The rezoning is finally approved and our neighborhood future is secure. This long struggle drained me but seeing our community protected makes every bit of the effort worth it. We will keep an eye on the construction phase to ensure the final result matches the plans we fought for.

We, the voting citizens of Keys Gate and Homestead, petition the City Council of Homestead to allow the current zoning of Commercial / multi-family units in the Park of Commerce to include single family homes.
We also respectfully petition the Council to approve Mr. Wayne Rosen's request to allow the approximate 11 acres of golf course land to be rezoned as residential land.
With this petition, we also ask you to support a renovated golf course as proposed by Mr. Jim Fazio at the February 3rd golf course presentation, and that the land surrounding the "third finger" of the golf course (approximately 35 - 40 acres) be site-planned as a single-family neighborhood of no more than 6 units per acre.
A Championship golf course will create new jobs, promote tourism, and bring increased tax revenue to Homestead, as well as a true sense of community - something of which Homestead and all of South Florida can be proud.

This is a step in the right direction for Homestead. As a real estate agent that works in the area, this will create more jobs, bring in more home buyers and raise values on current homes in the area. We need more venues in Homestead like this and its truly an amazing site. Lets save the golf course.
As a residents of keys gate since 2001. This golf course is definitely a plus living here. It attracts new home buyers, it increases home values, generates jobs, keeps the community active. We need this!
I worked for Keys gate golf and country club for over 20 years my kids and grandkids grew up playing golf their its in the best interest of the city to support this project . Yes get it done
I am putting in a petition to keep the keys gate.Golf course. I have been a resident of Florida for 26 yrs and even worked in 2000 at keys gate clubhouse. So I am asking to please keep the. Golf course for my retirement needs . sincerely. Mrs Leticia Tamos
I approve the golf course, but I'm not clear on the mixed use portion. I would not approve any change to the surrounding land around the club house (butterfly park, tennis court and open area)
Save the golf course !!!
After reviewing this petition, I’ve noticed that there are numerous misleading inaccuracies. Specifically, “We, the voting citizens of Keys Gate and Homestead, petition the City Council of Homestead to allow the current zoning of Commercial / multi-family units in the Park of Commerce to include single family homes.

Any mention of the Keys Gate Golf Course and any renovation thereto is intentionally misleading.

I have owned a home in Northgate since 1989 and the Park of Commerce has basically remained empty since then. Please allow the rezoning to enhance our community and allow my wife and I and our children the ability to play golf in our own neighborhood. Thank you.
