Palmetto Beach

...

Downtown, Channelside, Palmetto Beach.

It is the largest district.

It is the largest district in Hillsborough County.

You could almost [laughs] use another word perhaps, another adjective, uh, the islands were created just a few years after the 1921 hurricane, which, uh, put the little, uh, mud flats that were there totally underwater, uh, flooded downtown Tampa.

You, of course, had Hyde Park, Palmetto Beach.

Um, there was, there wa- you know, it's the last time a hurricane had hit here until the 2024 storms.

And so the vulnerability of the island is, is something that is, is, was very known, but we just escaped it for so long.
