 Wednesday at Pegasus at 7pm
Katharine Murray, President of Environmental Quality will be the guest  speaker for Florida Forever.
 This November, if at least 60% of voters approve Amendment 4, Florida's  constitution will be amended to give private land owners incentives to conserve  their land instead of developing it by reducing or eliminating property taxes  for land put into conservation easements.  In 2000, Colorado passed a law that  gave state income tax breaks to those landowners who donated perpetual  conservation easements on their lands. In the intervening eight years, one  million acres have been forever saved from development by the use of this law.
