I would have pasted the proposed "resolution" here, but it comes up in a PDF. You can access it on the internet by going first to the county's home page, Walton County, FL - Home Page, click on "Your Government", then click on "Agendas and Meetings" and select the drop down box for Commission Agendas. Choose Aug 11, and when the file comes up, you can click on the agenda item at 4:15 pm for attorney Miller and read the "resolution."
I understand from a friend who was at the meeting that Miller told the BCC he did not intend to ask for approval of the resolution, but for the setting of a public hearing about it. There were two attorneys there in opposition, but the BCC did in fact set the hearing to take place at the Sept 22 BCC meeting, which as it happens is in DeFuniak.
Never mind that this has already been settled in court. It just goes to show, like Jay Odom again asking for that state forest corner in Grayton, that some people just never give up.
If they can't get there one way, they will try another.
No matter seems to be every fully resolved in this county. It reminds me of that whack the popping heads game in the arcade. You whack one down, and another one pops up somewhere else.
