Local legislators file bill for seawalls, conservation groups oppose

Conservationists, though, oppose the legislation, which they believe will severely impact sea turtle nesting. Florida’s state Legislature began meeting in session Tuesday. In an attempt to protect properties from steadily rising sea levels, state Sen. Tom Wright, R-New Smyrna Beach, and Rep. Tom Leek, R-Ormond Beach, filed identical bills, State Bill 1504 and House Bill 1133. Both are titled Coastal Construction and Preservation. According to the bills, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection would be required, rather than authorized, to issue permits for rigid coastal armoring structures, or seawalls, as long as they meet the qualifications. It’s not something that conservation organizations are happy about.

Home Prices Are Falling in These Cities—While They re Rising Just About Everywhere Else

Home Prices Are Falling in These Cities-While They re Rising Just About Everywhere Else Home Prices Are Falling in These Cities-While They re Rising Just About Everywhere Else Home prices are rising nearly everywhere due to record-low mortgage rates and a lack of homes for sale-except for these places where prices are falling. Elena Cox, provided by FacebookTwitterEmail Everyone by now has some familiarity with America s daunting pandemic-era real estate math: Take an all-consuming demand for new homes and bigger spaces, add in low mortgage rates and historically paltry inventory levels, and it all equals home prices that are skyrocketing to unheard of heights. And it seems to be happening just about everywhere.
