The Honorable Anita T. Rivers
Mayor, Town of White Springs

I have been on the White Springs Town Council for 3 years, serving as Mayor for 2 years and Vice Mayor for one year. I am married to my husband David for 32 years and we have two sons ages 26 and 18. Living in White Springs for 32 years has been wonderful and I love making a difference in my community. When I entered into office to fill a vacant seat, I thought I would only serve the term out, but after being on the Council for 6 months I learned so much and saw many ways to make my community better.

Some of my accomplishments include:

Hired a new Administration – Town Manager, Town Clerk, Administrative Assistant, Town Clerk and Fire Chief

Bringing the Town back from near bankruptcy and completing 2 audits that were 2 years behind.

Consent order issued to the Town by DEP in 2017 has been resolved

Mutual agreement with Hamilton County Sheriff Dept. for patrolling services

Reinstated the Volunteer Fire Dept. to a paid Dept.

Grant for resurfacing several streets in the Town

Awarded a CDBG Grant for Housing Rehabilitation
