In a packed room filled with 700 community members at the Old West Florida Enrichment Center, City of Tallahassee and Leon County commissioners were mostly united on questions about affordable housing – until Blueprint dollars were involved.
The seats were packed for Tuesday night’s event as attendees were reminded of the usual rules that go with the annual Nehemiah Action Meeting: If city and county leaders answered ‘no,’ they were to be met with silence, and if they answered ‘yes,’ the room would erupt in applause and cheers.
