Here is a novel idea to keep private enterprise from beating the system on public beaches...

What about using TDC funding?

Worst idea ever! Said momma sea turtle and 99% of beach-loving humans.

How about use TDC funding to make beaches public AND keep crap off the beaches?

That is the best "I have a dream" speech ever! Love it! You will draw the wrath of Jones though and her husband can be pretty "threatening".

Agree on the sea turtles and humans too.

I think anytime someones livelihood is threatened it evokes pretty strong emotions. That's another 2 way street.

I agree with Kurt though and most of you, get rid of those damn chairs.

Why can't we sell franchises at each access and allow only the franchisee to provide chairs and setups at that location. They have to rent them from a kiosk and the customer takes them and sets them up. Then you only have on the beach those setups that have actually been rented. Just a thought but I wanted to see what the drawbacks are.

Sounds like good sense to me.

As we have seen on the east end, we MUST address the fact that some(absent) beach front home owners are giving vendors permission to set up in their backyard
#contractwiththedevil. We must address this in our drive to Band Vendors in totality. Anyone have any idea how many separate vendors there are on 30A anyway?

"...Said momma sea turtle...". You softie! :wave:

So what proposal do you have in mind on how TDC could make the beaches public using TDC funding?
