Residents Say Drainage Pact Falls Short
Lakeside Village residents, Okaloosa County engineer Dave Heinrich and DEA official Dave Villane met to review a 600 foot grass swale and 3100 feet of pipe planned along Airport Road to divert runoff toward a marsh near Lake Bell Aire. Residents say the agreement still leaves debris and nutrient concerns unaddressed, with questions about inlets and the Destin Airport drainage. Villane pledged a decision after review with possible administrative hearing rights for appeal.
