Flap Ends Over Tent City | faniescorp

A proposed tent city in Tampa was rejected today in a split vote by Hillsborough County Commissioners.

The tent city would have housed up to 250 homeless adults for three months at a time. It was proposed by Catholic Charities, on land owned by the Diocese of St. Petersburg. Backers said it was needed to keep the homeless from sleeping in vacant lots around town.
