Relocate Pulse Memorial from Brownie Wise Park


Relocate Pulse Memorial from Brownie Wise Park
The Issue
The Pulse memorial is currently located in Brownie Wise Park, a peaceful conservation passive park in Kissimmee, FL. The park surrounds a vast array of natural habitats, home to protected wildlife like the majestic bald eagles, along with other precious flora and fauna. Unfortunately, this sanctuary feels the weight of construction against the community's wishes.
The roads leading into Brownie Wise Park are not equipped to handle an increase in traffic or visitors, much less the infrastructure needed for a permanent memorial. The deep environmental impact on the wildlife, the eagles' nests, and the existing habitats would be detrimental if the memorial were to remain.
It's not just about the environment; it's about democracy. The people of Osceola County have not given their support to this location. It feels as if a decision was imposed upon them – a decision not representative of the community's collective voice.
We need a memorial, but at a site that both honors the tragedy and respects our cherished local environment. Let's work together to find a location that both pays honor to the victims of the Pulse tragedy and preserves the natural beauty and wildlife of Brownie Wise Park.
Help us ensure the Pulse memorial finds a home that respects both human sentiments and nature’s gifts. Sign this petition to relocate the Pulse memorial to a more appropriate location where both historical memory and environmental conservation are held in high regard.
