General Obligation Bond Referendum Discussion with Claude Tankersley

Wednesday, May 27, 2026 (3:30 PM - 5:00 PM) (EDT)

Description

As the St. Petersburg City Council prepares to vote on ballot language this June for a proposed $600 million General Obligation Bond referendum focused on resiliency, flooding mitigation, and critical infrastructure upgrades, now is the time for the business community to learn more about what this proposal could mean for the future of our city. The initiative could represent one of the largest infrastructure investments in St. Petersburg’s history, with projects aimed at hardening public facilities, addressing stormwater challenges, and improving long-term resiliency efforts. 


Join the St. Petersburg Area Chamber of Commerce for an exclusive members-only conversation with Claude Tankersley to better understand the proposal, its potential impacts, and the considerations facing residents and businesses alike. Following the City Council’s vote on the ballot language, city officials will have limited ability to publicly educate the community on the referendum, making this a unique opportunity for Chamber members to engage directly, ask questions, and help shape the Chamber’s perspective on behalf of the local business community before voters head to the polls.
