Aggressive developers are turning a blind eye to the need to preserve habitat for the over 50 endangered and threatened species who live in our own back yards.
With the advent of high density housing and population growth, (Our community will nearly triple in numbers), comes an enormous strain on the current infrastructure.
With the proposed high density expansion our population will nearly triple, turning the quaint agricultural landscape into suburban sprawl.
It is imperative that we hold our county representatives to task and ensure we have the resources needed to support what has already been rezoned for future development.
Our embattled Caloosahatchee River and our Coastal Estuaries are at a breaking point environmentally. We are continuing to pollute the river with effluent wastewater and fertilizers all related to the current population density.
