Petition to Put “Protection” Back in Lake County’s Rural Protection Areas
3/10/2025
URGENT!
The Florida Legislature is proposing to preempt a county’s ability to create or enforce existing low density development areas such as Agriculture or Rural. We urge all Lake residents to review this information from the 1000 Friends of Florida.
You can take action in two ways:
- Use the Orange “Take Action” button to email your legislators asking them to oppose this bill.
- Complete the petition form to the right. This will email the County Commissioners asking them to also oppose this bill.
You can read the full bill and see the status at the Florida Senate website HERE.
Urge the Legislature and the County Commission to reject SB 1118 / HB 1209 “Land Use and Development Regulations”
