Preserving this area is important to the preservation of the environment for future generations. This area is a large grouping of natural habitat. Removal will change the air quality, natural wildlife, natural vegetation of the soil, and the visual beauty all a part of the very fabric of this community.

There will be NOTHING felt of this natural paradise, when they are done!

For those of you not familiar with this tract of mature, old-growth maritime forest and canopy on the northern edge of AIP property .... there is a huge old "Southern Live" oak tree in the middle of this tract between the narrowest portion of Beachwood Rd and Burney Rd that is arguably larger and older than the famous "Landmark Oak" on the Marsh side off the side of Sea Marsh Rd. Its destruction would be a travesty as it is probably several hundred years old.

Maritime forest canopy is essential for the value of our homes!

Tree destruction is unacceptable. This building devalues the homes nearby. Put this building off the Plantation.

The trees and the canopy and the way buildings were integrated into the environment are why I moved here. I do not want to see that lost.

The AIP is a very special place, the reason most of us moved here is to rest in a place that has not been invaded my slabs of concrete. AIPCA has no right to destroy our natural resources.

I oppose the building of any maintenance facility inside the Plantation!

This would be an unwanted blight on the neighborhood.

Harming the Willow Conservancy is a stupid idea when there's a cleared space for maintenance at the edge of the driving range already in use.

This would further destroy habitat, many trees, serenity, and nearly everything that we love about our neighborhood.

This is a wildlife and conservation area, not a construction site. A maintenance facility here means clearing mature trees and paving over land that supports wildlife and serves as a natural buffer for the whole community. Once that habitat is gone, it's gone and a facility of this size next to our homes will also hurt property values. And we were given almost no notice and no information to even weigh in before this moves forward.

To even consider such a project in a residential area shows a lack of commitment to the lifestyle of homeowners and to investigating alternate off site possibilities.

The beautiful canopy and natural surroundings are what make our community so unique. I am completely against this building proposal.

The Willow Conservancy is a CONSERVANCY. It is a unique north Florida ecosystem that exists peacefully in a peaceful community. Put maintenance sheds/equipment/maintenance in a compatible area. Not a CONSERVANCY.

These buildings should not be built and destroy our surroundings

i simply cannot believe that the board would consider building this in either the Beechwood location or the Willow Conservancy. It’s called “Conservancy” for a reason! This looks more like a satirical proposition out of the ONION than a serious proposal. We must unite behind this effort.
