CRESTVIEW — City Hall gave residents an inside look at the offices of elected officials, department heads and the mayor during an open house event Monday night.

Residents could visit the council chambers and the offices of council members and Mayor David Cadle to meet with the people who make the city run and learn about what each of their jobs entail.

This event kicked off a week of events for Florida City Government Week, organized by the Florida League of Cities.

"Through Florida City Government Week, the League hopes to bring awareness to city government’s role in enhancing the quality of life in communities," according to the FLC website.
