Point 1: State is going crazy with this burdensome and more restrictive regulations by local government. Based on some of the language of SB 180 they are extending the prohibition until 2027. Bill will allow for Comp plan amendments by a private applicant. The way I read this, it will happen with every hurricane from now on that has a federal declaration.
Point 2. Commissioner Felts had already spoken during deliberation for almost 15 minutes after the presentations. If she had just allowed for the vote without speaking again, there probably been a denial. I admire her passion but she needs to learn when to speak and when it is not necessary.
