📣 Good news: The St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners voted to adopt the MAXIMUM Conservation Impact Fee, phased in over five years.

💵 This is a big step in the right direction for funding land conservation and could generate up to $3M annually once fully implemented.

🙏 THANK YOU to everyone who emailed our Commissioners. Your voices are being heard!
