Dear editor,
It's nice to see current ongoing projects in Crestview, but when will the people of Crestview, the biggest city with the most population in Okaloosa County, ever see major restaurant chains built here?
Like LongHorn Steakhouse, Outback Steakhouse, Olive Garden, etc.
I don't want to be in a wheelchair or using a walker before one of these establishments might be built.
We have enough fast food restaurants here — and around 100 churches. People after church want to eat a real meal. I think it's way overdue we have the enjoyment of formal dining here instead of giving the revenue to other nearby cities.
There again, Crestview’s loss.
Raising taxes on our citizens is not the fix. It's Crestview leadership that creates which way the future goes.
Time to wake up and smell the roses. Hindsight 20-20 is not good management.
