Jahna Mining Company quiere obtener un cambio de zona y un permiso PUD para una mina de arena en medio de nuestra reserva Florida Panther y los 1300 acres circundantes justo encima de Montura Ranches con 250 camiones volquete yendo y viniendo en Sam Jones, una peligrosa Carretera de dos carriles ya rota. Viajamos por esa carretera principal para ir al trabajo y a la escuela. Respiraremos aire tóxico debido al silicio de la arena y nuestros pozos de agua tendrán los pesticidas y la contaminación que están desenterrando. El 10 de diciembre la propuesta para obtener un permiso se presentará ante los comisionados en LaBelle. ¡Por favor ayuda a detener esta mina!

Jahna Mining Company wants to get a zone change and PUD permit for a Sand Mine in the middle of our Florida Panther reserve and the surrounding 1300 acres right on top of Montura Ranches with 250 dump trucks going back and forth on Sam Jones, a dangerous two lane already broken road. We travel on that main road to go to work and school. We will be breathing in toxic air from the silicon in the sand and our water wells will have the pesticides and contamination that they are digging up. On December 10th the proposal to get a permit will go in front of the commissioners in LaBelle. Please help stop this Mine!

We love our community to be safe for our health with fresh air. Also for our value of selling our homes don't decrease. It bad enough that we have no serve for the fire department, police assistance or medical assistance in the area. Taxes already went up and still we all experience flooding. We the people should have a voice to listen.

The sand mine affects the water wells, by placing pumps and making our wells stop having water in addition to the dust that our children are going to dig up when they play in the yard and it is harmful.

Yes Ma'am , please attend the meeting at the courthouse tomorrow in LaBelle, it is at 6pm. They cancelled the mine in Alva last month because the whole community showed up, there was no standing room.

Por favor, ven a la reunión en LaBelle en el juzgado mañana a las 6 p.m. Es muy importante que vengas y les demuestres que estamos unidos en esto. ¡Cancelaron la mina de arena en Alva el mes pasado porque TODOS vinieron! No tienes que hablar, ¡solo presentarte!
