Beach driving may be expanded

[miznotebook]

More beach driving permits may be issued to individuals next year during Walton County's beach driving permitting period, which begins in June. County commissioners voted on July 27 to have staff develop recommendations on criteria for opening beach driving permits to additional individuals. Currently no new beach driving permits are being issued, just renewals, and the deadline for those is Aug. 1. The staff recommendations will be brought before the commissioners in public session, but no date has been set as of now.

Great news. If that happens, we'll resume looking at real estate in Grayton again.

After all the oil spill business, now we want vehicles leaking oil on the beach? Bad idea.

That's one way to ensure more oil on the beach.

You should take your vehicle to a mechanic.

They should issue an unlimited number of driving permits but limit the number of vehicles that can be on the beach at any one time. That would be Constitutional, fair, and make way more money than what they are doing now, imho.

How would you limit the number of vehicles on the beach without incurring a cost?
