AMELIA ISLAND REAL ESTATE: For the first time since the real estate market began softening, some local professionals are muttering words of promise. Hope. Enthusiasm. Fernandina Beach Realtors are seeing signs of improvement, favorable trends, some predicting “2012 will be a much better year.”

Florida Governor Trumpets Expansion at Omni Amelia Island Plantation
Florida’s Governor Rick Scott came to Amelia Island last week to trumpet the Omni’s expansion plans at Amelia Island Plantation. The $85 million project will enhance many of the Plantation’s amenities. The project will create jobs, tax revenues, and a feeling of prosperity for Nassau County. It is encouraging when billionaire businessman and Omni owner, Robert Rowling, invests in your area.

John Crawford’s Message of Austerity, Nassau County
“We’re fixing to get inundated (with foreclosures),” Crawford says. “We’ve always felt immune in Nassau County.” Government — at all levels — will experience “shrinking tax revenues for some time to come,” he says.

Kelley and Young For Citizen-Friendly Government
Kelley and Young are tirelessly championing frugal, streamlined, citizen-friendly government. Less spending. Fewer taxes. More efficiency. Being a lone voice on a commission or board can be lonely, however. Especially when you are the new politician on the block.

Notions For Nassau County’s Building Department
Let’s hope that Nassau County commissioners will catch wind of these few notions and move on them. One impacts the county’s appearance, the other taxpayers’ pocketbooks.
