IMO we would already have a 4 lane 331 if the same old players hadn't been spending their time and our tax money trying to make themselves more money at our expense with a private toll bridge.
Why don't they use the BP money to partially fund the county's share, it's sure to be wasted on something stupid that everybody's brother-in-law will profit from.
Fish are good, no doubt, but isn't the business of South Walton County bringing peeps down from up north, and 85% of them don't care a crap about fish.
The BP money has strings attached.
Generally speaking, those funds have to go to ecosystems that were impacted by the oil spill.
