		<description>Re: &quot;Has the land been rezoned for commercial use, since FPL isn’t in the agriculture business? That should have been the first step.&quot;

See Escambia County, Florida-Code of Ordinances:

Article 1, Sec. 3-1.4(h);

&quot;(h)Outdoor storage. Outdoor storage is allowed as prescribed by the supplemental use regulations of chapter 4 unless modified or prohibited by the applicable zoning district.&quot;

See also, 

Article 2, Sec. 3-2.2.(b).4(g) - Agricultural district (Agr);
&quot;Public utility structures 150 feet or less in height, including telecommunications towers.&quot;

Article 2, Sec. 3-2.2.(c).3(f)- Agricultural district (Agr);
&quot;Warehousing or maintenance facilities for government agencies or public utilities.&quot;

Looks like FPL might have brushed up on the rules before submitting the application, and this is an approved use.

I don&#039;t understand the people that insist they should be able to do whatever they want with their own property yet try to tell other property owners what they can&#039;t do with theirs. 

Buy it if you want to determine the use.</description>

		<description>&quot;Where does the runoff goes from all those poles that will be stacked up…
Poles are hazardest treated&quot;

Many poles concrete.

&quot;We need this primarily for hurricane prep.:

IF that were true, why not use the laydown yards they already have in Century or Molino..in FPL&#039;s service area. The camp road location is not even in FPL territory. It&#039;s EREC.</description>

		<description>People will do anything in their power to reject help. 

We need this primarily for hurricane prep. Having a place to put poles in preparation for potential hurricanes is essential to getting your power restored. If you don’t like this, don’t complain when it takes weeks to restore power.</description>

		<description>Shoot, with their solar farms and staging areas and laydown areas, at the rate they are going, in a couple of years, FPL will own most of the Molino.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s unfortunate that a greedy FPL even has a footprint in a EREC member owned and operated area. They should store their materials in an area they service and hope the powers that be shoot this down. I imagine most folks up here want nothing to do with this &quot;For Profit&quot; utility company and all their excuses to raise rates. I feel blessed to be part of a Co Op and trust the judgement of our management as we take care of our own.</description>
