Crestview City Council is trying to expand the state’s 1000-foot residency restriction to 1500 feet for sex offenders
The first reading and vote on the proposed ordinance for Crestview, Florida, that would extend the residency restrictions to 1500 feet were completed on September 11. The vote was unanimous to move forward with the ordinance. The second reading and final vote will be on September 25.
Council member Ryan Bullard talks of making living in Crestview City for future registrants a criminal act, also known as banishment.

After writing each of the City of Crestview’s Council members, I found it interesting that Counselman Bullard is the only member to leave out a Bio on the city’s website. The Bio-information helped to personalize my message in speaking individually to each member. It was a surprise that the Mayor of Crestview sent a receipt after receiving my correspondence, duly noted. The impact on the family unit was the main point in attempting to reach the council members; they do not see the spouse or children of the registrant being targeted for special treatment. I do pray for a change in the hearts of this council.
@One way up
That gives me an idea. Each of you who show up, should arrive with at least one family member. Showing that instead of monsters, we have wives, husbands, and kids. Show that we are spouses, parents, grandparents, friends, co-workers, neighbors AND Tax payers.
Nothing like an upset, crying wife explaining how everyday she lives in fear of the police coming to take her husband away from the kids just because they got a flat tire in front of a school. And all this for laws that only apply to those who had sex offenses in the past and are no longer on probation. Nothing like tearing apart families for something called a civil matter but has criminal consequences.
Cheorokee:
The picture of him on the city’s website and his business are identical.
Social workers must meet certain standards to maintain their licenses. Obviously, his conduct is falling below that standard.
Banishment as written in a Constutional Law

Pennsylvania Law but can be added to Florida Law by amendment
Social Workers have have always been one sided and they do not live there profession but get it from an easy to do college course. Social Workers should come from street Experience and not college get rich quick scheme such as as court experts on any subject.
I will never trust any so called social worker who only have college and not real life experience.
He’s not the main guy behind it. He was the only one against it in the first meeting the guy with the bald head sitting to his right, I guess, facing us, was the one pushing it. It’s weird that he was the one to speak out against, it now when he spoke to the police officer his view completely changed, this whole thing smells of corruption. https://www.cityofcrestview.org/546/Agendas-Minutes Type in city Council meeting August 28, 2023 one hour and 19 minute mark to one hour 36 minute mark
