Apparently Armando Codina is stepping in a half-hearted way against casinos. According to Miami Today, Codina now takes the public position that a casino in downtown Miami cannot be built by Genting without massive traffic impacts. Codina suggests that Genting should pay for the traffic infrastructure upgrade needed. Heck, Armando: we can't even complete an off ramp on North Miami Avenue to the Design District. We can't even figure out how people are going to get to the new Marlins Stadium by car or public transit. Anyone who has read this blog knows our view about the pitiful traffic pattern of downtown Miami, including the insertion of the Performing Arsht Center and the Heat Arena and the new Museum named for Jorge Perez. Yes with failing to plan for traffic, Miami shoots itself in the foot better than any other city in America. But casinos should be rejected in Miami. Period. Watch the video.

This is truly alarming, what's that website again? Vid is pretty fast. Anyway, I think mommy bloggers of FL should take a stand, voice out their concerns...
I contacted my state representative and senator. Please do the same if you read this.
Say NO to the casinos!
