Congratulations to newly elected Naya Young, Councilwoman for District 5 of the Tampa City Council!

We wish you the very best as you begin your term. We hope you will consider every neighborhood across the City of Tampa, not just those within your district, in your votes and decisions.

Best of luck to you — and to the new city council — as you get started.

— Your neighbors in Macfarlane Park and West Tampa

🎃 Macfarlane Park & West Tampa Halloween Safety Reminder! 👻

As evening falls and the costumes come out, our neighborhood streets will be filled with trick-or-treaters — little ghosts, goblins, superheroes, and princesses excited to collect their candy! 🍬🍭

🚗 Please slow down — drive well below the speed limit on all our neighborhood streets.
🚫 Do not drink and drive.
👀 Stay extra alert for children crossing streets or running between houses.

Let’s keep Macfarlane Park, West Tampa, and all surrounding neighborhoods safe tonight so everyone can enjoy the fun and make happy memories.

Without volunteers who care, nothing is possible.
Be sure to thank these volunteers and everyone who showed up the next time you see them. And don’t forget to thank the volunteers in your own community who work hard every day to build connection and pride among their residents.

Big thanks to Hillsborough County Property Appraiser, Bob Henriquez CFA for headlining our neighborhood meeting tonight!

We always walk away feeling like a genius, knowing a thing or two more about the property appraiser's office.

Thanks for breaking down everything from TRIM notices to property valuations and assessments. Great to see familiar faces and new ones!

Leroy Street wins the prize for most neighbors showing up! Hillsborough County Property Appraiser, Bob Henriquez CFA

Illegal dumping is... illegal. And ugly. And harmful to our environment. 🙅 🚫 🚯

📲 If you see it, report it ASAP directly to our team at tampaconnect.com, our one-stop-shop customer service center.

Boy does our neighborhood need to see this message 😜. Please be sure you or your lawn service are not doing this.

Reminder: Whether we're in false fall or real fall right now, blowing leaves & debris into the street is ALWAYS illegal. 🍃🍁 Help us keep our storm drain system clear and free flowing!
