I agree.

Dissolution is the term you are looking for. The District you live in would have to have a vote. Only those living in that district would have a say in order to secede. The county would eventually take care of law enforcement and streets and or roads. There is the route of state legislation, but this would be doubtful. Localized election would be the better route.

Section 165.051, Florida Statutes, provides the exclusive manner in which a municipality may be dissolved, by either a special act of the Legislature or an ordinance of the governing body of the municipality, approved by vote of the qualified voters, thereby precluding such action by amendment of the municipality's charter pursuant to section 166.031, Florida
Statutes.

How about a parking garage that cost a little over 50,000 per parking space? Maybe a brand new wastewater treatment plant for potential new building for 150 million? Yes, we are taken full advantage of.
