Tell Gov. Crist: Veto SB 360!

SB 360 threatens to gut growth management regulations, leaving Florida taxpayers to foot the bill for transportation and infrastructure costs incurred by more unnecessary development.

Enough already! As Floridians, we're sick and tired of seeing our great state run by developers, our state's natural treasures plundered, and quality of life diminished.

Add your name below to the growing list of Floridians who are against SB 360 and for preserving our quality of life.

Our Letter to Gov. Crist

Dear Gov. Crist,

We, the undersigned Floridians, have had enough of big developers putting their interests ahead of the people of Florida.

We urge you to veto SB 360, a bill that threatens to gut growth management regulations, leaving Florida taxpayers to foot the bill for transportation and infrastructure costs incurred by more unnecessary, unsustainable development.

We're tired of sitting in traffic, watching our environment getting eaten away by urban sprawl, and seeing our property tax dollars help subsidize unnecessary development instead of public schools, and improvements to existing infrastructure.

Please veto SB 360 and stand up for the public interest!

Sincerely,
[Your Name]

"It is simply not appropriate to allow any small city or town, or any county no matter how rural, to establish a safe haven for large scale land development activities that escape the DRI [Development of Regional Impact] process where no nexus exists to an already dense urban area."
