TST Ventures is in the process of submitting a proposal to build a new recycling center on 16 acres of land at the Celery Fields in Sarasota County, Fla., but hundreds of local residents oppose the company’s plan because they are concerned about the noise, the smell, the traffic and the overall environmental impact that the recycling center could have on the wildlife and waterways of Celery Fields.
The proposed plan is expected to be presented to the Sarasota County Planning Commission and County Commissioners in the next couple of months.
