ORMOND BEACH, Fla. — Today, the Volusia County Commission voted to permanently keep a certain area of Ormond Beach dog-friendly.
This came after the pilot program allowing dogs to be on the beach ended after the two-year trial period.
The area stretches from Rockefeller Drive and Andy Romano Park.
The commission stated they felt the pilot program was a huge success for the community.
The new dog beach will cost the county about $60,000 a year, but supporters say that the dog owners who visit will bring much more to the local economy.
