Paving the Glades for What?

This issue of "hold the line" is so important to us locally. I spoke in front of the MDC Commission on this a few years ago. If you care about the earth/the Everglades/your home/water, you'll care about this.

Hold The Line House Party
Date: February 20, 2008

Time: 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Location: Show map
Doc Thomas House 5530 Sunset DriveMiami, FL 33143

Tropical Audubon Society cordially invites you to a Hold the Line Campaign Party at the Historic Doc Thomas House. In 2006, Hold the Line and citizens like you defeated 9 applications to move Miami-Dade's Urban Development Boundary. This year, developers again threaten to overcrowd our schools, overextend our fire and rescue services and clog the roads already taxing quality of life for Miami-Dade families. Come visit with friends; meet people who care about protecting our community. At the eat and greet you have the chance to find out what's been in store, ask questions and be empowered to make a difference!
