Isn’t it time for the recipients of pandemic welfare / aid in the way of unemployment benefits and meals etc. to begin to “pay back” by volunteering to clean up public areas in need (Magic Sands unusable parking lot to name one) of such sprucing up??? I am sure the County and the State would have no trouble conjuring up a list of “need to do” small projects (painting fire hydrants) for small groups of volunteers……be a nice way of saying “thank you” to government for its aid during these rough times.
