On March 24, Tampa councilmen motioned to have a city attorney investigate bringing more legal protection to council if they are sued under a public records law. The motion comes in the wake of former councilman John Dingfelder's resignation, with some in the community saying he was targeted by a developer's public records lawsuit, which forced him to leave council as part of the settlement terms.
