Letter to the Editor: Streaming into the future: First efforts into a live parade

December 10, 2020 By Stephanie Hrenchir

There was no decision on whether I’d watch the first “live stream” of the 2020 Christmas parade in Plant City. I knew I’d be viewing it from the comfort of my home, sitting on a large recliner facing the 4K television that I selected to watch it on. My popcorn was ready. It was different […]

August 27, 2020 By Paul G. Lindsey

Dear Mayor, City Manager and Parks Director, With the sky-high interest in drive-in movie theatres these days, I propose the city establish a temporary drive-in theatre in the Plant City Stadium complex area. The face of the parking area on the west side of the stadium is ideal for movie watching.   The city can acquire […]

Letter to the Editor: Response to David Bailey

July 23, 2020 By Craig Latimer, Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections

As the Hillsborough County Supervisor of Elections, I was dismayed to see a letter to the editor (David Bailey, July 16) that contained completely false information. And while the paper included an editor’s note, I think it’s imperative that I confront, and correct, this misinformation and false narrative directly.  The fact is, I mailed out […]

July 16, 2020 By David Bailey

A recent writer (C.L. Townsend, May 28) advocated mail-in ballots for the upcoming election. He says his primary concern is public safety during this time of the coronavirus pandemic. Although we already have the right to request a mail-in ballot for those who really need it, our Supervisor of Elections, Craig Latimer, has sent these […]

Letter to the Editor: Comments to Plant City Redevelopment Agency

May 28, 2020 By Dee Allen, Walden Lake resident

Plant City has experienced plenty of residential growth lately, much of it starter or one-step-above starter home development on small lots scattered around the outskirts of the city. Further, it is well known the city has an interest in midtown revitalization to maintain and improve the character of that area. Within the midst of all […]

Letter to the Editor: Vote by Mail offers safe participation in elections

May 28, 2020 By C.L. Townsend, Jr. RPh., candidate for FL HD 58

The current status of the national COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns about the economic impact and the risks to public health. Further, the situation is occurring in the context of the national election season. The good news is that we already have a system that can help alleviate a lot of concerns voters may have […]

Letter to the Editor: WLCA must stand strong again

October 24, 2019 By Nick Brown

Dear Walden Lake Neighbors, The failure of the Walden Lake Country Club will once again test the resolve of our homeowners’ association, the WLCA. Five years ago, then-club owner Visions Golf applied for rezoning of the property for residential development. Visions’ application was abandoned following a July 2016 planning board hearing at which I joined […]

Letter to the Editor: Police Lives Matter

November 3, 2015 By Amber Jurgensen

Dear Editor, I was pleased to read a positive article about our law enforcement people. Some forget they put their lives on the road daily. They are there to protect the innocent citizens. It is a shame that they are accused of misdeeds when arresting criminals. I come from a law enforcement family — three brothers and […]

Letter: Do your research on Walden Lake rezoning

September 23, 2015 By Amber Jurgensen

Dear Editor, As a concerned citizen of our Walden Lake Community, I would like to add one more letter in regards to the rezoning issue. There is a group of residents that are adamantly opposed to rezoning. They are quite visible, with many opportunities to explain their views, and they have opportunity to gain support. With good strategy and an […]
