The state of Florida has bought nearly 28,000 acres to be set aside for conservation, including large swaths of property in Collier and Polk counties, one of which was slated for the development of more than 1,800 homes.
Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration and cabinet approved the purchases earlier this week. Prices for the land sites have not been disclosed, but public documents indicate a combined price could be over $150 million.
The land that was bought includes 25,039 acres within the Caloosahatchee-Big Cypress Corridor in Collier and Hendry counties.
