These recent decisions at the state level show that conservation and property rights can coincide with one another
Land ownership has been a cornerstone of the United States for hundreds of years, so much so that our Founding Fathers enshrined the right to private property in the Constitution. In recent years, this right in the state of Florida has been under increasing threat.
The Florida Landowner Association’s mission is to defend the rights of property owners throughout Florida and to educate the public on the vital role these rights play in supporting both landowners and their communities. We believe that when landowners are empowered to make decisions about their land, communities are stronger, and Florida’s legacy is preserved.

Recently, Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet demonstrated forward-looking leadership by approving conservation projects across Osceola, Martin, Hendry, Putnam, Collier, Duval, Okaloosa, Hardee, Okeechobee, Pasco, Hillsborough, and Leon counties. One of these approvals included four acres of waterfront property in Destin. These actions will ensure that thousands of acres are protected, preserved, and made available for public use. Not only is this a win for landowners, but the communities across these counties.

Spending 83 million dollars that was meant for our wildlife corridor on beach front property that is in no way tied to to preserving wildlife is nothing more than embezzlement
Desantis and his ILK are dedicated to helping the developers destroy Florida and pad their own hedge funds and bank accounts
