Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

We bought a home next to the county waterplant in 2005. A year later we received a post card informing us that a 10 million gallon watertank was being constructed. We went to the county building and found out it was going to be built right across from our driveway. Our house is on 4.45 acres so we asked if we could rezone the property so we could build a home further away from the tank. They said no, the houses in our area have to be on a minimum of 5 acres. The building process has coated our house and cars with cement overspray, the dirt has piled up on our front and back porch during the dry season everytime the wind blows. They say they can't water to keep the dust down. We are worried our homeowners insurance will cancel when they see the tank and we have a mortgage. We can't sell because our lake view is now a view of dumpsters, trash and port o potties. Do we have a good case for any legal action? Please help
