Beach Access Discussion That Was Postponed.....

The below pictured options will be discussed at an upcoming meeting of the Board of County Commissioners. Our Committee of the Whole meeting that was scheduled yesterday was canceled due to Hurricane Michael.

But once we get this meeting rescheduled, the below options will be discussed. One option that appears to be the least expensive and the easiest to permit would be option 1(A) Clustered, which would provide 24 parking spots at our soon to be opened beach access at Perdido Key.

My personal preference is option 1(B) Expanded, below, because it gives us nearly 40 parking spaces at an effective cost per space that is nearly $1,500.00 per space less than option 1(A).

Can't wait to have this discussion, can't wait to give staff the guidance they need to #OpenOurBeach!
