Utility companies, Smart Meters and Agenda 21

Comment Up

FPL submitted a plan to the Florida Public Service Commission. It was modified--Don't try and opt out-- people who don't allow smart meters on their property will be charged by FPL. They will charge you a $95 enrollment fee and you will also have to pay them a $13 monthly surcharge. See Channel 5 for report

Seven/50 Debate - Property rights

Comment Up

This is one in which commissioner John Szerdi may have an interest.

PROGRAM AND THE CONCERN THAT IT MIGHT DIMINISH YOUR PROPERTY RIGHTS, HUD has quietly been adding conditions to its future development grants that many people think our politicians haven't studied carefully enough - requirements that some people think may impose onerous demands on our local governments, committing us to the edicts of regional planning groups, negating our local zoning powers and committing us to unanticipated edicts and expenses.

Seven/50 Exposed


Florida SEVEN50 Plan architect says "Fascism" is the way to implement new planning vision. Our present commission has a problem with some former commissioners who leaned toward socialism but now we have some on the present commission supporting facism? Fascism borrowed theories and terminology from socialism. Lake Worth Commissioner John Szerdi supports Seven/50.

What is Seven/50?

Comment Up

We heard Commissioner John Szerdi mention it.  And there are many people alarmed about it.  What is it?

From the Seven/50 web site: Seven50 (“seven counties, 50 years”) is a blueprint for growing a more prosperous, more desirable Southeast Florida during the next 50 years and beyond. The plan is being developed to help ensure a vibrant and resilient economy, and stewardship of the fragile ecosystem in what is quickly becoming one of the world’s most important mega-regions.

Spearheaded by the South Florida and Treasure Coast Regional Planning Councils (the Treasure Coast gets its  nose into everything in Lake Worth) and the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership (SFRP), a unique collaboration of more than 200 public, private, and civic stakeholders, Seven50 is mapping the strategy for the best-possible quality of life for the more than six million residents of Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River counties.

The plan is being devised through a series of public summits, workshops, online outreach and high-impact studies led by the region’s top thinkers. Seven50 has been made possible by a grant from the US Department of Housing & Urban Development’s Sustainable Communities InitiativeClick here for a comprehensive overview of Seven/50 from their web site.

We have heard Lake Worth resident, Suzanne Squire, talk about Seven/50 as well as Agenda 21.  Read her letter to the editor of the LW Herald this week's edition. What is Agenda 21?


In a nutshell, the plan calls for governments to take control of all land use and not leave any of the decision making in the hands of private property owners.  It is assumed that people are not good stewards of their land and the government will do a better job if they are in control.  Individual rights in general are to give way to the needs of communities as determined by the governing body.  - See more at: http://www.democratsagainstunagenda21.com/#sthash.36L50R7Z.dpuf

 It is the taking over of all land use on private property by the government and ties in with Seven/50.  See what the mayor of Vero Beach has to say about it.
