Anchorage decision in Destin Harbor faces city council reversal
Okaloosa County commissioners reversed a plan to designate an anchorage in Old Pass Lagoon by a 4-1 vote as opposition argued. The coming Destin City Council could overturn this, with Chair Larry Andors noting it is possible once new officials are elected. Coast Guard backed the anchorage as enhancing marine safety, while residents and Holiday Isle owner Homer Urquhart urged withdrawal citing dock interference and transient concerns.
