?We all have an ability to conserve and preserve,? said Barbara Stokes, managing member for Stokes Development.
Stokes? company is planning Caspian Estates, a nine-lot, 1.27-acre development on CR 30-A. After learning of a vegetative community on the property, the company revised the development plans.
Though it is cheaper to clear-cut a lot, Stokes? aim is to construct developments that are aesthetically compatible with the buildings and landscape of 30A.
?(The native vegetation) is part of the reason people come here,? Stokes said.
I googled "Caspian Estates" and "Stokes Development" and came up with nothing. Does anyone know if this is the obscenely small wedge-shaped piece of land in front of the Cassine Gardens townhomes? If it is (and only if it is), I am less than impressed with the developer's self-congratulary pat on the back about their environmental awareness and compassion. You could hardly put a Seaside post office on that wedge, let alone cram in nine residences as they're planning.
