City land policy changes will increase development clarity

St. Petersburg’s mayoral administration hopes to provide some long-sought-after clarity for developers seeking to acquire city-owned parcels, particularly after a failed bid to build a Moffit Cancer Center.

Administrators shared the policy change with city council members during an Oct. 12 committee meeting. They want to mandate that developers designate at least 30% of all housing as “affordable” units at or below 80% of the area median income (AMI) or “workforce” units at or below 120%.

The show’s rapid-fire comic dialogue is an about-face for the New York-bred Symons, whose well-received debut book Lies in Bone (2021) was a dark and convoluted murder mystery about seriously disturbed people.
