Save Bardmoor
Join our fight to save Bardmoor Golf and Tennis Club and the remaining green space in Pinellas County! It's not too late but we need your help! The owner of the 150-acre Bardmoor Golf and Tennis Club is agreeing to sell to Wheelock Communities and Gentry Land. The companies are planning new housing developments and commercial properties. In order for the re-development to take place the land must be re-zoned. Currently, it is listed as recreational, open space and that is how most residents want to keep it. Despite the potential for plunging property values, what residents say they worry about the most, is the loss of green open spaces and the havoc more people, buildings, homes and cars will create to an already congested footprint. 
“As residents of Pinellas County, we have to protect our green spaces, we have enough concrete and before you know it we will lose it all if we don’t fight to protect the little green space that is left.
This is not just about Bardmoor.” ~Jennifer Sullivan |

How Can you Help?
Wheelock may be strong but there is a lot that must happen for this deal to take place!
First, the land is currently zoned for recreational /open space. That means according to Pinellas County’s Comprehensive Plan, “The purpose of this category is to depict those areas of the county that are now used, or appropriate to be used for open space and or recreational purposes: and to recognize the significance of providing open space and recreational areas as part of the overall land use plan.” Primary Uses include: Public/Private open space, public/private park, public recreational facility, public beach/water access, golf course/clubhouse. The property would have to be rezoned and that takes public support and County Commissioner votes. If you do not want to see developers move in .... then it is imperative that you speak out. All of these steps can be found on this page.
