Tampa Residents Want Their Money Back

For years, Tampa residents posted "5-minute parking" signs, like this one in Palma Ceia to keep people from parking for extended periods in front of their homes. But the city repealed the ordinance last month after they ceded their municipal authority over to the State of Florida. Now the City Council is looking at a residential parking permit program. here

Is the city going to reimburse the taxpayers to whom they allowed to purchase these expensive lawn signs? Since 1989, the city approved of, and in some cases even enforced the ordinance that the individual homeowners (at their own expense) displayed.
