This is an important and much used natural area for Sarasota residents. Leave it alone!

Put it in Lakewood Ranch, there is plenty of room for such a facility.

Surely, there must be a better option than a recycling plant for this land. This is not a location for such a facility!

In opposition to all buildings and rezonings on the surplus lands near the celery fields until traffic can be fixed and options for development that would be in harmony with the area

I thought this area was going to be left natural so that there wouldn't be flooding in Colonial Oaks and other areas.

This is a beautiful respite in a rapidly growing city and one of my favorite places in Sarasota.

The Celery Fields are a unique and precious resource . The change in zoning for the incompatible adjacent projects would destroy it. Don't take away one of the things that makes Sarasota County a destination.

Please do not build a 16 acre industrial recycling plant next to the Celery Fields Bird Sanctuary! We need to preserve these beautiful areas and not destroy the environment.

This area has become a favorite peaceful area for so many residents to enjoy outdoor activities. The recycling folks need to move their plans to farther east. Near celery fields , Park, & residences, NOT ACCEPTABLE! Commissioners, we are watching your votes on this one, & will decide ours next election....

I do NOT want this 16 acre industrial recycling plant built next to our Celery Fields and bird sanctuary! Please deny the zoning exception.
