Citizens need their addresses visible

Editor,

I was just wondering about something. Do your residents have their addresses posted out in the yard, or somewhere visible? It’s important, so that the rescue squad, police department and fire department can find where people live in case of an emergency. Sometimes we see that problem here. The rescue squad doesn’t know where to go, because the address is not outside the people’s home.

One thing I’m proud of is that the sheriff’s department is cracking down on the loud noise. I’m glad you all have passed a noise ordinance in Andalusia. We should also have one here, but we do not have anyone pulling people over for loud noise and giving them even one ticket. Sure, they write tickets for everything else, even speeding, but no tickets for loud noise.

The loud noise is just as important as it is for giving tickets for speeding and everything else. We don’t even have a drug fuss no more here, and it is all over the place, even up and down our street all the time. It is getting worse every day it comes.

It wouldn’t do for me to be a cop. I would show you how to get Florala cleaned up and a nice place to live.
