Our friends at Eye on Miami did some research and got the contact information for the various members of the Miami-Dade Planning Board. Please look it over and if you feel so compelled let them know how you feel. This project is a fucking calamity, and if you think there was a fight over a tiny piece of land for Lowes, get ready. I really hope that people understand what we have to lose - we need to save our agricultural land, and we don’t need a fake new urbanist project in the middle of nowhere. Just because you put a feather in your butt does not make you a chicken Jeffrey Berkow.
Write to your commissioner - let them know this is not ok.
Anyone know what the _next_ step is in fighting this? The list of PAB members is good, but a little late.
Yes, I believe it will be moving to the County Commissioners. So, email them your opinion! I did this morning. Every comment helps.

Yes please - write to your commissioner and PAB board member! Even if the project was already heard, the board still needs to know there are smart growth advocates who are paying attention. Thankfully, we’ll be prepared to let them know next time they have an important decision to make.
I e-mailed every County Commissioner with a letter explaining the horrible effects Parkland could have on Miami.
