‘Marinas Are Dead for Now!’ County Rejects Proposal That Would Have Facilitated Huge Boat-Storage Facility in Scenic A1A

October 4, 2021 | FlaglerLive | 15 Comments

John Russell, who's co-owned Hammock Hardware for over four decades and whose property adjoines that of the proposed, controversial boat-storage facility at the heart of a land-use amendment, had one message for the County Commission today as he lifted a petition containing 1,200 names:

The Flagler County Commission today voted 3-1 to reject adoption of a controversial land-use amendment that would have allowed marinas in such areas as Scenic A1A, in essence further clearing the way for a controversial 240-boat storage facility next to Hammock Hardware. The vote was the latest victory for the Hammock Community Association, which has been opposing the already litigated facility.
