Development causing big traffic problems for nearby neighborhood
I am a Navarre resident and very concerned about the lack of planning for commercial development — specifically the one on 98 from Culver’s to the Baptist Medical Park/ER.
Letter: Longtime resident speaks in favor of incorporation
As a longtime resident of Navarre, I have been involved in the local politics of Santa Rosa County for many years.
My family has owned property on the Navarre Sound since the early 1930s. I remember when there was only Mr. Robinson’s Gas and Grocery store on Hwy 98 in Navarre.
Letter: Disappointed with Holley-Navarre Water System
I am disappointed with the HNWS and its billing practices.
A convenience fee of $3 is to be added on to everyone’s bill if you elect to pay via the online payment portal.
Letter: Replacement demographics
Many of us have been curious about the change in the Democrat party. What are their goals?
Letter: Big vehicles breaking beach road rules
After Hurricane Sally, the road on the National Seashore (399) that runs from Navarre Beach to Pensacola Beach was closed for months.
When it finally opened, the speed limit was clearly marked at 25 mph (and 15 mph in some places) because of the remaining damage to the road and because some lanes were only partially open.
Letter: Local neighborhoods shouldn’t be shortcut for 98 traffic
Our road has become a bypass for 98 traffic thanks to the lack of planning of the AldI’s shopping center that dumps traffic onto Rio Vista Drive and Ortega Street.
‘Keep it simple and nimble on the beach’
I read with horror in the 03/25 edition the natural wood and wire “sand fencing” will be replaced with white vinyl (plastic) “permanent” fencing.
‘Get Gaetz gone’
Given the recent accusations and involvement with Joel Greenburg (also an accused sex trafficker), I am waiting to see if once again Republican minions rally around “the lie” of a misunderstood poor (Rep.) Matt (Gaetz).
Christ born again at the perfect time
Man solving the hatred/racism (sins) destroying our beloved America is an exercise in futility. This nonagenarian reiterates God’s is the only solution, being “Born again,” from the inside out! (John 3:7)
Letter: Why do residents need to pay for recycling?
I do not understand why the garbage trash company is charging to collect the recyclables. I will give you a little history.
