Save the Celery Fields in Sarasota, FL

Bad location! Don't build anywhere in our area. Give some respect to our local residents and our natural beauty.

Welcome to good ol'dumba** SARASOTA! They ruin everything here.. Attract all these tourist and people to live her and go ahead and put a recycling facility in their neighborhood.. Who thinks of this stuff?

Grew up in the area. Don't think it's right to destroy such a beautiful area.

I don't want a 16-acre, industrial recycling plant built next to the bird sanctuary at the Celery Fields! So many people enjoy this area for hiking and walking and tranquility. Say nothing about the abundance of birds and wildlife. Please find another location.

There are other effective sites for an industrial recycling plant.

The bird sanctuary brought 8 million dollars to Sarasota county last year and is also second in the nation.

Save the celery fields please!!! Stop being greedy and wanting more money!!

Save the celery fields! It is not the place for any industry. Don't pave paradise & put up a recycling center!

I don't want an Industrial Recycling Plant built next to the bird sanctuary at the Celery Fields.

I don't want to have a recycling center in the back yard of my home and never the least all this pollution around my kids. Stop the project please.

Have they visited the park before they permit a dump site across the street?

We do not want a recycling plant built next to the bird sanctuary at the Celery Fields! I can't believe that the county is considering this?? I would hope that our elected officials are considering what the people want and I do not think ANYONE would want this.

How could Sarasota County approve this ?

Against this facility being built. That Intersection at Palmer and Porter is a bad intersection not visible of the light if coming from the west on Palmer can't imagine what it will be like with big trucks coming and going. Pollution and Noise is another factor especially if the wind is blowing from the North that will all be blowing into our neighborhoods not to mention lakes. Its one thing having a facility like this and then building homes....that would be the decision a homebuyer would have to make....but for the people that are living here and don't really have the means to move its just not fair!!!!

NO

This will impact the traffic in our area tremendously the infrastructure cannot handle in this area... not to mention that all of these recycling facilities that I've been to give a horrible smell... I think a facility like this would be best suited further east of town not not so close to residential or commercial businesses I own commercial piece of property less than 200 yards and I know this area cannot handle all the extra traffic and large trucks coming and going

Save the celery!

Please do not allow a 16 acre industrial recycling plant to be built next to the bird sanctuary at the Celery Fields. The noise and traffic will chase away all the beautiful birds.

Please do not allow the recycling plant to be built close to such a sensitive and valuable birding area! Thank you.

I want to get the Boy Scouts of Sarasota involved. How can we help?
