Tampa's Table Setter

REVIEW SUMMARY
What. Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn's agenda for business
Issue. Growing the economy while shrinking government.
Impact. Mayor's plan calls for economic expansion in Tampa.

When Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn attended Navy flight school in Pensacola in the early 1980s, a doctor diagnosed him with degeneration of one of his corneas, leading to his 1982 discharge.

It turned out to be a misdiagnosis. Now, 29 years later, it's Buckhorn's vision for Tampa's future that earned the Democrat the support of a segment of Tampa's business community.
