The City of Destin is considering a request for free parking for the Blessing of the Youth event. This event is planned for May 13, from 6 PM to 8 PM at Harborwalk Village. The specific request is to provide free parking for youth attendees at the Destin Community Center during the event hours. This item is currently under review by the City Council. If approved, the project would involve managing parking access and potentially signage at the Destin Community Center. Local businesses involved in event services, parking management, or community outreach could find opportunities. Early engagement with city staff or event organizers may provide insight into specific needs as the review process continues.
