The short version

If you read nothing else, read this part.

What we are trying to protect

The existing Tarpon Woods Golf Course, the open green space, Brooker Creek-connected habitat, neighborhood character, resident safety, and wildlife that uses the property today.

What we are concerned about

A staged process where mitigation-bank work, earthmoving, density transfer, permitting, or future development pressure could change the course before residents fully understand the real outcome.

How often should you visit?

Check the site at least once a week, and more often when hearings or storms are active.

The search bots run twice a week, admins review submissions, and calendar items can change. During rainy season, permit activity, public meetings, or breaking news, check every few days. If you join alerts, we can also email you when something important happens.

Tip

Do not worry about making a perfect submission

If you have a useful photo, document, link, or observation, send it in. The admin team can review, organize, and decide where it belongs before anything appears publicly.

Submit Evidence
Tip

Stick to facts and first-hand information

Helpful submissions include dates, locations, photos, links, document names, meeting details, and what you personally saw or received.

Tip

Share the site with neighbors

The more residents use one organized source, the easier it is to respond quickly and keep the public record accurate.
