Petition to Manatee County Board of County Commissioners
Save our wetlands
Decision Makers:
Manatee County Board of County Commissioners
The proposed wall at Aqua affects my community on the bay. Wild Oak Bay Vista IV residents have invested a lot in protecting the mangroves in front of our building. During the storm Helene we experienced a surge that flooded under our building and the parking lot on the far side. This caused considerable damage and that wall will create a bigger problem if another similar storm happens. Given the warming of the water that possibility is likely.

Save our wetlands and mangroves. Stop the wall from being built
This would set a disastrous precedent that will be environmentally irresponsible and hurt property values

We live near the Aqua development which has already destroyed a lot of habitat and we are seeing more wildlife in our area as they have been evicted. Please do not allow more development in this location. I’m a civil engineer and am shocked that any proposal to eliminate a wetland buffer is being considered with all of the information we have now on how detrimental not having a buffer is to hydraulics of area during heavy rains and disastrous in hurricanes. Please stop this.
