No, what she said was that since there is not a present need/demand for NEW commercial perhaps we could focus their apparently limited time on getting their backlog cleared....................then deal with the issue.

It is not the role of government to decide if there is a need or demand. That appears to be something that the Obamacrats want to do, but not a function of government.

It all started when he abandoned us for Bay County. But even his actions agree. He went their for the beautiful high rises, drive thru eating venues, and stuff to do.

Rumor has it we should be seeing McDonald's or Burger King soon- I think it is in Blue Mountain Beach. Er maybe it was Seagrove. No, my memory fails me- it was Burger King and it will be in Seacrest.

haha- I kid.

Even though I don't understand the proposed changes enough to form an opinion- I believe we need to be extremely careful whatever changes are implemented!!!!!!

Any comments on the 9/7 meeting?

25 room hotel use was changed to B&B not to exceed 10 rooms.

Here's the reworded location criteria. Note the addition of paved street and designation of major roads south of 30A.

"Location criteria: The intersection of arterial/collector, collector/collector, and collector/local ****paved street.**** However, in areas south of the Choctawhatchee Bay and the Intercoastal Waterway, NC designations shall be limited to those intersection areas described above that are within the designated Scenic Corridors. *****For purposes of this policy, County Road 83 and County Road 283, south of County Road 30A, shall not be considered as designated Scenic Corridors.**** This limitation shall not prevent the designation of an existing neighborhood development as NC if such development was lawfully in operation prior to the date of adoption of this amendment, is an ongoing business, or for properties designated Residential Preservation on the adopted Future Land Use Map that were designated on a plat or in covenants and restrictions for non-residential use. However, such designation must meet the compatibility requirements contained herein."

Here's the reworded info regarding music. Basically no music allowed unless specifically approved by the BCC.

"Outdoor storage, outdoor broadcasting or music, display of goods, or outdoor seating for caf?s and restaurants is prohibited, unless specifically approved as part of the development order review process by the Board of County Commissioners on a case-by-case determination of its impact on the abutting neighborhood and where it does not conflict with the Scenic Corridor Guidelines."
