One citizen’s view of Amendment 4 as posted on Ocala.com:
Of course, the one resident initiative Florida’s corporate elite really hates – and is terrified of – is Amendment 4, appearing on the upcoming November ballot. Amendment 4 will empower residents to veto any comprehensive land-use changes made by elected officials that the community doesn’t want.
Amendment 4, in fact, may very well give Floridians the power to prevent future development madness that is bound to re-emerge when the recession ends.
This state belongs to all of us, even if it is ruled by the top dogs. One way to fight back against corporate power brokers and their sycophants in Tallahassee is to vote “Yes” on Amendment 4. The fact that architects of the current assault on government public workers and the public – Sen. John Thrasher, Jeb Bush and the Florida Chamber of Commerce – can’t stand this idea should tell you plenty.
