Sarasota is losing its attractiveness due to the rampant development especially around downtown. Please don't let the natural beauty of the Celery Fields be the next victim.

I'm sick of the way Pay to Play is ruining Sarasota. Just look at the intersection of 41 and the John Ringling Bridge. And the schemers want to put a huge development in at the corner of Stickney Road and 41. Please don't continue to let them destroy our beautiful town.

Our environment is under attack every day and please use all your attention to care for our resources. Once it is destroyed, there is no going back.

Please don't allow one of Sarasota's special places to be so dismally impacted by such a poor choice of a neighbor. The recycling plant is not a negative in itself, but near the celery fields it is disasterous. It's like moving into a deed restricted neighborhood, quiet, pleasant and cherished and then allowing a giant Walmart to operate in the middle if it. Too much of Sarasota and its natural beauty has been carelessly discarded. View an aerial photo of the tree decimation alone. Please don't do this.

My understanding is that bird watchers from around the United States are coming to this location. It would be a mistake to endanger this natural habitat.

I live in a neighborhood off of Palmer very close to the proposed construction. One of the reasons my family bought where we did was the walking access to Celery Fields and the other beautiful natural sites in the area. Please do not change the zoning code to permit this construction!

We don't need this at the proposed location recycling is suppose to compliment the environment not disturb it.

There are 6000 signatures here saying this isn't a wanted change. Wetlands were already lost to whole foods. Sarasota loves nature - SO LEAVE IT BE.

It would be such a shame to encroach on this lovely site with industrial waste facilities! Surely this would impact the creatures that live there via increased nouse, industrial runoff and traffic.

How about building in in Palm Beach; right next to Mar a Lago!

Please preserve the bird sanctuary at Celery Fields. We are quickly destroying places where we can see wild life for so call progress.
