TREASURE ISLAND, Fla. — The City of Treasure Island received a ceremonial check for $1.5 million from Florida Republican State Rep. Linda Chaney (D-61) on Tuesday.
At the City Commission meeting, leaders were presented with the check, which was secured through the state legislative appropriations process. The check will help Treasure Island build a new public safety building.
Treasure Island Fire Rescue presented Rep. Chaney with a plaque to thank her for her advocacy and support of Treasure Island's first responders.
There are some truly inspiring people who call the Tampa Bay area home. People who overcome odds that others could not even imagine. Tampa Bay 28 anchor Lauren St. Germain met a woman who is doing just that, as she competes at an international level after 2 life-saving lung transplants.
