→Connections to County land deal
Commissioner [[Mike Whitehead]] dismissed Touart's nondisclosure as "just an oversight," but added, "in this post-W.D. era, we just got to have disclosures on this stuff." Commissioner Robinson said, "The worst thing it did is we are trying to build trust with the people and this pushes us back and we've lost trust."<ref name="future"/>
On [[August 23]], [[2007]], the County Commission voted to cancel the land deal. At the same meeting, the Commission also voted to put off until [[September 6]] any decision on reprimanding or penalizing Touart for his lack of disclosure. The ''Pensacola News Journal'' has published an editorial calling for Touart's retirement.<ref name="retire">"Time for Touart to retire as county administrator".
