🌟RETIREMENT🌟 Yesterday, we celebrated Paul Thorpe’s career with a retirement recognition at our monthly Governing Board meeting. Paul joined the District in August of 1994 as an Assistant Water Resource Planner in the Division of Resource Management. Throughout his tenure, he has been subsequently promoted, becoming a Bureau Chief in 2014, Deputy Division Director in 2020, and finally Division Director in 2023. In his 30 years at the District, Paul has become our in-house expert on all aspects of water resource management, watershed and water supply planning, and grant program development and implementation. He can recall the details and history of projects, water resource issues, funding, partnerships, and District staff dating back three decades. Paul’s extensive water resource knowledge and his attention to detail are unparalleled and certainly irreplaceable. As a leader, Paul is effective, dedicated, and thoughtful; he is well-liked by all, and his collaborative nature has contributed to many successful partnerships between the District, other state and federal agencies, and local communities. Paul is kind and genuinely cares about the individuals on his team, always having an open door to discuss work and personal topics alike. He has a great sense of humor, and his quick-witted quips will be missed. The entire District is grateful for his 30 years of service to the and the communities and people of northwest Florida. He is going to be greatly missed and we wish him the best upon retirement!👏🏻
