    Another former county employee suing

    Once again poor culture brings predictable results and outcomes. I find it interesting that on other platforms even one of the commissioners weighed in and noted that “HR issues” are handled by the county administrator and it would not be appropriate to discuss in a public meeting though J Tusa...

    PCB passes ordinance: $500 fine if you enter Gulf under double red flags.

    Yes, dune lakes are a concern especially when there is a breakout - either natural or man-made. The call for people to exercise caution when they do breakout and not trusting the outflow -like the flags are many times unheeded. Unfortunately when a tragedy occurs like this -that you seem to be...

    PCB passes ordinance: $500 fine if you enter Gulf under double red flags.

    The flags posted along our 26 miles of the beach are the same. The conditions are evaluated at a minimum of twice per day to make the call. The scrutiny these guards go through when the flags/conditions are not to everyone’s liking or schedule is incredible. Not to mention the phone calls to...

    Its truly campaign season

    Follow up finds that currently there is no "requirement" for any new business to contact Mr. Sanchez. Many business are opened and still doing so without a fire safety review/inspection.

    Walton commissioners approve radio system

    Thank you for adding the additional account of what happened at the most recent BCC meeting. Basing any conclusion on what OK County does or doesnt do and the two poorly written storys that appeared in the paper previously were not going to present anything fair and balanced.

    Enforcing Beach Ordinances - Revenue Opportunity?

    Enforcing Beach Ordinances - Revenue Opportunity?

    I too am an advocate of enforcement. In my humble opinion I believe this is a shared responsibility between "locals" and "tourist", with locals setting an example. Some have observed that it is tourist letting their dogs poop on the beach. Unfortunately when I approached two seperate visitors...

    Stinky's Outfitter and Bait Shack is hiring!

    Thank you very much for the follow up. Pulling the cones back a bit helps but it is really not about the cones. I watched the valet guys park the large SUVs in the driveway opening and they back them up at least half-way across the path (last night) so it is more of a vehicle obstruction...

    Will the change free up parking so the valet doesn't have to back vehicles in on the Lake Place side and park on the bike path? Had a close call right around dark a month or so ago.
