Abstract

The article offers information on Amendment 4, a ballot initiative dealing with the issue of local land-use plans in Florida. The Amendment 4's goal is to democratize the decision on development and it would require a majority vote in a public referendum before a local government could change a land-use plan. It notes that Florida Hometown Democracy contends that many local governments have allowed developers to do what they pleased, disregarding its effects on Floridian's quality of life.
