We the undersigned, as residents of Martin County Florida, respectfully request the Martin County Board of County Commissioners to VOTE to REMOVE MARTIN COUNTY FROM THE SEVEN 50 PLAN. We believe all zoning and land use decisions for Martin County at large should be made by Martin County officials governing the political subdivisions within Martin County, be they the County Government when applicable or the City Governments when applicable. We do NOT wish to be governed in Land Use or Zoning Matters by any Regional Board or Committee which is not totally accountable to Martin County voters.

Seeing this kind of movement confirms that so many of you feel the same deep exhaustion I do regarding our local autonomy. The path ahead is long and will likely be difficult but I am staying in this fight until our land use decisions are back where they belong.

Seven50 is a clear and present danger to local control of property rights and takes power away from our duly elected commissioners at the city and county levels. It is centralization writ large.

I think the releases from Lake Okeechobee which are controlled by others would be nothing compared to Seven 50. We in Martin County have fought to be different/better. Don't give away our independence.

Stop this now! I left Broward County to get away from the concrete heaven they made Pompano Beach into! I watch a beautiful area turn into concrete greed!

Martin Councty does not belong in 7-50. CoWe have nothign in common with counties to the south ankd involvemnet may be a threat to our Comp Plan. Counties to the. north have rejected it and we should do the same

As a Realtor I will say the controled growth use now firmly implemented with our renewed Comp Plan is the THe biggest factor in new movement to Martin County and why there is such low turnover in our properties. Keep the FEDS out of any and all possible control Please. We are capable of localizaed decsions on our future. Thank You.

Whateverbenefits the Plan professes to provide, they don't outweighthe detriments. The 900 pound gorillas, i.e., Palm Beach Broward and Miami=Dad counties will control. St Lucie and Indian River counties recognized the peril and withdrew. We must as well..
