After calling a public relations consultant a “tax-payer subsidized slut”, Tampa Aviation Authority Board member Sam Rashid resigned earlier this month. Now the aviation authority president has called out Rick Scott to quickly name a replacement, but today the Governor says he is in no hurry.

“Like all boards, we’re going to take out time to find a good person. We’ve made significant investments in the airport, they’ve got a major expansion going on, the airport is doing very well. I’m going to make sure we get a good person” says Scott.

Rick Scott appointed Rashid to the Aviation Authority in June 2014
