But on Wednesday, a compromise plan that would divide Volusia County beaches into driving and no-driving zones took a major step toward final approval.

A supervisor for the U.S. Fish Wildlife Service granted what amounts to preliminary approval for the plan submitted by Volusia County to bolster protection for sea turtles and other plants and wildlife on beaches. David Hankla, field supervisor for Fish Wildlife's Jacksonville office, issued a statement saying there are no "outstanding issues" that would prevent his agency's endorsing the county's plan.

"It sounds like we are where we want to be," Volusia County Council Chairwoman Pat Northey said.

"I think we're going to be able to manage the beach the way we want to." Volusia officials began developing the habitat conservation plan last year after New Smyrna Beach residents Shirley Reynolds and Rita Alexander sued the county.
