Residents in Inlet Beach and 30A tell NewsChannel 7 they are getting increasingly frustrated with the amount of people parking illegally in their neighborhoods to get to the beach.
St. Joe Co. has received a warning letter from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection regarding problems at its Watersound Origins project.
With a 3-2 vote Tuesday Commissioners Tony Anderson and Trey Nick dissented, with Commissioners Danny Glidewell, Mike Barker and William McCormick in favor the commission decided to add language to county-issued vendor permits that would clearly note that vending to the public on residentially zoned property is not authorized, and could expose the vendor to legal proceedings.
The commission vote also set in motion the possibility that the county could amend its land development code, if needed, to effectively curtail vending to the public from private residential property. In connection with that aspect of Tuesday s vote, Commissioner Danny Glidewell noted a need to ensure that the land development code clearly describes beach vending as a business.
