SCHOOL BOARD CANDIDATE Where does Linard Johnson live? Candidacy papers say District 1, but he spends most days and nights elsewhere.
By COREY ARWOOD [email protected]
A School Board candidate calls a house on 10 acres in Fort White his farm and his church but not his home, though he admits spending most of the last two years there doing renovations and keeping his belongings safe from thieves. Now Linard Johnson is combating claims he doesn’t live in the hotly con- tested school board district he’s campaigning for. Johnson was at his farm Friday fielding questions about his residency and talking about the upcoming primary. A retired teacher, he’s now a real estate investor, cattle rancher and pastor of New Beginnings Christian Fellowship Church, whose 8-12 member congregation meets at the property every Sunday, he said. Johnson previously sat two terms as District 1 school board member but lost to current incumbent Danny Green in 2014. The farm is one of 12 properties Johnson said he currently owns and has occupied periodically over the years.

Johnson tied for Canadian Open lead
OAKVILLE, Ontario (AP) — Top-ranked Dustin Johnson used a fast start and a late eagle to grab a share of the lead Saturday in the RBC Canadian Open. Johnson shot a 7-under 65 at Glen Abbey to match Kevin Tway, Byeong Hun An and Whee Kim at 17-under 199. Johnson birdied the first three holes and five of the first six, then rebounded from two back-nine bogeys with a bird- ie-birdie-eagle run. SUNDAY, JULY 29, 2018 SPORTS LAKE CITY REPORTER 3B
