The "woods" in our neighborhoods are just an illusion.
Each parcel of land on this example street in North Port is individually owned and subject to being completely clear-cut for residential development, removing vital habitat for our wildlife and erasing our tree canopy and native plant life. Many of North Port's surrounding areas such as Port Charlotte, Harbour Heights , Venice, Sarasota and Englewood also consist of streets/neighborhoods like this one.
Collectively with the support of concerned citizens we can acquire and permanently conserve land in our neighborhoods in its natural state forever, thereby creating a balance between development and the environment for the co-existence of all living things.
