Create high-density overlay districts outside flood and evacuation zones, and allow commercial, retail, office, live-work, and rental housing there.
Support development that fit community character, oppose out-of-control development and industrial data centers, and require developers to fund needed project infrastructure.
Issue with the biggest divide
County property taxes
Expand the property-tax base through high-density overlay districts and generate local revenue without raising taxes.
Hold line on property taxes and county fees, reduce spending described as wasteful, and cast dissenting FY2022 millage votes.
Infrastructure maintenance
Reinvest revenue in infrastructure maintenance and improvements.
Upgrade wastewater and stormwater systems, and require developers to fund infrastructure tied to their projects.
Beach protection projects
No sourced answer
Seek funding for beach-nourishment projects, protect the Tampa Bay Estuary and waterways, and prepare for coastal storm resilience.
Affordable housing
Offer affordable housing near workplaces for teachers and first responders, and pursue housing options for veterans and seniors.
Warn that a statewide homestead-tax expansion could make it harder for working families to move into Pinellas and reduce the available workforce.
