Southwest Florida

mean i think we've

already gone pretty far as of right now i mean we're you know got a lot going on on marco we're trying to get our feet in the door and um in naples um i mean yeah i see us i see us going far as far as um you know obviously keep you know building homes on marco and then um branching out to naples um And then maybe even more in the Southwest Florida, you know.

I think, you know, obviously we have all the right people working with us and, yeah, sky's the limit.

Yeah, I agree with Bobby.

And now it's it's, you know, the expansion is happening.

It's going to happen here very quick with the demand moving down here to an amount of people that want to be here.

You know, there's a lot of opportunity in southwest Florida, especially for a 31, almost 32 year old company that has a very good reputation and Never had a lawsuit once.

So, you know, because we take care of our clients and always do the right thing.

It's not even something I thought about at 30 years old.

The last 16 years of my life has really, uh, been interesting, getting involved in, in local politics in Southwest Florida, and in watching that journey.

But I, I think what it says more about is the people of Florida.

You know, this place is a meritocracy.

The issue isn't that Floridians are opposed to data or AI.

It's that our state in particular, you know this living in southwest Florida, I know this growing up in south Florida, that we have become overdeveloped where marshes and the edge of the Everglades once stood are now strip malls and another five below and a brand new housing development.

more and more are getting built up.

And so we feel the data center issue so acutely because of how overdevelopment has been so rampant in the last decade.

And we should also point out here, because I remember this vividly, Byron Donald's, one of the reasons he won his congressional race initially, he talked about local issues.

The big one was the Clean Water Act.

And he was one of the biggest proponents of making sure our waterways here in Southwest Florida were clean and clear.

I would imagine data centers being put up here or elsewhere in a state like Florida, where water scarcity is always a concern, It's probably not the smartest thing environmentally.

It's not even something I thought about at 30 years old.

The last 16 years of my life has really been interesting, getting involved in local politics in Southwest Florida and in watching that journey.

But I think what it says more about is the people of Florida.

You know, this place is a meritocracy.

And, um, to give back and, and all the money went to that Uh, there was no hidden agendas.

And, you know, we were just very happy that we were, you know, could be a part of it and kick in for, you know, all the victims here in Southwest Florida.

Uh, it meant a lot to us.

It really did.
