Lack of green spaces, not boats, RVs, make Orange Park ugly


Posted


If we held an ugly town contest, Orange Park would win, no contest.
You may hide every boat and RV in (Orange Park), and it will remain the ugliest down in North Florida. A drive along Blanding Boulevard in (Orange Park) it’s so ugly, it’s depressing. It’s comical to me the concern is boats and RVs in people’s driveways.
Everyone reading this knows exactly what I am talking about. How about planting a tree? How about putting an end to the endless bombardment of mismatched ugly signage along Blanding? If ever a town needed a beautification initiative, Orange Park would be its poster child. Boats and RVs? Some of you can’t see the forest for the concrete trees.
Communities benefit and deserve beautiful green spaces. I have even heard it’s a way to attract new businesses and residents.
