can Walton County split into a N and S district?

It came close by becoming the Reedy Creek Improvement District. Might as well be its own county. Reedy Creek Improvement District - Lake Buena Vista,Florida

They can even have their own nuclear power plant if they want.

...my present home is divided into two districts in one county. Two separate governing municipalities.

Care to tell us more about this? I've been to numerous County Govt meetings and have never heard of two separate governing municipalities for South Walton, much less one. As I understand it, all of South Walton falls under County Government, divided into two districts, but not two governing bodies. As others have stated, incorporating will create additional taxes for the redundancy of the services ie- city offices, city buildings, city police, city administrators, etc.

I believe this issue came up for real in the past 10 yrs or so. It made the NWF Daily News. It was shot down by the governor if I recall correctly. Of course I'm probably wrong and one of you can correct me.

one thing's for certain, the north would sure be missing the tax revenue from the south.

I think 30A should get it's own town name.

30Aville
30Aton
30Ass
30Aspot
30Alanta

Any takers?

Where is your home? Apparently you are currently staying with family in Seagrove meaning you may not even have a home in Walton County.

one thing's for certain, the south would sure be missing the fresh water piped
down south.

You mean those pumps south of the bay and north of 98? IIRC most of the wells are in the south end of the county.

I suppose Freport is considered the SOuth part of the county, I will venture to guess they might be PO'ed being considered that also. I think Freeport, Destin Water Users, South Walton Utilities and Regional Utilities all have a stake in the well/ wells in Freeport.

I'm told that Regional Utilities buys its water for South Walton from the City of Freeport. Also, the majority of the treated sewage water from South Walton is pumped to spray fields on the outskirts of Freeport.
