Save Calusa appealed the zoning approval in court. On May 1, 2024, the Florida Supreme Court reversed the 2021 zoning decision. Save Calusa WON!! But then in December 2024, the developer submitted a revised application proposing 540 homes on the same property.

All Miami-Dade County residents should be concerned about residential development on Parks and Recreation land, the release of long-standing land-use protections, limited resident input, environmental impacts, and the lack of community benefits.
