Flagler County put the brakes on hurricane parties by issuing an emergency order suspending the sale of alcohol.
Bars, restaurants, liquor stores and grocery stores are prohibited from selling alcohol until the order is lifted.
“We don’t need hurricane parties going on that drive disturbances, and we don’t need you driving impaired while people are trying to evacuate,” Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly told the Palm Coast Observer.
Flagler County suspended the sale of alcohol starting at 7 a.m. Sunday and expanded its curfew from just beachside residents to include the entire county.
The curfew will be in effect from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. until further notice.
Flagler County bridges will close at 6 p.m. Sunday.
