Wellington Wants Stadium Jumping To Stay Here, No Doubt About It

Stadium Jumping wants to stay in Wellington and the Village of Wellington wants them to stay here in town too. At the hearing on August 20th only one counselperson, Laurie Cohen was against getting this move started right away and approving the relocation. No one else on the counsel wants Stadium Jumping to go through  a one to two year review and approval process that most moves such as this have to go through. Mark Bellissimo is Stadium Jumping's rival and he is accusing the Village of giving Stadium Jumping special treatment.

We are talking about multi million dollar horse shows here. We are talking jobs, the economy and a lifestyle that Wellington residents have come to know and love. Stadium Jumping was on track to get this relocation through without going through any hoops until Laurie Cohen said this was unfair and this matter needed to be looked at more closely.  She says the Village of Wellington should apply the same standard of review on all landowners equally and not give Stadium Jumping the go ahead right now.

So what happened Monday night? Well, the counsel voted 4 to 1 to defer the matter. Keep up with this popular Wellington news topic on this blog about Wellington Florida.
