A Better South Walton Proposed Charter

[Jerry Lewis]

Just an observation: Multi-word city/town names often gets shortened (ex. Fort Walton instead of Fort Walton Beach), so it seems like the fewer words, the better. For instance, Beach Villages seems better than "Villages of" or "City of" and so on. Whatever it gets named, I hope the powers that be will consider what a shortened version of the name might be. Of course, we could always be named Beaches, FL and that says it all!

Fort Walton Beach is FoWal.

Fort Walton. AKA Camp Walton...specifically added "Beach" to its name (back in thd 1950's or 60's I believe) to attract tourism.

I hope those charged with this task don't try to get too cool with it. Keep it simple.
Like:
The City of Santa Rosa Beach, Florida

Your address would be:
"Santa Rosa Beach, Florida"
Like it is today.

I guess I've been exposed to so many Santa Rosa names (CA, NM, Santa Rosa County, Santa Rosa Sound to name a few off the top of my head) that I'd like to see something different, but I get your point about keeping it simple.
