Legislative Actions
The Temple Terrace Mayor and City Council believe in the importance of Home Rule and the ability of this elected body to best understand the wants and needs of our City. At their March 16 meeting, the Council passed four resolutions that outline their stance on bills currently being considered by the state House and Senate that will affect our ability to self-govern. Residents are urged to familiarize themselves with the intent of this legislation and to make their views known to elected officials on a local and state level. City Council resolutions regarding these bills and links to the full texts of the proposed legislation as well as contact info for local representatives are available here.
