Panhandling at stop signs

New posts
So even if they have a permit, it's still gonna slow down traffic.

In our town people are getting tired of panhandling at intersections. I think this practice will be totally banned.
 
Couldn't agree more!!!
 
I vote we stop issuing panhandling permits altogether and fine any panhandling groups $500.
 
Since when do we get a vote on South Walton issues?
 
As reported by WZEP AM 1460:

Commissioners were told this past weekend there were people trying to collect money on the roadsides and intersections in southern Walton. Commissioner Comander agreed, saying this is dangerous and can’t continue. She also noted the people were from Okaloosa and should only be from Walton. There is a permitting process and one resident was told those collecting said they had a permit. Staff agreed they likely did not have a permit. Comander called it a huge problem. Commissioner Meadows called it dangerous. She said, if they do not have a permit, then one of the agencies should be able to go out and stop them. Calling it an emergency due to the danger, the commissioners agreed to not issue any more permits until after Labor Day.



Bunch of Rocket Scientist we have making up the Commish....
It took them this long to figure that out??? :sarc:
 
How many times a year does Sarah use this intersection?

Unreal.
 
According to Sara Commander (post 55) it appears the permits should only be to Walton County not for profits. Is this really the case? If so, how did the two id'd by Bob Hudson get approved permits?
 
There is an easy and realistic solution. Notify the permitted groups their permits are cancelled and return any fees they may have paid.
