The BFOs all say the county should get more "public" access... NIMBY for sure. The county has owned this property for a while havent they?

Walton County had the property under lease from the Bureau of Land Management beginning in 1992, then it was conveyed to Walton County about seven years ago.

What is the residents' objection to developing the access? Let me guess, an increase risk of damage from storms. BS. We all know they simply don't want people on "their" beach.

They're alleging that dune systems will be destroyed and their neighboring property will be adversely impacted, along with danger associated with plans for a cul-de-sac turnaround.
Mitigation for what? Why not land at the front of the development we could access instead of the rear behind a gate?

Thanks for the info. I suppose it would make sense for the county to remove it from their beach access inventory. It borders the state park so perhaps it should be given to the state to extend their boundary a bit.

When the county approved acquiring the Stallworth property, don't recall it being stated that it would be just for beach mice. See page 16-21 of the BCC minutes: http://www.clerkofcourts.co.walton.fl.us/document_center/Minutes/Regular_Meetings/20021022.pdf
