County planners/commissioners need to review deleterious effects of urban sprawl while considering lives of people who are already residing in the area, and respect their present quality of life. Why show patronization to those who aren't even established in the immediate area over those who are well established, and who have good intentions of preserving the area?

There must be some better alternative to this pristine area...how about farther east on High Hat ranch?

Fist make something nice and then destroy it? Why would you do that? Trucks can drive a little further...

I love celery fields! Whenever I go there are many others enjoying the birds, the hill, the fishing, biking...it brings people from all over for the birds. Please be careful.

It's a shame our local representatives so often just represent the developers and not the people. We'll remember how everyone has voted at the polls.

I oppose the construction of an industrial recycling plant at the proposed site adjacent to Celery Fields.

I do not want a 14-acre industrial recycling plant built next to the bird sanctuary at the Celery Fields.
