“The next time you swipe your debit or credit card at the gas pump, you’ll be doing more than filling your tank.

And it’s not just in California. Property owners in a seven-county area of South Florida—including Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties—currently are fighting a scheme similar to Plan Bay Area, called Seven50. The fever has spread from coast to coast.”
