Now that the audits have vindicated our concerns and laid bare the specific ways malfeasance has run our once proud city into the ground, we will accept your resignations as a form of apology for the years of mistreatment we have endured through your calloused disregard of our health and financial solvency. It's time for action before any further damage is inflicted on our city. Residents living on fixed incomes in a difficult economy are wondering why you are recklessly raising our trash rates, allowing an effective tax increase, and possibly increasing our water bills without a workable plan to fix the issues which have been plaguing our city under your leadership. Stop playing games. Acknowledge what the audits have twice told you: you have failed, we deserve better, it's time to step down.

A member of our community that helps shape Winter Springs through serving on a board, making planning and zoning decisions, and also by having social media influence in our community. A comment that has left my husband and I feeling crushed and wondering where our place is in this community. Being a small business owner is already Laugh. Advertising is expensive and we are off the main road. Our expenses have skyrocketed. We have watched our friends next door close their doors. And through all of this, we have continued to keep our doors open and have continued to give back to our community. Our family. We attended city sponsored events and paid the fees I(ke everyone else. Events where we lost money but still supported Winter Springs, a place we have loved since we opened our doors in 2018* We held events at our restaurant. We invited current commissioners and the mayor to join us for great food and some lively debate with those running against them. We saw who supported small, local business when Commissioner Colangelo showed up. When Brandon Morrisey and Marie Caruso showed up. Brandon and Mark were running against each other but they were there, together. Commissioner Cade Resnick showed up with his daughters and continued to show up. Painfully, we didn't see any other Winter Springs leaders show up. Perhaps they didn't see the flyers or hear about it. Perhaps it's because of different reasons. Our school supply drive was a huge success. Just ask Seminole County Schaal Board member Abby Sanchez or the teachers and administrators at Winter Springs Elementary. Ask them how they enjoyed the teas and coffees we brought them. The Commission would know how amazing our drinks are, if they had not refused them when we provided them at no charge. The members of the VFW can tell you how we worked with them to provide food for disabled veterans. At that same event, the toys we collected went to the Winter Springs Police Department. Two pick up trucks of Lays for those less fortunate in our carnmunity. We sponsor local churches, local schools, and even local home owner associations. in a small community, getting people Into a restaurant is hard enough. Loalc at Parlour Ice Cream, they're gave. General Publ(c House is closed. Nat long ago, our restaurant had rocl<s thrown through the windows and we were called racial slurs. Now we have to contend with racially charged comments being made by a member of the community that our commissioners call friend. We have been there for Winter Springs, continue to be there for Winter Springs, but wonder if Winter Springs will allow us to continue to be there in the future. Do better. Demonstrate leadership.
