They're at it again. Panhandling at 395 and 393 intersections with 30a and not even Walton County groups. Contacted Cindy Meadows and apparently the Sheriffs Dept. was not made aware that no panhandling was to be allowed, to hear them tell it- amazing inefficiencies of Walton County. Didn't we just go through this last year?
SOWAL Fire district just posted the newly amended code regarding this on face book..including this phrase.
"The Ordinance does allow for roadside fundraising with the appropriate permits. The Ordinance is also very specific and limits what types of fundraising can be conducted, who conducts them, locations and the times during the year that permits can be issued.
1. No permit for roadside fundraising will be granted to be held on holidays, any day prior to or immediately following a holiday or anytime between March 1 and September 15 of any year.
2. Roadside fundraising permits will not be granted to be conducted on at the following locations:
a. County Road 30A and any intersection on County Road 30-A
b. Scenic Gulf Drive (formerly known as Old U.S. Highway 98) and any intersection on Scenic Gulf Drive
c. U.S. Highway 98 and any intersection on U.S. Highway 98
It shall be unlawful for any person to engage in, participate in, form or start any roadside fundraising on any county road in Walton County without first obtaining a duly authorized roadside fundraising permit from Walton County Administration. " The post gives a link https://library.municode.com/index.aspx?clientId=12452 to the complete code.

I hate that. I always ask, "What organization are you associated with?" It's usually something I've never heard of, and I say, "No, thank you."
