Resolution defining antisemitism sparks discourse

Like the state and nation, St. Petersburg continues to see a rise in antisemitic incidents; a local synagogue received a bomb threat during its Sept. 10 service.

City Councilmember Gina Driscoll introduced a resolution to formally establish a definition of antisemitism Sept. 14, on the eve of Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year). The council approved the measure to help identify, measure, monitor and combat antisemitism - after Councilmember John Muhammad abruptly left the dais.

City officials look to curb ‘van life’

St. Petersburg’s popularity has soared alongside the cost of living, and many people have discovered a way to take advantage of local amenities without footing the associated bills.

Dozens of modified vans and buses now sit along neighborhood streets and waterfront parks downtown. A night at the Vinoy is over $400; parking on the adjacent right of ways is free.
