The Next General Membership Meeting
Tues July 16 at 6:30 2024
Jackson springs Recreation Center Large Meeting Room
8620 Jackson Springs Rd
We have invited candidates for local offices which will be in a position to influence many of the biggest issues we have identified and worked on over the last couple of years. This meeting is purposefully before the primary elections so we can meet and hear from all the candidates running for the office. We want to make sure that there is adequate time for all 7 of the candidates to speak in 90 minutes so we will provide a list of issues ahead of time that we want the candidates to address. If you have any important issues beyond the ones listed below please email martha@tnccivic.org and we will include as much as we can given the time constraints. The current issues we have identified from past meetings are listed below
An increasing number of problems with accessory dwellings, subdivided houses and disruptive air BNBs in our single-family home neighborhood. Homeless individuals living on the streets and public areas, Drugs, illegal dumping, illegal parking of commercial vehicles, traffic and a general change in the feeling of safety in our community which has always been a good safe neighborhood
There will be at least a half hour after the candidate’s forum to speak with them personally. The format will be similar to last year.

April General Membership Meeting Highlights
Our primary presentation was from Hillsborough County Neighborhood Relations. This is a great service provided by Hillsborough County. It provides a lot of opportunities for residents to meet the different departments and understand the processes they have so we can work most effectively with them. There are also opportunities for several grants to help improve the neighborhood. If you are curious this is the link https://hcfl.gov/departments/neighborhood-relations
