The sheriff of Walton County, Fla., wants county commissioners there to adopt an ordinance banning non-residence from county beaches during peak times, according to WJHG.
Sheriff Mike Adkinson told commissioners Tuesday his deputies responded to nearly 700 calls on the Fourth of July, with large crowds gathered on local beaches at the crux of the issue. The sheriff’s department is also investigating a fight reported at Seagrove beach which involved more than 100 teenagers, according to the report.
“For the purpose of high intensity, high traffic areas or times, that we go ahead and make a decision to allow the sheriff’s office to close accesses to people who do not live in Walton County,” Adkinson said, adding that the measure would reduce large crowds on the beach, particularly at night. While commissioners consider Adkinson’s request for an ordinance, he suggested his office may in the interim use their police powers to restrict access to the beaches.
