Many people don't know that tents larger than 6 feet square aren't allowed as of April 1. Violations bring $100 fines.

There are irresponsible people and people who don't think the rules apply to them everywhere. Clear, concise rules and consistent ENFORCEMENT (with some teeth) are typically the only way to convince those types of people to 1) think before they act and 2) follow the rules.

Sounds like we have as big a problem with lorons as we do with tourons....at least tourons leave.And when we do, your economic status changes. Don't bite the hand that feeds you. If you hate tourists move somewhere else.

Is it really worthwhile to do that? According to what I have read before one of your big politicians family owns a chair and umbrella service. You can't fight that kind of political raping.

Yes Cecilia Jones son owes a chair and umbrella service. Many of the silly ordinances were created to protect vendors.

No she doesn't vote the loudest...she isn't allowed to vote on anything vendor related.

You shouldn't have been allowed to have a say in anything vendor related but you do.

And just who do you think I am? I can have a say in anything I want...thats the luxury of being a private citizen. Mrs. Jones can have a say in whatever she wants as well. But when it's time to vote it doesn't amount to a hill of beans because she can't vote!!!

I have no idea what the above means....I wasn't lamenting that we have tourists. In fact, I like many tourists much more than I do some locals. I was using the stupid "touron" word made up by some disgruntled SOWALer is posts gone by, and adding my own spin-off word "loron" (local moron) to address those from this area that bash others for their "stupidity" but, by their own words, miss their own shortcomings. Sorry....
Are you the codes enforcement useless B I saw driving down the beahc today?
FU People need to know how to take care of our precious wildlife at the beach. If you aren't smart enough to research it, leave your fishing rod at home! Catching something on the beach that draws a crowd is not important if you are stupid enough to leave the hook in its mouth. That is just cruel!

Bowing to pressure - Walton County now allows tents up to 10' X 10'.
