Building Height limits...a sky's dream

Posted by Non Performing Songwriters Group on September 24, 2007 at 1:47 PM
Will the city commissions throughout Florida do the responsible thing by stopping the continuous ruin of the beautiful beachside areas? A plan to limit development of buildings to height of 3-5 stories is smart. Doesn't anyone think of the 7 generation rule? How what WE do in this lifetime will affect the next 7 generations afterwards? Shading of the beaches will change things, also the traffic and pollution from the traffic, and what about waste management? How will that be affected.

I see building into the sky higher than a responsible height as nothing more than greed. "Pack 'em in!"... cause the city/county gets the taxes from each apartment/condo/hotel room. But how does it really benefit us as residents? There isn't any real economy here in some of these areas anyway- so who is gonna afford these condos? What type of people will it bring. What scares me the MOST as a longtime beach resident is thinking my home sweet home will one day look like Miami or NY. A concrete parking lot surrounded by water, what's left of it after I am sure fill will be used eventually to put more marinas and condos in the intracoastal waterways.
 
Hey Commissioners! Please STOP this from happening. The developers don't need to decide HOW Floridians should live, but rather WE should decide how they build.
