October 6, 2025 – Flagler County has recently learned that our Deputy County Administrator Jorge Salinas died in a horrific crash. There are no additional details available to be released at this time.
“Jorge was a very strong partner in leading Flagler County,” Administrator Heidi Petito said. “I can’t even imagine the depth of his loss to our community or the pain his children and family must feel. He is already missed.”
The Board of County Commissioners share that sentiment.
“I am very saddened,” said Chair Andy Dance. “A significant void has been created in our Flagler County community. He was a trusted and respected member of the leadership team. My heart goes out to his children and family. Thank you, Jorge, for your service to us and your country.”
