Gas stations don’t hurt the city of Ocala

To the Editor:

This is ridiculous! Old stations can be, and are torn down. Old tanks removed and the land reused. How does an additional station increase the number of calls fore city or county services? By this overly simplistic logic, Ocala should only have one gas station. Stations that no longer take in enough from sales will close. If we followed this character’s ideas, we would still have 1930’s style single pump stations that dispensed one gallon at a time.
