Murman, Grant, Collins Seek Appointments

Lobbyist and former state senator John Grant Jr. is seeking a seat on the problem-plagued Tampa Expressway Authority, and former state Rep. Sandy Murman and unsuccessful legislative candidate Jill Collins are applying for a seat on the Tampa Port Authority.
Grant has applied to Gov. Charlie Crist for appointment to the expressway authority seat along with lawyer Daniel L. Molloy and real estate developer Donald E. Phillips.
Murman and Collins have applied for the port authority seat, also appointed by Crist.
Murman ran unsuccessfully for the state Senate in 2006. Collins has run for the state House and has sought appointment to the Tampa City Council and the elections supervisor’s office.

The Port Authority appoinment is not going to either one Murman or Collins, Governor Crist has another person in mind for this appointment.

Governor Crist is not considering placing Gladstone “Tony” Cooper back on the Tampa Port Authority, so he need not apply for a re-appointment. Givernor is looking for someone who will be able to work in harmony and will be able to assist with creating further economic stimulation at the Tampa Port, with a knowledge of teh state and local business community.
