Say "NO" to FPL High Voltage 100-ft. Power Lines.
FPL plans to run high-voltage power lines through our communities! Most folks don't know this, but FPL's preferred route for running 100-foot towers carrying 230-KV high-voltage powerlines north from Turkey Point to Miami and beyond is right up South Dixie Highway right alongside the Metrorail ... creating an incredibly unsightly gateway into all the business districts and neigbhborhoods along the way!
The high-voltage lines would run from Davis substation, located between SW 136th Street and SW 140th Street and west of the Turnpike Extension, all the way to the downtown Miami substation. Go to FP&L Website for info on the lines.
Come to the public Hearing & Voice your Concern.

FP&L's Proposed High Voltage Lines Irritates an Eye on Miami Reader. By Geniusofdespair.

The increase in public interest has prompted a regional news outlet to request a formal interview regarding the proposed transmission route. I am currently drafting a letter to the commission to ensure our concerns are on the official record before the next hearing.
