U.S. Supreme Court hearing Florida-Georgia water war case
In the latest chapter in years of battling between Florida and Georgia, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Monday in a dispute about divvying up water in a river system shared by the states. Florida filed a lawsuit in 2013 arguing that Georgia is using too much water from the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint river system, which starts in northern Georgia and ends in Apalachicola Bay in Franklin County. Florida contends that the situation has caused damage to the Apalachicola River and Apalachicola Bay’s signature oyster industry. More from the News Service of Florida and Bloomberg Law.
Seminole County plans to spend nearly $3.5 million to buy a dozen parcels of land including a convenience store and a small shopping center near Oxford Road as part of its long-sought efforts to transform the blighted area around the old Orlando Jai-Alai fronton into a vibrant community of shops, offices and apartments.
