Beaches face critical choices
By Sheila Mullane Estrada and Nick Johnson, Times Staff Writers
Published March 9, 2008
Tuesday, voters in communities up and down the beaches will select future leaders and decide issues ranging from how much they pay for fire protection services to whether the historic Snack Shack on Madeira Beach should be preserved. On St. Pete Beach, residents will choose a new mayor and two commissioners in a race that could tip the scales of two opposing views over development and how it should shape the city. Leaders throughout the state will be watching.
