We asked Plant City: If you could give the city of Plant City any present for Christmas, what would it be and why?
“More dinner places!” – Laura Schmidt
“Something more fun besides a bar and the Strawberry Festival for the older snowbirds.” – April Langdale Brown
“Places to sit outside and enjoy with friends at night. An upscale bar, not a dive.” – Janae Sparkman
“Pay increases. City workers are underpaid and it’s difficult to hire good people when other places are paying more.” – Troy Martin
“A homeless shelter, to get them off the street.” – Crystal Johnson
“A Kroger!” – Kimme Vazquez
“Dinner options downtown. The people of Plant City have earned it. They begged for a national chain and got it, now they deserve locally owned cuisine at night in the heart of our city.” – Cody Lenz
“An endless supply of funds for road improvements.” – Nikki Kimmel Sewell
“A Target.” – Lora Webb
“A Stop Building Permit, Plant City is Too busy and crowed anymore. Or if building must continue, then an infrastructure grant.” – Jamie Farkas
“A Fresh Kitchen!” – Krislyn Welch
“A Bass Pro Shop.” – Lawrence Granger
