UPDATE 5 P.M. — If you're not sure how you want to vote on this, here's a factoid that may help, either way: THE VOTE NO people are listing the Florida Tea Parties as joining them in opposition to the amendment.
PREVIOUSLY REPORTED:
Miami Herald columnist and author Carl Hiaaseen has a column today called "Running scared over Amendment 4."
He said, "The same people who helped ignite the housing crash and mortgage meltdown are absolutely terrified of giving citizens actual control over growth in their own communities."
They're scared of the voters who are sick of corruption, bad planning, greed and elected officials who always cave in, "making a farce of land-use regulations."
Hmmmm. You'd think Hiaasen lives in Volusia, not in Dade County.
Meanwhile, the County Council is taking applications for two openings as its representatives on the Volusia Growth Management Commission.
Dwight Lewis has been reappointed, after taking some time off to run, unsuccessfully, for a seat on the council.
