This is very close to my house, so I will be attending. I have only a few thing I question about SFWMD practices. If anyone wants to email me docs to review, I will give them an ear full on your behalf.

jack, holey lands is actually owned by SFWMD and Managed by FWC. They are trying to shut it down to ATV use, trust me. SFWMD is our "ANTICHRIST". They were found guilty in June of 2005 By a federal magistrate of polluting into the everglades. One of their board member is a VP of US sugar.They gave a developer here in Collier county permits to mine on lands set aside for conservation. They gave a miami developer a permit to build 600 condos in Belle Meade in the "restoration area". They told another developer that if they filled the "swamp buggy tract" here in Naples, they would give them a permit to build a golf course in sensitive wetlands. They issued a permit to build 25,000 new homes in the middle of panther habitat, even hotels are going to be build there, but my atv damages the environment?. There are two commissioners, one from Collier and one from Lee that want their board to be fired and replaced with an "elected " board. They have said that developers building in the "restoration" area will help with the water flow. THEY ARE THE MOST CORRUPTED GOVERNMENT ENTITY THAT HAS EVER BEEN ASSEMBLED ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. e-mail me @ LSWJTH2@YAHOO.COM and i will send you info. Oh one last thing. SFWMD owns over 300,00 + acres. The only land they could find to give Collier county is a place where they are dredging the bottom of lake trafford and dumping  the gunk onto the land because it was killing all marine life. It has already been shown that the arsenic level is past the maximum value established by the FEDS, but that's where they want our kids to ride. This one will be an easy one to win in court....
