St. Petersburg Times, you disappoint. Growth management in Florida is a failure. If you think Ulmerton Road is beautiful, if you dislike trees, by all means stick with the current system. Florida will become one long strip mall, and who will come here then? But at least there will be plenty of minimum wage jobs.
The Hometown Democracy amendment would give voters more control over growth. If you don't like this solution, do you have a better one? Until someone does, I'm putting my money on Hometown Democracy. If developers want to file lawsuits so be it. The future of our state is on the line.
