“... it will help to proliferate sprawl in Florida, moving the urban area into areas that are currently agricultural or natural without requiring ... public hearings and public planning efforts that other landowners would have to go through.” https://t.co/SIQEJkXsJB

It’s that time of year! Without the flood control system we couldn’t live in South Florida! Thank you @SFWMD for all you do 💙

[South Florida Water Management District @SFWMD]

💦 Flood control is a key component of the @SFWMD's mission.

💙 At today's Governing Board meeting, the @SFWMD recognized June as Flood Awareness Month and highlighted the important work the District does to protect South Florida's communities.

💪 Staff works year-round to ensure the regional flood control system is ready for any storms that come our way.

The Environment is the Economy 🌱💰

[Daniella Levine Cava @LevineCava]

I vetoed the Kelly Tractor expansion to protect sensitive wetlands and uphold Miami-Dade’s growth rules.

Those wetlands play a critical role in protecting our drinking water and managing flooding. Allowing this project to move forward would have put those protections at risk.
