Tampa Before The Electric Car
State Rep. Darryl Rouson Of St. Petersburg
Is it appropriate for State Rep. Darryl Rouson to lobby Hillsborough County Planning Commissioners pushing sprawl?........here
He openly advocated for a “multi-modal” center out in the far corner of the county, where we purposely do not have urban services such as water and sewer and where the land use designation does not allow for this sort of thing. If Democrats are good for anything, isn’t it usually being anti-sprawl and pro-gay rights? Rouson appears to be neither,
but then I found he used to be a Republican.

The Spencerians Are Having A Baby
I recognize that so much is going to change. So much that I can’t even anticipate right now. But some I can. Like this blog. Four-plus years on, and I would really like to keep it going. But there’s no way it can stay the same – and because I know my focus and priorities will change with a baby in the house, I know this blog will change........here
