Sussex cannot handle more people

October 31, 2025

This letter addresses all the issues of the steady increase in building more houses and apartments. Our medical personnel cannot cover this many people, and it’s definitely more people than our hospitals could possibly hold. God help us if we ever have another pandemic like COVID.

And don’t forget our highways and secondary roads; they are crazy busy, with accidents all the time.

Something has to be done to stop this, or the nice beach and resort towns will become exactly like the busy cities people are trying to escape from.
