Margate is going down hill

Sunday, March 7, 2010


I had to laugh at the article about teens calling Margate a ghetto. They are spot on. Fifteen years ago teens called it mudgate. Forget the home boarded up on Margate Blvd. What about one that has living room furniture and a BBQ on the same Blvd. right at their front door! Are there no code restrictions? 441 is disgusting. Why all of a sudden on the corner of Royal Palm Blvd. and Rock Island Road there appears a semi trailer, signs look like they belong on State Rd. 7 and debris being dumped there. Talk about unsightly. Look at the Chevy Chase strip center on Margate Blvd. That alone is not kept up and is run down looking.

Margate leaders can do this city justice by just cleaning up for starters. Also, fighting against term limits speak volumes of just keeping dead wood in city hall. We need fresh blood and fresh paint. For once the teens in Margate speak the truth. Margate is going down hill at a fast pace. Having stores like Payless foods, yet turning down a used book stores some years back, speaks volumes on the low intelligence going on in city hall.
