In a Bullard-written letter that was partially read by Mayor J.B. Whitten at the Dec. 8 council meeting, Bullard said he would be resigning from the council on Dec. 31 because of growing professional obligations, personal responsibilities, and ongoing health considerations.
Bullard, who was elected to his four-year Precinct 2 council seat in 2022, is a licensed mental health therapist and the founder and clinical director of BeHealthy Counseling in Crestview.
Precinct 2 covers the city limits south of Interstate 10. Bullard’s term expires next November.
Eligible candidates seeking to serve the remainder of Bullard’s term must be at least 18 years old, a United States citizen, and a resident of Precinct 2, and also must hold an Okaloosa County voter registration card.
All applicants must submit their application by 5 p.m. Jan. 2.
