A Better South Walton (ABSW) will be holding two town hall meetings to educate and engage the local community in discussions surrounding incorporation. The meetings will be held in Miramar Beach on November 14^th and 17^th at 5:30 PM.

The town hall meetings, which are free and open to the public, are designed for members of the community to ask questions and get a better understanding of incorporation and what benefits it would bring to the residents of South Walton. Questions about taxation, municipal organization and the long term goals of an incorporated South Walton will all be addressed. The process for incorporation will also be explained. Every resident of the South Walton community is welcome and encouraged to attend.

“We’ve seen the substantial growth of South Walton and it is the community’s responsibility to take control of its future,” states David Pleat, president of A Better South Walton. “We need to get your feedback, answer your questions and better educate our community on why this issue is so important to the long term sustainability of South Walton. Please join us for one of these upcoming meetings and make your voice heard.”

The meetings will be held:

Monday, November 14^th

Thursday, November 17^th
