On Tuesday, the City of Tampa announced the creation of a Housing Information Line meant to serve residents navigating the housing crisis. The hotline—available via 813-307-5555 with operators on hand Monday-Friday 11 a.m.-7 p.m.—is meant to connect folks with someone who can point them to resources that might help them avoid eviction, deal with landlord or tenant issues, plus find rent and mortgage assistance. During the announcement at the city’s Emergency Operations Center, Tampa City Councilwoman Lynn Hurtak said the information line will not take the place of a potential tenant advocacy office that council moved closer to creating last week.
