SAMPLE
LETTER to the Martin County Commission: I object to the
Martin County Comp Plan “AgTEC” Amendment which creates a
new, unwanted AgTEC land use that violates the 4-story building
height limit and creates the dangerous precedent of connecting our
development to Port St. Lucie sprawl rules and creating jobs for
Port St. Lucie at Martin County taxpayer expense.
Martin
County’s Comp Plan is proving its value with lower foreclosures,
less unemployment and higher wages and lower debt & taxes from
Port St. Lucie. We do not want Port St. Lucie rules spilling over
into Martin County communities.
Rescind
this amendment. You have done it before. Use the legal
challenge to do the right thing for MARTIN COUNTY and stop
favoring Port St. Lucie.

Each of the Commissioners claims to support the 4-Story Building Height Limits. The hearing presentations did not tell them that the new AgTEC Land Use failed to include the height limit.
The Commissioners have never said they were willing to convert parts of Martin County to Port St. Lucie sprawl. The hearing presentations did not remind them of the annexation concerns.
After all we are a democracy - so powerful special interests should not push citizens around and make us do things we don't want to do.
There are endless ways you can get involved :
Watch MCTV.
- Go to the meetings. Tell them what you think.
- Talk to your neighbors. Ask them if they want to preserve the 4 Story height limit and the Martin County difference.
- Write letters to the editor. Stuart News or Palm Beach Post
- Email your commissioners. This email goes to all of them: commissioners@martin.fl.us
- Coin bumper stickers.
- Give us your ideas.
- Make noise!
