Destin Resident Seeks Federal Funds for Bus Shelter Prototype
Destin resident Pete Vasso received county approval for a concrete and block school bus shelter at Benning Drive and Kelly Street on a county easement. He has raised over 800 dollars in contributions and more than 1,000 in pledges and aims to build future shelters with federal grants. The Destin Community Center, however, voted to deny funds for the initial shelter, calling such facilities eyesores if not maintained. Vasso vows to maintain the 8 by 16 foot structure, with brick veneer, and envisions a future mini bus service serving students and the public.
