From
The Florida AirBoat Association web site:
Our
public water access rights are under a serious attack by local
governments. Once again, development-oriented county
commissioners have slapped us in the face. In Osceola County,
they have gone so far as to ban alligator hunting by airboat
after 11 p.m. on both East Lake Toho and
West Lake Toho.
To add insult to injury, they went so far as to even deny us
our right to speak at a public meeting. Dozens of
Airboaters, NRA members and other conservationists and
sportsmen were locked out of the decision-making process
because we were not allowed to speak during the public
hearing.
By breaking their promise about gator hunting, the Osceola
Commission has now placed a year-round airboat
restriction/curfew on these two lakes. Of course, all other
type of vessels may hunt at any time during gator harvest
season.

more about the action they have taken on our behalf please
