Gov. DeSantis only has a couple days left to veto Senate Bill 540.
We need your help.
SB 540, which the Legislature passed May 2, would be a death knell for citizen engagement in development decisions. It would make it almost impossible for average residents to bring challenges to legally flawed amendments to local comprehensive plans, which serve as the blueprint for growth in local communities. SB 540 undercuts the fundamental right to seek remedy from the courts if the political process fails.
That’s bad for the future of Florida, bad for the Everglades, and bad for water and wildlife.
It also flies in the face of Gov. DeSantis' Executive Order 23-06, which called for protecting the long-term planning process that safeguards sustainable growth in Florida. To honor his own executive order, Gov. DeSantis must veto SB 540. He has until Wednesday to do so.
