I thoroughly enjoyed today’s conversation with a few of Tampa Bay’s outstanding elected officials at #FPC24. Thank you, Temple Terrace Mayor Andy Ross, Hillsborough County Commissioner Gwen Myers, and St. Pete Councilmember Gina Driscoll for your time and thoughtful comments.

I am grateful for the opportunity to have served #planners across Florida as @APAFlorida chapter president for 2023-24. It's been fun and challenging, and I'm looking forward to working with new leaders in the year ahead. Happy New Year! – at Clearwater, FL
Great game! This team is fighting and thriving despite not having the great @Pp_doesit
The @OrlandoMagic get two HUGE free throws from Jalen Suggs.
Magic 94, Pacers 90 with 9.8 seconds left.
Anthony Black of the @OrlandoMagic is a total baller. Great defense, bold moves.

Congratulations to Chelsea Ross-Favero, AICP on her promotion to MPO Division Manager! She will be responsible for the overall metropolitan planning organization (transportation) functions of the agency. A well-deserved recognition of her contributions over many years.
Going to be a tough game for @OrlandoMagic. The Cavs will exploit our injuries inside all game. Heal fast, my men! #OrlandoMagic
Franz Wagner makes his first shot. #Magic offense still a bit stagnant. Tried to force a post-up to Moe Wagner. Have to get more movement in the offense. That's even with Paolo . 5-2 CLE, 10:43 1st
My NC grandfather was a Washington #Redskins fan from the beginning. Was it the 1940 championship game between the Bears and Redskins win 73-0 by slinging Sammy Baugh over Sid Luckman, or should I google?
Leading the @MiamiHEAT by 25 after 3 quarters on opening night is 🔥Let’s go Magic.
Back to LA! #LGM
Let’s give the Mets fans something to cheer about! #LGM
