| Anger and concern is building over the proposed NFCU Overpass project for 9-Mile Road in Beulah--why is this being rushed? |
"I worked my way up from XXXXXXXXX to XXXXXXXX in
the XXXXX and retired in 1985. In 2010, XXXXXXX and I bought our final retirement
home in Nature Trail, a modest patio home. There were two other houses on our
street which backs up to Nine Mile Road. I’m thankful that Navy Fed relocated
to Pensacola, bringing a lot of jobs with it. My part of the payment for it has
become the four-laning of Nine Mile and now a cement wall in place of the trees
that used to stand behind our home. There’s not [a lot] of Nature left in the Trail
these days. Sir, not everyone in Nature Trail has a lot of money, living in expensive
homes. We bought here for the security and what used to be the peace. Please
don’t allow commute times to trump what we worked so hard, so long for. I know
there are many other voices, probably all with legitimate issues. Please keep
the little guys in mind in the discussions. Tallahassee and Wash DC are distant
in their priorities as well as geographically. I’m looking to you, sir, as my
local voice." Concerned District 1 Resident
"Why is new infrastructure being planned before the effects of the widening [of 9-mile road] project are determined (or even completed?) Concerned District 1 Resident
"Most
reasonable people understand there is no solution to the Beulah problem until
the new interchange opens and takes some of the traffic off that 9 Mile Road
bottleneck between NFCU and the existing interchange." Concerned District 5 Residents
"I believe that we all need to flood the chambers tommrrow night if your for it or against it it our community we need to let the BOCC hear from us!" District 1 Resident
