Flagler County government has filed suit to condemn and demolish the long-derelict, yellowed motel that’s vexed law enforcement, residents and county code enforcement officials for years near Dixie Commons along South Old Dixie Highway, not far from the interchange with I-95.

Daytona Beach Police Chief Jakari Young also said there are liars among the members of FAITH, a nonprofit organization made up of 30 diverse local houses of worship that pushes community leaders to tackle problems ranging from homelessness to substance abuse treatment in jail. Young won t attend FAITH s annual meeting, either.
