Chief Operating Officer Billy Skaggs and Food Safety Division Director Oscar Garrison both resigned from the state’s Department of Agriculture on March 30.
WABE has contacted the department about the resignations but has yet to receive a response.
However, department spokeswoman Mary Katheryn Yearta told the Gainsville Times the resignation involved a personnel investigation.
The Times also reports Yearta says it was an internal matter that she couldn’t discuss.
Skaggs’ and Garrison’s departures have left many in the state’s agricultural community wondering what happened.
