No fix yet for drainage issue flooding part of Florida neighborhood
SUMMARY: Residents in Zephyr Hills are facing severe flooding in their yards and homes since Hurricane Debbie and subsequent rains. Neighbors believe the flooding is man-made, linked to a malfunctioning drainage ditch at a nearby mobile home park that is overflowing into their properties. Jamie Rens and Susan Tolman describe the impact on their homes, with water affecting utility rooms and Airbnb rentals. As neighbors await assistance, they report frustration over the lack of help, with the Southwest Florida Water Management District still determining responsible parties for repairs. The situation is concerning, particularly amid hurricane season.
“I’ve been on the phone, and just running around like a chicken with your head cut off trying to get somebody to please do something, because this can’t wait. I mean, this is my house.” said a homeowner in Zephyrhills, Florida

Residents near I-275 push back against proposed widening project
SUMMARY: Hillsboro County faces opposition from local residents concerning proposed I275 expansion aimed at alleviating traffic growth. Local resident Jason Marlo emphasizes that increasing traffic, noise, and pollution will negatively impact their quality of life and property values. Many community members argue against spending nearly half a billion dollars on a project that merely adds lanes when alternatives, like enhancing public transportation, could be more effective. Past efforts to expand I275 met similar resistance a decade ago, and frustrated residents are ready to organize against the current proposal, highlighting their desire to preserve their neighborhood’s integrity.
The project would add north and south bound lanes between the Hillsborough Avenue and Bearss Avenue exits.
