South Seminole Heights Civic Association: June 2021 Bungalow Alert

Press release from the South Seminole Heights Civic Association:

June 9, 2021

June 2021 Bungalow Alert Hybrid Transportation Improvement Program Meeting

Wednesday June 9th at 6 p.m.

Hybrid Transportation Improvement Program Meeting The Hillsborough MPO public hearing
on the latest Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is June 9th from 6 to 9 p.m. Once again, FDOT is pressuring the MPO to approve interstate expansion.

We've had massive turnout for this hearing in the past, and although it's a pain to do it via computer, we still need all the anti-TBX comrades to join in and show the MPO that we want something other than more destructive interstate projects. Check out the
event flyer for more information.

We encourage OSH residents to support:

• No adding interstate lanes through OSH
• Funding the streetcar expansion and CSX lines
• No taking homes to expand the downtown interchange, which tears apart the heart of the city's urban core communities

Save the Date: Seminole Heights Garden Tour's

5th Anniversary is October 24th

Save the Date: Seminole Heights Garden Tour's Seminole Heights Garden Tour

by Cinda Hitchcock

Save the date -- October 24th, 2021 is the Seminole Heights Garden Tour Fifth Anniversary! Who knew when we came up with an idea to raise funds for the Friends of the Seminole Heights Library so we could continue to sponsor SummerFest (an all-day neighborhood children's event), that the tour would be so successful! The garden tour is now an established Seminole Heights community event and we would like to again thank all the gardeners who graciously volunteered their gardens in the past and our volunteers, the library staff, and the leadership team!

We are actively looking for gardens to feature on this year's tour, Sunday, October 24th, 2021. If you would like to have your garden featured on the tour, please contact us at:
