Commissioner Norman Requests $1 Million for Campaign Contributors' Project

District 5 Hillsborough County Commissioner, Jim Norman (see photo), convinced fellow commissioners Mark Sharpe, Ken Hagan, and Tom Scott to set aside $1 million for sound abatement walls to keep noise from the Suncoast Parkway out of the expensive Cheval West neighborhood.

Cheval residents have contributed more than $5,000 to his campaign - 3% of his total contributions. Cheval subdivision developers Jim and Kathy Stackpoole each contributed the maximum to his campaign.
