YBOR STREET BEATS


Smell the flowers
Feel the wind dance on your skin
Taste the pureness of an approaching rain
And always, always
Stop to listen to the music

City Elections Reflect Tampa’s Apathy, Resistance to Change

Tampa voters are satisfied residing in a large city with no national identity, an out-migration of tech-savvy, well-educated Millennials, a below-average public education system, and an eight-year stream of negative 
national headlines. 
---
The City Council races also reflected the city’s reluctance to change. Longtime City Councilman Charlie Miranda, who has served without distinction for decades, received 57 percent of the vote against two challengers.  One of them, John Godwin,  enumerated innovative programs for transit, the environment, housing, and a culture of inclusiveness 
to no avail.
