SERVICE BEYOND CITY HALL

Prepared. Involved. Serving Tampa.

Public safety isn’t a talking point for Joseph Citro—it’s a responsibility.

Citro has completed citizen academies with the Tampa Police Department, Tampa Fire Rescue, Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office and Tampa International Airport Police Department, as well as Tampa’s Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training.

His involvement has given him firsthand experience with emergency preparedness and a greater understanding of the challenges facing Tampa’s police officers, firefighters and emergency responders.

During hurricanes and severe weather, that commitment becomes hands-on. Citro has worked alongside members of the community to help with storm preparation and response efforts, including filling sandbags and helping Tampa residents prepare before storms arrive.
