The boat ramps located at the Downtown Marina and the St Andrews Marina will remain open to the public. Panama City Commissioners passed a resolution on it at Tuesday's meeting.

PANAMA CITY, Fla. - A controversial topic of discussion in Panama City can finally be put to rest.

Commissioners approved a resolution to keep the boat ramps located at the St Andrews Marina and the Downtown Marina open. “We made a resolution, which is about the fullest extent the Commission could do,” Commissioner Josh Street said. “I don’t know of anything else we could do to reassure the general public other than what we did today.”

City leaders said passing the resolution will give people more water access. Maintaining parking spaces for boaters is also part of the resolution. Commissioners said at least 50 spaces will be dedicated to boaters at the Downtown Marina. A minimum of 13 spots will be maintained at the St Andrews Marina.

“So, it’s really only going to become a problem as we continue to revitalize,” Commissioner Jenna Haligas said. “We wanted to protect the boaters by putting in 50 dedicated spots. Where those will be once it’s just thriving and wonderful? We don’t know yet, but we’ve made the commitment to have dedicated boat parking.”Commissioners said they have a vision of building a parking garage at some point in the future.
