l 1 7i EATONVILLE Mayor Abraham Gordon said Monday he would not seek a fifth term, and he endorsed candidate Bobby King as his replacement. Gordon's announcement came less than two hours before the deadline to qualify for the March 5 election, when voters will choose two council members and a new mayor from among six candidates. it mi 7 "Vr, Gordon, 51, said his eight years as mayor and four as vice mayor helped develop Eatonville into a first-class community, but he said he has decided to move on. However, the ouster or resignation of key town workers, confusion over administrative procedures and conflicts are expected to be the major campaign issues.

King and Vereen see the widening as a way to bring development to Eatonville. King, 30, an occupational placement specialist at the Wymore Career Education Center, lost his 1986 council bid to Merrile Glover. He and another losing candidate said election day irregularities cost them the election, and they sued to stop their opponents from taking office. They later dropped the suit to avoid damaging the town, they said. Vereen, 63, owns Eatonville Diversified, a building company that deals mainly in commercial construction and government-funded projects.

One of several controversies during his 17-year reign as rrteyor involved his company's building of the town's $50,000 jail in 1971. Vereen pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of conflict of interest and of violating standards of public official conduct. He was sentenced to 18 months' probation. Residents Charles Bargaineer and Harry Bing are running for the two-year council post vacated by Nolan Pitts. Bargaineer, 36, is a former town building inspector and code enforcement officer.

Bing, 35, served five years as chairman of the planning and zoning commission and is the son and business partner of Eatonville businessman E. L. Bing, who owns Rainbow Bar and Package, Mr. B's of Eatonville and Smith's Eatonville Motel. Former council member R.

V. Great-house, 48, will challenge three-term incumbent council member James Williams. Williams, 40, a lineman for Florida Power is seeking a fourth term. Greathouse, an auto mechanic, served on the council from 1979 to 1981, losing his second bid to current Vice Mayor Ada Sims. (4 ry Gordon among council members have rocked Gordon's administration for the last few months, leaving the government at what residents describe as a standstill.

"It is with mixed emotions that I have decided not to seek re-election," Gordon said at a news conference. He said he plans to start a printing business in Altamonte Springs. King, a former two-term council member, will face former Mayor Nathaniel Vereen for the two-year post. Vereen was elected mayor in 1963, but he retired in 1980 and Gordon was elected.

Panel disagrees on environment regulation Butler shoots for re-election, wants say in district redrawing "--1 I.4 A By Donna O'Neal By Goldie Blumenstyk OF THE SENTINEL STAFF tions the council agreed to change the zoning plan and allow commercial development along major thoroughfares. The effort was designed to create economic cies that Gluckman and several other members wanted isn't necessary to reduce the bureaucracy in the regulatory process. Instead the report recommends shifting some regulatory powers to other agencies rather than consolidating programs and creating three agencies as Gluckman and commission members Marilyn Crotty and Carol Rist want.

"We were not charged with preparing a massive reorganization of the state's environmental agencies and programs We would have recommended such had we thought it necessary. It isn't," said chairman Jay Landers, an attorney for1 developers and a former secretary of the Department of Environmental Regulation. He also is on the Audubon Society's board of directors. But Gluckman, who issued a separate "minority" report with Crotty and Rist, said the commission's final recommendations won't bring the needed accountability to the regulatory system. "The majority's solutions to these problems are to shift a few programs and proclaim victory," Gluckman said.

"The position of the minority is that problems within an environmental system can only be solved by a cohesive permitting and enforcement system" that clearly delineates which agency is responsible. The recommendations issued Monday will be drafted into a bill and introduced during the 1988 legislative session that begins in April, Landers said. SENTINEL TALLAHASSEE BUREAU TALLAHASSEE A state commission appointed to streamline environmental regulation issued its final report to the Legislature on Monday, but some commission members say the recommendations don't go far enough. "It's a real disappointment," said David Gluckman, vice chairman of the Environmental Efficiency Study Commission and a lobbyist for the Florida Audubon Society. "It will accomplish very little.

My prediction is nothing will happen this year." However, the commission's chairman said the major overhaul of Florida's environmental agen Mable Butler, one of the most outspoken members of the Orlando City Council, has filed documents allowing her to collect money for her campaign for a second four-year term. Butler, who has represented southwest Orlando's District 6 since 1984, often has critcized Mayor Bill Frederick's administration, saying he has failed to hire minorities for top city posts and has spent too much tax money for public art, something she called wasteful. "I have been accessible, and I have responded to my constituency," said Butler, 60. Her biggest success came in-1985, when the entire city was rezoned. Largely at her insistence and with the support of several neighborhood organiza- development opportunities for lo- Butler cal residents.

Even though she represents a district where a majority of the residents are black, she insists she is not a "single-issue" council member, as some have suggested. One of her chief reasons for running again, Butler said, is to influence the redrawing of the city council districts after the 1990 census. Butler said she plans to raise only $500 for her campaign, unless she draws an opponent for the Sept. 6 election. To date, no others have indicated interest in the non-partisan post.
