Disappointed to hear @CityofTampa City Council voted unanimously to pay $1 million for 3 years of sprinkler citations. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Tampa SOP, penalize instead of incentivize. 👮🏼
Pilot rebate program coming from @TampaBayWater.

Disappointed council unanimously voted to hire water cops for the next 3 years. It would be nice if citation money could go towards rebates that incentivize residents to save water. #Copland 👮🏼💦#SaveIt

Happy Gasparilla Weekend! @CityofTampa

@BobBuckhorn It's not that's it's not a great idea, is it the right time? Our roads are atrocious and $4-8mill would be better served on our existing transit system, more so than pie in the sky bike loops. Understandably the older generation is in a rush to get as much done, fast as possible.

Enjoying the paths and the weather! 🚲☀️@HillsboroughFL

@vmybor1 is becoming a landfill, its gotten progressively worse over last couple years with new construction. @ItsMeGwen813 Where you at!? Spent another one of my day's off raking up trash near construction sites.

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@carlsonbill Yep, this. With data to present! 👏🏼

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@carlsonbill A grant paid for the previous comprehensive report, correct? You mentioned new results on podcast. Who pays this time? When to expect? Can we add utility variables like water usage, wastewater dump by gallons/day etc?👍🏼

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@TaterTatiana @carlsonbill @CityofTampa Couldn't hurt. The city pitches projects as if they're already approved and frequently inflates ease of process, a lil' more lawfulnessss couldn't hurt. Valid point regardless. 👏🏼

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@carlsonbill I like the idea of swearing @CityofTampa staff members in before presenting misleading info in their presentations...apparently council feels the differently. 🤔

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@pearson is a company that could be a lot better at their role in the state testing process. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

In response to @CityofTampa council getting raises...its overdue, but won't effect candidate pool.

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

Spoke about water regulations and the ever popular once a week watering @CafeconTampa a few weeks ago. 💦

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

Nice to see council discussing ideas on improving voter turnout. It's not lack of good candidates, its not the yearly salary, its the difficulty in overcoming long standing unions and groups that move elections. With a 13% voter turnout the population is not represented.

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@CityofTampa Love the outreach this shows providing!

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@CityofTampa contractors and @MyFDOT should have to post QR codes on sites for community feedback...the 'meet once every 6 months' with no new info is unrealistic in private industry.

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

@BN9 Dang those black ears! 🤣

[MDforCityCouncil @MDCityCouncil]

Currently in Ybor:

As a city we have our shade challenges, what doesnt help is the carté blanché we give to @MyFDOT with expansion projects. See below in comments.
