In an upset of my mental stability, Natacha Seijas actually said nice things about the environment!! She talked about preserving the Bay and the Everglades. I AM IN SHOCK. I have to reevaluate my belief system. Maybe the trip to Africa transformed Natacha. Then it was worth the money to send her there. Anyway, all went well they accepted the Watershed Study with no caveats and NATACHA herself took out her whereas poison pill. Could have been because Gimenez was going to pull it.
What this all means? The Planning Dept. now can use components of the study in their work, probably other benefits but I don't know them.
I am including photos I took off my TV set. I was too lazy to go since there was no public comment allowed. I was laying in bed so my foot was in a lot of my camera phone photos. Love this phone. And I will say this with great difficulty: Thank you Natacha.
(correction of photo - I feel like the Herald - that was Jamie Furgang).

Accepted but not adopted, correct??
I too was stunned by Vile Natacha acting like she actually cared.
Do you think she is getting worried that she may be next under the microscope after Diaz?
PS you forgot Mark Lewis from Biscayne Nat'l Park
"I was laying in bed so my foot was in a lot of my camera phone photos"
At bed on a Tue ,2PM ?
don't you work? :)
Of course I work... for myself. I worked all weekend. I make my own hours. Haven't you ever read my 2 am blogs...
Accepted not adopted yes. But it still is good. I didn't get everyone's photos. They all didn't come out...

Ah but despite today's victory, and sudden spike in karmic energy...Seijas still mentioned her plan to analyze and "shred" components of the bill she didnt like..Thanks to everyone who spoke!
Well, eat my grits. I missed it.
Darn internet was not working.
So, darlings, if you can't believe that things went they way they did, you are probably on to something, there has to be QUID PRO QUO somewhere...
For the non-legal eagles: QUID PRO QUO - Latin phrase 'what for what' or 'something for something.' The concept of getting something of value in return for giving something of value. For a contract to be binding, it usually must involve the exchange of something of value.
Let's see, what could it be? Support for Kendall's latest outside-the-UDB project or support for train-on-tracks blocking rush hour traffic? Watch out for the political chess game... there are some BIG elections coming up in 2007-2008. You are going to find some interesting stories in the coming months as we see who will rule the chess board.
Pssst. Don't forget to keep an eye on the cities. Was today's vote a payback for the state mitigation vote? Remember, there were some mitigation cities very much in opposition to the Watershed. Does mean the cities need to watch for the sudden enforcement of a little used commission power regarding zoning?
If you had been there, you would have seen Miguel De Grandy walk back into the shadows after the vote ... the Farm Bureau made its best case to kill the study... but even before Carlos Gimenez, who pulled the resolution, Natacha withdrew the offensive clause, looking like she had eaten some bad California spinach.
I still feel that the leopard has not changed its spots. We should watch very carefully for some trickery in the future.
nice camera work, gen.
I never thought you would take the watershed lying down.
;-)
This is why i love comments...they make me laugh -you did it today last anon. one good laugh a day makes life fun
Have you every seen worse photos? Natacha actually looks better than some of the others...
Maybe she met Nelson Mandel in So Africa and learned something about leadership and "standing." I wonder if there are any pictures of it?
It is interesting that Bob Johnson spoke in favor of it because he said publicly that it was not a Watershed Study. He further went on to say that had he known that from the onset, he probably would not have served on the committee.
Hmmmm....
