Dear Friends, Whereas citizen involvement is the foundation of our representative government, and Whereas the undersigned call Central Florida their home, and Whereas three dynamic new downtown projects; a new Performing Arts Center, a new Events Center, and a renovated Citrus Bowl, are under consideration by Orange County and the City of Orlando in the coming weeks, and Whereas we strongly support these initiatives as set forth by our citizen leaders. Therefore, we respectfully encourage you to approve all three downtown community venue projects, thereby creating the public facilities our community so desperately needs and so richly deserve. Thank you for your leadership in making downtown Orlando a world-class city for generations to come. Please Note: In order to sign the petition below, we are requiring those in favor of these projects to provide a name, address, email and telephone number. Your name (if elected below)will be displayed as a supporter of the projects, but no other information will be shown online. However, your name and other information provided may be given to elected Orlando and Orange County officials to demonstrate your support of these projects.
