A questionnaire from a Tampa police union is raising eyebrows because of some of the questions they’re asking political candidates looking for endorsements.
One week after voting in favor of an ordinance that would have given voters the ability to declare a housing emergency and set limits on the amount by which landlords could increase rent, Tampa City Councilors voted the ordinance down by a 4-2 vote.
Though it could produce a legal battle, in a Thursday meeting, the Tampa City Council could advance a plan to declare a housing state of emergency and allow Nov. voters to approve rent control.
