On Wednesday, for the second week in a row, residents of St. Petersburg camped out on the steps of city hall. About 30 people, this time watched closely by Pinellas Sheriff's working outside their jurisdiction, pitched tents and risked arrest to demand the city give voters the choice to decide for themselves on the issue of rent control. The next day, dozens lined up to beg city leadership for one simple request: let the people decide.
