We asked Facebook: Which issues with local infrastructure, development or construction would you like the city commission to address?
“Railroad overpasses. Many railroad communities like Plant City have them. Being stopped by trains is a very serious issue. Also revisit the mass transit issue. With the rapid growth Plant City is experiencing we need to continue conversations with HART. In Polk County the Citrus Connection reaches every municipality in the county, some much smaller than Plant City in population and Pasco County transit goes to Dade City and Zephyrhills. Both cities smaller than Plant City as well. Obviously we are behind other neighboring cities when it comes to mass transit.” — Paul Rodney
“Park Road” — Kimberly Morton
“I would like inexpensive reclaimed water available in residential areas.” — Dave Buyens
“Flooding on N. Collins St. Water goes up and over sidewalk. Worried about rainy season which is coming soon.” — Vicky Whitcomb
“Public Transportation” — Chris Murphy Elliott
“I second public transportation!” — Lisa Diaz
“Roads please address the roads” — Larry Forbes
“The potholes, and new roads all together!” — Lauren Hodges
“Clean up the trash! Every time I see a garbage or recycling truck, trash is flying out the back of it.” — Stacy Rebh Pace
“Water drainage issues in the Merrin St and Calhoun area. Floods every time it rains and takes days to drain.” — Cheryl A. Torres
“More light poles would be nice. So many parks and neighborhoods are pitch black at night. It’s kind of scary for delivery services or those who lack transportation and have to walk.” — Amanda Jungle
“Landscaping waste – as in why are there over a dozen sago palms in 4×8 medians on Evers Street, why are almost all City sprinkler heads spraying concrete, and why do we re-sod the library and City Hall every year when it’s not necessary? Also, who decided to put parking spots on the west side of N Thomas St in front of Plant City Entertainment when that road is barely wide enough for two cars to pass each other without the parking spots?” — Alicia May
“Coordinate traffic lights along Alexander Street.” — John Hehn
