Dear Friend,
I represent the Orlando area, but care deeply about Florida Springs which is why I am reaching out to our North Florida supporters about tonight’s County Commission meeting.
Why? Well, Southwest Georgia Oil Company applied for a comprehensive plan amendment and zoning change that would allow the construction of a mega-gas station above the Chip’s Hole cave system that leads directly to Wakulla Springs.
A major leak or catastrophic failure would destroy Wakulla Springs & River, decimate the local economy, and contaminate the drinking water. Even routine leaks and spills could damage the delicate system. Despite these facts, the Wakulla County Commission is poised to move ahead with this short-sighted and reckless plan.
If you live in the Wakulla area or love Wakulla Springs, please attend the County Commission meeting TONIGHT, August 7, at 5 p.m. in the County Commission Chambers at 29 Arran Road, Suite 101, Crawfordville, FL 32327.

Tonight, the Wakulla County Commission has a choice between the health of their entire community or the wealth of a single corporation. If you love Wakulla Springs, or your fellow springs advocates around Florida, we need your help.
Onward,
Rep. Anna V. Eskamani
