I agree with “Floridian” …. I laugh out loud every time one of these articles pops up, knowing the stink it will raise! It’s not the county or state that sold you out, IT’S YOUR NEIGHBOR THAT SOLD THEM THE PROPERTY!!! If everyone sits on their land, then no one else shows up. Or, as I mentioned some time ago, all of you that want to lock the gates need to form a group and buy up all the remaining land so no one else can move up your way.

Did you forget that the entire NW Florida is governed by Republicans? No federal agency had input into this decision.
Place the blame where it should be.

Many years ago in this county I believe an ordinance passed that required a minimum amount acreage north of Muscogee Rd. I don’t know what ever happened with that but if it’s still on the books it needs to be revisited. I know expansion & growth will happen but having grown up here I’ve witnessed the beaches that were once pristine turn into concrete jungles, a place where people can no longer visit because there’s no place to park. This county has a tourist driven economy so it has expanded on the south end. The north end of the county, what’s left of it, is rural & if you look at the geographic boundaries you’ll see the choke point & that’s why the roads were laid as they were. The people living in the northern rural area don’t want the north end to look like south end but if we allow it, it’ll happen. Just look at the lots in the picture, it works out to 3 houses on “less” than an acre. Now look at the existing lot layout surrounding this proposed ant colony subdivision. Hwy 29N from Muscogee Rd is a raceway daily, morning & evening. By encouraging this style of development it will only add to the existing problems. The people who live in the north end prefer a rural environment, it doesn’t belong to the developers, the county commissioners or the planning board. So if they are not gonna listen then they need to be replaced. Either represent us or get out of county government. It’s easy, resign! Do what you were elected to do or be fired by your “constituents!” Commissioners are being paid almost a $100K a year, we may be over paying them.

Everybody loves free market capitalism until they have to deal with the consequences.

ECUA should get at least $5000 per lot . Garbage trucks are running on 3 wheels and 5 cylinders. They cost better than $600,000 each and the fleet is crippled

I wonder if the water company in the Cottage Hill community can handle all of this new construction that was approved. Almost daily we receive boil water notices by text and email. Are all of its wells up and working now?

Molino Resident: Many MAY abandon our county, state or country if the crowding does not STOP !

Native: The “decline” will happen from overcrowding.

If the borders were controlled by Patriots instead of our Communist Demoncrat Party, a LOT of things would be better, even in our over population of criminals and the criminally insane. Maybe our present government is insane. Something is surely wrong. They do not represent the majority. They represent the dregs of society, extreme immorality, and their own greedy or ignorant selves……….IMHO!

How I wish that money did NOT rule this fallen world. How I wish that politicians would represent the people who voted them into office. Extreme wealth IS NOT the answer to happiness. IT causes the opposite in most cases. Those we vote for need to be honest and FOR the people they are supposed to represent.
