Hey now. I do get jealous when my homies come to work with biscuit wrappers and Whataburger cups and crumbs on their shirt, while my tummy rumbles.
The tradeoff is that they are jealous that I didn't have to drive 35 miles to come to work.
Do We Desperately Need Drive-Thrus?

...I feel like I am stalking you! I am definitely thinking about whataburger for dinner tonight. I am a bachelorette this evening.
I think we need to have dinner this week. I desperately need a drink.
I'd sure like to see a fast food drive thru somewhere convienient in SoWal! Particularly on occasions whe I don't feel presentable to go inside! The placement it seems to me would be dictated by the owner of the property!
Fortunately, for the rest of us, "The Comprehensive Plan is a very frustrating, tedious, seemingly unending, work of hulabaloo!" to you. Furthermore it appears there are "...so many things going on business wise, it's difficult to take the time and energy to go." Seems you may also be challenged to locate or open the provided link for county meetings.
Hmmm, just quoting what I read somewhere else. :roll:

I don't understand the sudden need for fast food to be 5 minutes closer to this area? If you really want Whaddleburger, McBesities, or Taco Hell they are all right in Miramar Beach. Are we really that desperate for fast food on 30-A? Perhaps we can plow down that little building across the street from Regional Utilities and they can drop in one of those lovely prefab fast food buildings. Luckily polyester stretches so the SWHS students who work there won't have to work about tight clothes as they swell from the "food" they get to eat on their breaks.
There are plenty of chubby high schoolers, I don't think McDonald's has anything to do with it, how about tech gadgets!
When the comprehensive plan first came out, it packed the building. People were infuriated at the notion. Through the years, it is apparent to many that they are going to do it anyway. Confidence is low to believe that reality will ever be a vital factor in the decisions made. The ones truly benefiting are the planners hired to dream up all this.
Back to original topic. At last night's Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Dpt. requested that consideration and discussion of the 98 drive thru ordinance be continued. PC Chair Tom Terrell stated that the ordinance, when it is brought forth for consideration, will be for 98 and not for 30A.
It was a long and fractious meeting, so I don't remember precise details, but I think the dicussion was continued to a date certain of the next regular PC meeting, which I think is April 9. Should be posted on county website.
So far, I've not seen even a draft of this ordinance. Hoping they get it onto county website soon so everyone can have a look.
I offer my public appreciation to the folks who attended the PC's EAR based amendment meeting yesterday afternoon, folks who made the effort to read the materials ahead of time and ask questions that needed to be asked. These same people have attended scads of EAR meetings we've been having for many months now, and they also typically attend most or all of our regular monthly PC meetings. I don't recall seeing any new faces yesterday afternoon or last night. Where are the Sowallers?
