The committee will review a request for more signage associated with the development and a reduction in parking requirements.

The Flagler county Tourist Development Council meets at 9 a.m. at the Government Services Building, 1769 East Moody Boulevard, Bunnell. The council is scheduled to vote on recommending a $739,000 capital grant to Palm Coast government to defray the cost of building six pickle courts at the city’s expanding racquet club off Belle Terre Parkway. This is the grant that drew significant attention after revelations that Flagler Beach failed to apply for a share. See:

“If constitutionalism-the common respect for the framework of law, and the acceptance of outcomes under due process-fails, or is rejected by significant sections of the society, then the entire framework of American society would collapse as well. It is in this sense that the last remaining ‘exceptionalism’ must persist.

–From “The End of American Exceptionalism” by Daniel Bell, National Affairs, Fall 1975.
