Why relocate our courthouse?

Dear editor,

May 30 is additional proof we don't need to relocate the Santa Rosa County courthouse from its county seat!

With heavy media coverage that two judges would hear over 600 cases, there was potential cause for pandemonium, and issues with parking, (yet) it seems everything went smoothly in our town.

A huge thank you to the SR county sheriff’s department; seems from this bird’s eye view, our little, outdated law of justice building and staff showed up!

Milton citizens, please research the true motives of some pushing to "move" versus "renovate" our courthouse. There's plenty of property!

Let's keep this where it belongs, with less taxpayer dollars, and embrace its history.

FRANCES McDONALD
