Tarpon Springs' Keffalas To Run For County Seat
Tim Keffalas recently revealed his plan to run for Pinellas County Commission, District 4 in a blog on Patch.
A true Tarponite, Tim Keffalas did not win a seat on the Tarpon Springs Board of Commissioners in the 2013 election, but according to his blog on Patch, he plans to run for a county seat.
In Keffalas' blog, he wrote:
"The reasons are many as to why I chose to run for this seat and in coming weeks I will define them."
Keffalas's added that his goal is to become "the voice" of District 4.
He wrote:
"In talking to residents in District 4, I am hearing that voters feel they have no real voice in the County. It is time for a change. We are at a critical time in our counties' future. We voted for term limits and the Commissioners who will not voluntarily acknowledge the term limits need to be sent a message of change."
