VIRGINIA KEY MASTER PLAN - CALL TO ACTION


This month the City of Miami Commission will consider for approval the controversial Virginia Key Master Plan. TONIGHT IS THE PLANNING ADVISORY BOARD MEETING!!

The proposed plan includes: at least 11 parking garages, a shopping center, a corporate retreat/conference center, overnight lodging, a second new marina in the Marine Stadium Lagoon, and a massive, fully lighted sports complex, including a football and track and field stadium with grandstand on the landfill site between the Bill Sadowski Critical Wildlife area and sea turtle nesting beaches.

View the proposed master plan.

"Friends of Virginia Key" and many civic and environmental groups and interested citizens have always urged a “less is more” approach to Virginia Key that keeps it green, preserves waterfront access and vistas and protects the existingwildlife refuges and other natural areas.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Contact City of Miami Mayor Manny Diaz and City Commissioners:
Mannydiaz@miamigov.com (305) 250-5300 and City Commissioners.

7 p.m., Wed., June 17, Planning Advisory Board, 3500 Pan American Drive., Miami TONIGHT!!!
9 a.m., Thurs., June 25, City of Miami Commission, 3500 Pan American Drive., Miami
