******PLEASE NOTE - THERE HAS BEEN A CHANGE IN THE DATE FOR THE FIRST MEETING******

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY RESIDENTS: TROPICAL AUDUBON NEEDS YOUR HELP!
IF YOU'VE NEVER ACTED BEFORE - NOW IS THE TIME - YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!

On October 26th, the Miami-Dade County Planning Advisory Board will consider requests to move the Urban Development Boundary (UDB).

On November 21st, the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners will consider requests to move the Urban Development Boundary.

The UDB is that line in the sand meant to contain suburban sprawl, protect natural areas and protect important natural resources like our drinking water. Nine new applications were submitted to move the line this year, and a tenth application submitted by builders and developers seeks to change langauge in the County's Master Plan that would force the movement of the line. This many applications is unprecedented, and the applications represent a full attack on the UDB by those who profit from development without bearing any of the social costs.

Every resident of the county who cares about their quality of life has a role to play in holding the UDB. Attend the meetings and communicate that moving the line will worsen traffic, contribute to
overcrowded schools, contribute to the loss of agricultural lands and threaten our natural areas and our drinking water supply.
