Title: Saint Lucie County Riders Post by: indianjoe on April 26, 2005, 04:41:27 PM In September 2004, St. Lucie County "postponed indefinitely", any decisions about the proposed ATV Park. Postponement was due to Storm Cleanup.
The county has been able to deal with many issues since, including, soliciting RFP"S for a designer to expand the Fairwinds Golf Course which is next to the property which was being looked at for the ATV Park. (Done on Jan. 11, 2005) It is time to revitalize the effort to open this ATV Park. There are now two new commissioners on the board. The commission needs to hear from supporters of this project. Please call or e-mail the commissioners and show the need for this facility. It is important they see the number of Saint Lucie County residents who are involved with ATV'S and Dirt Bikes. Identify yourself as a Saint Lucie County resident and voter. Support can also be shown by writing letters to the editors of, "The Tribune" or "Palm Beach Post", Treasure Coast addition. Commissioners Phone E-Mail Dist. 1-Joe Smith- -462-1410-Joe_Smith@co.st.-lucie.fl.us Dist. 2-Doug Coward-462-1412-cowardd@co.st-lucie.fl.us Dist. 3-Paula Lewis-462-1406-barbarab@co.st-lucie.fl.us Dist. 4-Frannie Hutchinson-462-1451-liz@co.st-lucie.fl.us Dist. 5-Chris Craft-462-1408--ODonnelE@co.st-lucie.fl.us Please take the time to send an E-mail, make a phone, or write a letter to the editor. The same amount of time it takes to complain about no where to ride can possibly make a difference. Flyers are being distributed at the three local Saint Lucie County ATV/Bike Dealers with this same meassge. If you operate a business in SLC and would like to have some flyers, PM me with the info and I will bring some your way. SPREAD THE WORD.
