The Conservancy of Southwest Florida worries the development is in the midst of prime panther habitat. The Conservancy also has concerns that the project does not meet the RLSA’s requirements for fiscal neutrality, other endangered species’ protections, and smart growth. Audubon Florida does not share these same concerns.
