On March 10, the Alliance of Florida Land Trusts sent legislators a letter calling for continued support of the Florida Forever program and emphasizing the economic benefits of land conservation.
The Alliance of Florida Land Trusts supports full funding of the Florida Forever program. This funding is consistent with the Legislature’s unanimous approval of the ten-year renewal of Florida Forever in 2008….This month Mark Wilson, President & CEO of the Florida Chamber of Commerce, endorsed this funding request because “the Florida Forever program makes a critical contribution to the long-term economic well-being of our state and preservation of the quality of life of our citizens.”
