in your neighborhood? If so, why do you oppose having them in your area? Do you oppose both or just one? If just one, which one? What county in Florida do you live in? Do you feel that they would bring crime to your area? I live in Orange county and we have plenty of food pantries in the area to go to for free groceries. As far as a soup kitchen goes, I believe we do have one in the downtown orando area where the homeless can get a free hot meal. I have no opposition to having both in my area because there is a huge need for them being that the economy is not that great and we do have a lot more people now than ever before that need those services. I would not oppose them even if someone were to build them across the street from my house.

i am not in Florida but i don't see a problem with them being in my neighbourhood especially if they are needed. i know of one in my city that is in an urban area and no one has complained.
