Clermont debates "red light" district

CHURCH???

Is that like having a public toe tapping bathroom in a brothel?

SCHOOL???

Perhaps the predatory pedophile educators are afraid of the competition.

The above may sound harsh but the “GREEN LIGHT” district is already in play.

They could put the stripe clubs on highway 27 off 192, there is hardly anything down there anyway and anyone who wants that type of entertainment can go away from town. They will probably get more of the tourist traffic down there too. Lets not turn Clermont into another Orange Blossom Trail with strip clubs, prostitution and drug dealers. Most of the homeowners in lake county left Orange county to live in a clean and crime free neighborhood. Come on voters get out and voice your opinion. Lets find out who voted for this and lets put them on the unemployement line. We don't need these types of jobs in Lake County!

Laura, you need to do a bit more reading before you lynch those who voted for this. Without the ordniance, these businesses can set up ANYWHERE in Clermont. I do, however, agree with you on the actual zones. There must be better locations. I don't know that 27 and 192 would work, as they are miles from the city limits (regardless of the fact that they have "Clermont" addresses). But there's got to be better locations. I hope you will join me, Laura, in fighting any adult business that actually applies for a permit in these areas.
