Why Our Cause Matters To You
Consider the following questions:
- Do you want to have a voice in how our area will be developed?
- Do you think that residents currently have a voice in this process?
- Are you pleased with how development has been happening?
Helping OUR-SOIL can change how development is done in Okaloosa County.
- Winning our Lawsuit against the County can correct misinterpretations of the law.
- Winning this case can force the county to enforce the law as intended.
- Winning this case can prevent large residential developments on land zoned as agricultural and other inappropriate developments.
- Winning this case makes a statement that we-the-people are serious and will hold local government accountable.
- If we don’t win this case, the County will continue to approve large residential developments in rural areas that cause serious problems for the residents because they don’t follow the goals and intent of the law.
- If we don’t win this case, inappropriate developments will continue to create urban sprawl and will completely change the character of the rural areas of the county. We will suffer a significant loss of rural areas and land for agriculture. Residents who want to live in an area intended to remain rural, will never know when a large development may be approved right next to them. Future Land Use and Zoning protections will become useless.
