Always great to have @EdMontanari and @DFiggsSanders with us as we celebrate another @HabitatPWP home completion in @StPeteFL – at Largo, FL

Disappointed to hear mayoral candidate Blackmon oppose addtl housing affordability in his district. Given our geography, we can't afford to exclude any available land from the housing conversation. And we need to ensure our infrastructure needs are met on the Science Center site.

In early June, Pinellas County's Weekly Case Positivity for COVID-19 was 2.3%.
We're at 19.2% this week.
As a reminder, local governments have been preempted from taking most any action to mitigate.
Get vaccinated. We're at 55% in Pinellas. We can do better. And 😷 indoors!

2020 has been such a hard year for Black people. So much collective mourning with no breaks. Not even one thing after another, more like everything at the same time.
When things are safer our next large gathering is going to be so emotional.

Chadwick Boseman out here literally dying in front of us is a HUGE reminder that we never know what battles people are fighting. You don't know what's killing a person. Be kind. Offer grace. Be gentle. Love freely.

I voted for Rene Flowers for Pinellas County Commission, District 7, because I want St. Petersburg and Pinellas County to continue to enjoy a positive, working relationship. It was a relationship that needed rebuilding 6.5 years ago. We can't go back to the days of dysfunction.

Disappointed to see the paper's recommendation of Karl Nurse for school board. No matter your opinion of Karl, it would be a tragedy to have an all-white school board in a county and city as diverse as ours. Representation matters more than ever. Our students deserve better.

A common question: are coronavirus cases going up because we're testing so many more people?
A: Certainly not in Florida, where testing slowed down 3% while new cases grew 88% over the last week.
