Sen. Charlie Justice backs anti-Tierra Verde annexation legislation
December 22, 2008 at 4:48 pm by Wayne GarciaYou recall the annexation that has the small condo-laden island of Tierra Verde up in arms, in which the city of St. Petersburg is jumping across a body of water to annex two commercial properties on the island so that the owners can develop them at greater densities than they are currently allowed? Thought so. Now, Democratic Sen. Charlie Justice is getting involved, according to the Times:
Sen. Charlie Justice said today he will likely support the so-called “all or nothing bill” that would prevent local governments from dividing up Tierra Verde.
The law would require a municipality to annex all of Tierra Verde or leave it alone.
