Yes, I do have favorable opinions of the Newspaper as well as negative. In their Editorial Projects outside UDB should be denied: OUR OPINION: MIAMI-DADE'S NEW WATER SUPPLY EXISTS ONLY ON PAPER they are responding to the announcement by the South Florida Water Management District that there is not enough water in the plan, recently hammered out by Water Managers and County Mayor Alvarez/vile Natacha Seijas. The NEW water sources would not be available to at least 2012 (according to SFWMD) and they have recommended to the Department of Community Affairs (State Growth Managment Agency), reviewing the applications, that all 3 applications be rejected. The Paper agrees with SFWMD’s objections to movement of the Urban Development Boundary. Also, FDOT has also weighed in on the 3 projects seeking to move the line:
“The Florida Department of Transportation has filed objections, finding that all three will increase traffic in congested West Miami-Dade. The DOT is also challenging the findings of a study that claims traffic will actually decrease on Kendall Drive by 2016, calling that conclusion "counterintuitive.''
Historic opposition that, I am sure, most Miami Dade County Commissioners will totally ignore.

Sometimes they hit a home run.
Not often enough!
Wow it's almost like the Herald is actually paying ATTENTION!! I hope it's the beginning of a trend :-)
For the Herald to be anti-growth scares me a bit; maybe the water supply is actually an even bigger problem than we thought!
