Beautiful! Now if the new mayor would take every restaurant on the West side of Florence and add said restaurants to irby street and surrounding areas of this side of Florence,,,, 🤔 think about the citizens of the city of which elected you MAYOR(Madame Mayor) and turn around this dreary side of yours, mine , ours south side of FLORENCE. Don't wait until the end of your term (as Wukela did ) MAKE CHANGES NOW ✌️ P. S. Don't stop with restaurants..... #oneachside #bethemayorofchange
