Dear Editor:
I did not vote for Mayor Norris, but I’d like to thank him for being brave; a rare trait today.
Many Republicans speak of fiscal responsibility only to spend like tourists at Disney. The mayor said we shouldn’t be building houses on every last bit of dirt in Palm Coast when our wastewater/sewage facilities are already near maximum use, we have roads that need repairs, neighborhoods would like sidewalks and speed control measures and we have parks and trails to maintain.
I agree with Mayor Norris, that borrowing money to build a sports complex is not a fiscally responsible thing to do at this time. A little common sense and he is vilified by his own. Sad.
