City Council to vote on adding $14M to budget for new St. Pete Pier

St. Pete leaders will vote on whether or not they plan to add another $14 million to the budget for the new St. Pete Pier on Thursday. This is the money Pinellas County had for a canceled transportation project. The money would be used for a bigger, better splash pad for the kids with twice as many jets, a kayak launch at Spa Beach, a water recreation zone and a floating platform near the education center.
