The Gas Plant: This Is About Process, Not Condos
In this episode, I respond to recent comments by Ken Welch regarding the future of the Historic Gas Plant site. This is not about condos—or any specific development. It’s about how a decision of this scale should be made. A planning-first approach means defining what the city wants, establishing how decisions will be made, and bringing in independent expertise—before selecting a developer. With several years before any immediate deadline, the question is simple: why rush? This is a major public asset. Getting the process right is how you get the outcome right.

The Process Is Moving—But Where Is It Going?
St. Petersburg has narrowed the future of the Historic Gas Plant site to four proposals. At first glance, that sounds like progress. But a closer look reveals something else: the proposals point in fundamentally different directions—raising a more important question. Has the city decided what it’s trying to do? In this episode, I walk through what the shortlisted proposals actually reveal, why the issue is not which proposal is best, and why defining a clear plan must come before selecting a developer. This isn’t about slowing progress. It’s about getting the process right—so the outcome reflects the community’s priorities. For more, visit homerunsmatter.com. [homerunsmatter.com]
How St. Petersburg Can Make Better Decisions
What good city council leadership should look like
What should we expect from City Council members as they make decisions that shape the future of St. Petersburg? In this episode, I talk about what good leadership looks like—not just in terms of positions or policies, but in how decisions are made. Drawing on my experience at Raymond James, I discuss why process, due diligence, and seeking the right information matter—and what voters should look for as we approach the August primary and November election. Because in the end, how decisions are made determines the future of the city.
