州立公園法的通過標誌著對州內強大開發利益的勝利，加強了對這些珍貴土地的保護。

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill into law to protect state parks from certain developments.

The new law, in response to controversial plans by DeSantis' administration, bans the construction of golf courses, ball fields, and sports facilities in state parks.

The legislation resulted from widespread, bipartisan backlash last summer, with nature lovers and conservationists protesting development plans with slogans like 'Save Don't Pave' and 'Parks Over Profit'.

The law, unanimously approved by both chambers of Florida's Republican-controlled state legislature, goes into effect on July 1.

Government officials are now required to give Floridians at least 30 days' notice ahead of public hearings concerning proposed changes to conservation areas in state parks.

The law's passage is seen as a significant win for grassroots activism, drawing a clear line around the protection of Florida's beloved state parks.

Republican State Sen. Gayle Harrell emphasized the importance of safeguarding state parks with 'no wiggle room' for unwanted development.

Harrell's involvement was motivated by the proposed construction of a golf complex at Jonathan Dickinson State Park in her South Florida district.

The legislation marks a shift in dynamics as bipartisan efforts reign in DeSantis' administration, a previously staunch Republican ally.

The state parks serve as havens of wilderness amidst Florida's increasingly developed landscapes.

Protecting these natural spaces has been a rallying cry for environmental groups and residents alike, leading to a united front against unwanted development.

DeSantis, responding to the public outcry, distanced himself from the controversial proposals and appointed a new agency head in the wake of the backlash and scrutiny.

The passage of the state park law signals a victory over powerful development interests within the state, reinforcing protections for these treasured lands.
