I know there is a venue at the Roosevelt in Ybor that would like to host a community meeting. But really not sure if this group has gotten off the ground yet. I know Anita was thinking of hosting a meeting. She got into an election recently thou.

How often does this group meet? What initiatives is it planning? I am trying to find an active group in Tampa that is working to engage local people and implement projects that promote sustainability.
