Residents pledge fight over zoning petition in Walton County
Walter Blessey presented Walton County officials with a 70 sign petition seeking Beach Highlands and Dane Allen area as a neighborhood conservation district as the county prepares a performance zoning ordinance. He argues this limits land use and protects the area’s character amid proposed high density. If officials ignore the petition a legal challenge is possible.

Walton zoning scope may broaden with public input
Walton County supervisor Dewey Wilson urged South County residents to weigh in on the proposed zoning ordinance ahead of a late summer vote. He said citizen input could broaden rules on garbage storage and pickup leash requirements for animals and aesthetic codes for house trailers. He noted strong support for Neighborhood Conservation Districts in Four Mile Village Beach Highlands and Grayton Beach, aiming to protect subdivisions while allowing compatible uses under performance zoning.
