Ward IV Representative – Ian O’Hara – Report

APRIL 2023

Hello, Neighbors…

I want to thank everyone who voted in this past election; I want to thank the 1,293 people who voted for me, as well as the 1,049 who did not.

I have now attended 3 council meetings, 1 Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council Meeting, I have met twice with the city attorney, I have met multiple times with Lesley and Theresa, I have met just one time with Justin Shea & I have had 7 meetings with Jim O’Reilly, our city manager. I have attended the Police Employee Appreciation Day, the Volunteer Appreciation Day, 2 ribbon cuttings, 1 Lions Club Breakfast, 1 office hour (which is Fridays 2-4) & met with 23 constituents in person. I have put in place a no-parking sign and implemented a traffic study going on Tangerine. I attended a meet and greet for the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council in Clearwater.

I have responded to 34 personal emails (which will be soon forwarded to my city email account), I have responded to 223 emails (69 of which are from one individual).

So, I know this is not city business, but I would like to thank all of the city officials and all of our neighbors for being so wonderfully, kind to my wife and I during this trying time. 

If you have any questions or quandaries, or just want to have a conversation, you can reach me at:
