Sun-Sentinel questions FPL on more Turkey Point nukes

Eye on Miami has published a South Florida Sun-Sentinel editorial in Sunday's paper that refreshingly calls into question the FPL push for more nuclear reactors at Turkey Point.

The entire editorial is reprinted at Eye On Miami, so we won't spoil it for readers ...

Bury those lines, Coconut Grove tells FPL

Coconut Grove Village Council Village Council has unanimously voted to have the FPL lines along 27th Avenue buried and called on the city of Miami or Miami-Dade County and FPL to pay all costs, reports Coconut Grove Grapevine.

It's the latest in the ongoing saga on what to do about unsightly power lines along 27th Avenue in the Grove. Residents wanted the lines buried, but FPL says it's "too costly" and just wants to move the concrete poles back.
