Florida Growth Tests Lawmakers As Coast Population Surges

Florida faces rapid growth with up to 2000 newcomers weekly. Speaker designate James Harold Thompson warns legislators must plan water, sewage, waste, and transportation policy while education costs rise. He foresees tax shifts and a December special session to address the unitary tax repeal and corporate taxes, with committee leadership to follow.

Ocean City Wright to dispatch for other departments

Ocean City Wright plans to dispatch for other departments to offset dispatcher costs. Cobb says four dispatchers are minimum and hopes to add a fifth with Destin joining. Destin will link via phone 837-6715 and pay about 2700 dollars for line installation and call recorders, though they will not handle Destin's business calls.

Destin to share maps and street list with Ocean City Wright

Destin will provide Ocean City Wright with community maps hydrant locations and an alphabetical street list with cross streets. Cobb notes a adjustment period as dispatchers learn the Destin area. A new antenna will extend reach toward the Walton County line and if the central dispatch system is funded, fire phones at homes will be removed while local phones remain.
