I don't know all the details, but I hear a Federal Court in New York has issued an order to stop construction. A group of pilots opposed to the project brought the case to the court. Somebody who knows more can fill in the blanks.
I live on the Bay-Walton line and spend as much time in PC as Destin. Panama City has always fought any kind of growth. The current airport is an eyesore. The company that built Rosemary wants to buy the old airport, which Im sure would make it more aesthetically pleasing. This airport is a win-win situation but the rednecks will fight tooth and nail, and I do mean tooth as in 1.
On the contrary, Bay County consistently favors developers over the interest of its citizens and without regard to the impact unregulated growth has on the environment. Drive down Front Beach Road. Either there's no beach, or there's ugly "renourished" brown sand which would not have been needed had there been proper setback lines.I live on the Bay-Walton line and spend as much time in PC as Destin.

Its not just the airport but all the land going into conservation, the audubon park...... St. Joe could break that land up into huge parcels and sell it to lord knows what.
