Great....now we can continue to have gridlock, crumbling streets, gangs in AHS, uncontrolled growth, cheap builders run amuck, no vision, and no plan! Sweet!

First of all, have you ever been to a city council meeting to ask what the growth plan is for Apopka? Do you understand that the plans for gridlock have been under discussion for years and that the city of Apopka has been working with the State of Florida to come up with a decisive plan to fix the problem? However, with any major road development it takes years to implement becuase they have to buy the property to build a major road way to re-direct the bulk of traffic out of downtown Apopka. And yet, that major road is almost finished that will redirect a huge amount of traffic from Apopka.

Do you also realize that Bill Arrowsmith and Kathy Till have been large supporters of a new vision for Apopka. Bill Arrowsmith has been trying for years to bring big business to Apopka.

Do you realize that the gang problem is on a rise in every city in the Central Florida area due to an influx in population growth? It's not just Apopka.

How long have you lived in Apopka?

Did you know that Bill Arrowsmith was the one who went on a personal crusade to make sure that lot sizes in subdivisions were increased so as to stop the zero lot line - less expensive homes in Apopka?

Bill and Kathy have always wanted to make sure that Apopka maintains it's growth in a postive way and all along the way appeasing idiots who complain about things they have no idea about.

You attend every council meeting, attend planning boards, research what the city actually has in mind and then make intellegiant comments about what you would like to fix.

And by the way, Kathy and Bill are the only two with websites for you to email them at anytime of the day with questions about what the cities plans truly are. They also give their personal cell phone numbers for you to reach them. They are not hiding from you and they welcome your questions, which is better than some of the other big politicians in other cities in Florida.

With all of this said, if you actually knew you what you were talking about you would be proud to have them as your city council members for the next 4 years!
