Escambia County Commissioner Jeff Bergosh is pursuing more clarification on the 75-foot public beach easement on Perdido Key and whether it applies to more than the 64 lots uncovered last week.
“We got to get the lawyers involved in some of this stuff,” said Commissioner Bergosh. “But meanwhile, I want to liberate that beach, Rick. We know 64 parcels have the language. That could potentially allow us to put lifeguards out there so we don’t see the tragedies that we’ve seen recently.”
He added, “We’re on a hunt. We’re going to find these titles, Rick,and we’re going get to the bottom of it, and if possible, we’re going open up that beach for the public.”
