Message from Protect St. Pete Beach Advocacy Group
Protect St. Pete Beach says “The Time Is Now, St. Pete residents, to make your voice heard about beach resort development. Have you seen Protect St. Pete Beach’s petition? https://www.protectstpetebeach.com/petition Check out resident rationale and requests for the city commissioners. Mark your calendar: the first hearing in which decision-makers will discuss application #23053 and the Sirata developers cramming new buildings alongside an older hotel is our Planning Board meeting on Monday, November 13th at 4pm in City Hall. The Planning Board needs to hear testimony from residents about our city’s residential character and quality of life during public comment to have the competent and substantial evidence necessary to support a legally sound decision that rejects this unreasonable proposal as inconsistent with our Comprehensive Plan’s goals and objectives. If you are unable to attend, email the City Clerk, cityclerk@stpetebeach.org by 12:00 p.m. (noon) November 12th.”
