   Before passing judgement on the street Department..

   Badluck. Next time cream the dog and then you just have some hair and blood to clean off.
   Ive seen too many people swerve for an animal and come out worse for wear.

   @Bad Luck
   Sorry to hear that but FYI There are dogs seen entering and exiting a home there on Century Blvd in front of the Food Giant Parking Lot, next to Green Street beside the Family Dollar.
   9501 Century Blvd.
   Not sure if that was the offending canines.
   The animal control officer was called about numerous stray cats and dogs in the area last week.
   I suggest you contact them again.
   Stephanie Nowlin Animal Control Officer
   850-554-0964 cell
   850-595-0097
   Your call in addition to others may save lives.
   Sorry about your car, I am sure that is very upsetting.
   Irresponsible animal owners are a pestilence themselves.
   I do not have a good attorney’s number but hope you have no problem finding that yourself.

   “The street department/mayor needs to bring all the signs in the town up to the regulation/compliance ” I think the mayor has got his hands full right now.. If ECSO parked there, why not have them park at every single corner, driveway, and intersection?

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> For instance that curve behind there needs to look like this:

    The advisory sign need to have 15 MPH not the 25 as shown in the figure above, be clear, my dear

    Be a good place for a radar camera or a parked ECSO.

    Good price on T-bone.

    If the town would go up the hill to the broken utility pole that got plowed over by a hit and run April 2016. that used to light the flashing light on the speed limit sign coming into town, may prevent such, rather than ignore the busted pole.

    OR a cheaper fix:

    The street department/mayor needs to bring all the signs in the town up to the regulation/compliance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control with the new highly retro reflective signs that the Federal Highway Administration has researched and enacted regulations that are to be followed.

    For instance that curve behind there needs to look like this:

    https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2009/images/fig2c_02_sm.gif

    Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) – FHWA

    Of course the driver of the Red Nissan need to be held accountable also.
