He still has pipedreams of Airbus swooping in to settle here in Pensacola. (See article in pnj from years ago) 2- This really, really shouldn't be a commercial park. This large area of land has the potential to become a beautiful city center. I wish that more people would get involved in this. 3. To the person above who complained about lack of low income housing, you don't want that out here. There's no public transportation support/infrastructure. That will cost $$. 1- Bergosh isn’t listening. He still has pipedreams of Airbus swooping in to settle here in Pensacola. (See article in pnj from years ago)

Would you rather have a majority of land devoted to commerce or 1900 residences with 2 to 4 drivers from each pouring into 9 Mile and Beulah Rd with you every day? Other good locations to gather written input would be in front of Publix and Walmart. I think you would get a lot more "citizen of Beulah" participation, as opposed to just coming from those who might participate in an on-line forum. Yes, some retail, government space for a post office and school, and parks are great. Even SOME residential is fine, but the whole purpose of obtaining the property was for commerce. You can build houses later if commerce doesn't come, but you can't clear out the houses later for commerce. The building code was changed to accommodate higher density housing in Beulah several years ago and there is still a whole lot of land away from I-10 which can be used for housing. Don't bait and switch without giving commerce and jobs other than just retail a chance. If you want opinions, take a survey while people are in the traffic backed up on 9 Mile Rd and Beulah Rd.

You clowns have already ruined the 9 mile rd/beulah area. Take your crooked deals and pound sand. Beulah people, is your county official REALLY representing you? We don’t want it.

Any new developed area in Escambia county needs to allocate a certain percentage of the development for a park. These hundreds of acres don't do that. What's a garden how big is the garden will it have a pond a place for people to come and enjoy themselves for a day. All these developments in Escambia county none of them do that they just use every piece of property so they can get property taxes from it. I didn’t see anything about a park.

But, Escambia and Santa Rosa counties need to get their priorities straight! I hate it for the people who wind up getting their properties split by roads but dadgummit, they keep building, building, building to the same ol’ small, already cramped road system we have! Make the firm that is behind this responsible for helping monetarily with adding more and wider roads! I agree with M in Bratt!

Common sense would dictate that they put a moratorium on new development until a plan is brought forward to put in some limited access road corridors to get traffic across the county. Their answer to traffic problems now is to add a few lanes, and a bunch of traffic signals which only accomplishes having more parking for cars stuck in the traffic jams. Wake up Escambia County, look to the future instead of trying to catch up from mistakes of the past.
