To the Editor:

I agree with a recent letter you received regarding all these apartments they are building, when what we need is to make Ocala safer and better.

And what I mean by this is that there are areas of Ocala that need light to see the roads better. More traffic lights where stop signs are, because obviously some people can’t read.

We need to think about the kids’ safety in school by having more safety patrols around schools to guide traffic. Things like this are needed in Ocala, not more people to make this place a Hell.

And also, me being of Hispanic descent, maybe having a Puerto Rican parade for us wouldn’t hurt to be put in consideration being that we are growing here in Ocala due to all these apartments and houses being built.
