Why this petition matters

Started by Chris Hoffer

If you look at other counties in Florida or even in other states you will see that their county seat and fair is in the biggest or most well known city, for Seminole the seat is Sanford, for Orange county the Seat is Orlando, for Miami Dade county the seat is Miami. So why isn't Volusia county's seat and Fair at Daytona Beach.


Some Critics might say that moving the county seat and fair to Daytona Beach will cost too much, or is a stupid move but let me explain why it would be better to move the county seat and Fair to Daytona Beach.


My first point is that Daytona is one of the most well known places in the Usa and Florida, the Daytona 500 and Beaches make it a popular place. With all due respect to the city of Deland. Daytona beach is easily more well known than Deland.


My Second point is that Daytona Beach is the largest city by land in Volusia county. Deland isn't the largest city in volusia county by land or by population. If the county seat is moved to Daytona beach more people that live in Daytona beach will be able to get help directly from the county.


My third and Final point is about the Volusia County fair. If the County Fair were to be moved to Daytona beach along with the county seat, Volusia County could receive more income from the county fair due to the already popular city of Daytona beach.


My final thoughts are that if the County Seat were to be moved to daytona beach. It would be one of the best decisions this County could make.
