Take a hard look at the fatalities just on Seminole Blvd since the beginning of the year. PSTA bus stops, in many cases, are not where one would expect them to be,
and are not uniform. By that, some stops may be nothing more than a pole stuck in the ground, while others a shelter. Pedestrial crossing signs at bus stops would alert drivers of the possibilty of people attempting to cross a Blvd or Hwy. Crosswalks can be blocks away from where a bus stop might be. Signals on traffic lights should be adjusted. Try crossing Ulmerton Road in the 33 seconds or so the traffic signals gives. Try doing that using a walker or cane. Take a good hard look at the many road side memorials during the past year and ask why? Why did this have to happen without playing the blame game.? Before I leave my house, I ask myself one question. Do I really have to leave today and put myself at risk. It is easy to find the problems pedestrians face when they have to walk the streets, the difficulties are recognizing the problems and fixing them.

As usual government lied to us. They said if we switch over to reclaimed we will have water forRead More lawns whenever we wanted!!!!! NOT!!! Plus they didin't tell us that we would probably have to replace all valves in sprinkler system shortly after because this water isn't as clean and destroys them. You then have to put in different ones to accommodate the grit etc in the water. Same with the heads those little screens get clogged a lot more and need service more. So much for SAViNG $$$$$$ NOT
