Mrs. Mary Daniels comments of reconsideration of legal advertising are as follows: "As you know the Orlando Sentinel newspaper has deserted the south Seminole areas far as local, daily news coverage is concerned. The citizens in this area need local daily news coverage. We can only get this through a good newspaper. We must be able to follow the day by day happenings of our county government. We must know where new sewer plants and industry will be located in our county. We must be able to follow zoning changes that affect us personally. Most of all we must be aware of what the government of Winter Springs is doing. We can only do this by reading a local daily newspaper. I think its up to each of us to subscribe to a newspaper that will cover our local news. I ask the Council, when possible to spend our advertising monies with a newspaper that will give us daily local coverage. The Sentinel Star will not."
