Email to the Largo Mayor and CommissionersMayor and City Commission, After attending the most recent open forum meeting I was shocked at the lack of concern expressed by the speakers for the proposed cuts to emergency services. This lack of concern raised the question in my mind if the speakers accurately represent the city population as a whole. I requested from staff a list of speakers with their addresses, and upon reviewing the addresses the following information was determined. Of the 46 speakers only 14 were actually residents of the City of Largo. 30 were determined to live in other cities and unincorporated Pinellas County. 2 did not list addresses and their residence could not be verified. I hope this information is useful as you attempt to make the difficult budget decisions in the upcoming weeks.
Thank you for your time,
