A short video appeared on Channel 10 News the other day about South Tampa's opposition to the Gandy Overpass project. I have newspaper clippings as far back as 2002 that show Ellen Nimon and many other residents' efforts to defeat the Transit Authority's plan to build the overpass at our front door. For almost a decade, we have fought to maintain our property values here in the park.
By our not taking an official stand against the project, the Transit Authority perceived it, and loudly advertised that we were in support of it.
A resident, John Rechsteiner nailed it on the head when he was interviewed and said that this project does NOT have the support of this community. Right on, John!
See for yourself. There is a video in the upper right corner of the link below.
