OF COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PHONE: (305) 3Z3. 4330 COURTHOUSE. N, PARK AVE. SANFORD, FLORIDA 3Z771 October 3, 1980 Dear Concerned Citizen: Let's Save Spring Hammock! Spring Hammock is a long way from being acquired, yet closer than ever before. Therefore, your support for this proposed acquisition is encouraged now more than ever. Spring Hammock has been placed number fourteen (14) on the preliminary priority list of twenty six (26) projects to be finalized and submitted to the Governor and Cabinet the end of November. It is anticipated that ten (10) of the twenty six (26) projects may receive funding. Therefore, your support in raising the priority is crucial for the successful acquisition of Spring Hammock, through the Conservation and Recreation Lands Program. It's time to realize that a lot of resources have value that cannot be expressed in terms of dollars. Scenic vistas, buffers around Soldier's Creek and Lake Jessup, environmental functions such as water quantity and quality, urban growth shaping, open space and recreation plus native plant communities maintained in their natural state and native non game wildlife are all immensely valuable componenets of Spring Hammock. Please let the Governor and Cabinet know your feelings about the value of Spring Hammock to the County and the East Central Florida Region. Individual letters can make a difference in this project's priority rWlking. Attached is a list of the addresses and phone numbers of individuals to whom letters of support should be written. You are invited to express your interests in Spring Hammock at the public meeting scheduled October 23, 1980 at 6:00 p.m. in Room 203 of the Seminole County Courthouse. The purpose of this meeting is to take oral and written testimony in response to those projects on the acquisition list proposed for presentation to the Governor and Cabinet. If you would like additional information or to have a presentation made to your community group contact me at 323-4330 ext 181. I encourage you to make every effort possible in supporting the protection of Spring Hammock.
