We were at the Hillsborough County Center in Tampa last night for a huge turnout amongst the local Latino community to save one woman's job.
Speaking of the County Commission, they rejected a fertilizer ban that prompted vocal criticism by one person who wants to be a part of that board later this year, Linda Saul-Sena. Jim Hosler, running against Saul-Sena and board chairman Ken Hagan, voices his opinions on what's been going on lately in that race here.
Linda Saul-Sena's former colleagues have the weekend to figure out who will be their top choices to replace her and John Dingfelder, as the cattle call to audition for those two positions takes place this coming Monday morning at the Tampa City Council.
And the remaining members of the City Council yesterday voted unanimously to support calling for the high speed rail authority to pursue new federal grants to extend the rail line to Tampa International Airport. No word yet on what Mayor Iorio thinks of that.
