So for the next 3 days we will have vendors driving on all our beaches in trucks?Due to unsettled weather forecasts with projected potential for storm surge, Walton County has extended temporary blanket authority to all permitted vendors to access the beach via public access locations for the sole purpose of removing equipment.
The blanket permit will be in effect from 12:00 p.m., August 30, 2016, until 5:00 p.m., Thursday, September 1, 2016.
Any vehicles used must be 4-wheel drive, licensed and insured, and must remain under 5 miles per hour while traversing the public beach.
For more information, contact the Walton County TDC Beach Operations Department at (850) 267-4578.
What a crock. Hope they don't run over any turtle nests or humans, as I've never seen them drive even close to 5 mph.
Far better solution is to get rid of all on-beach storage.
