The typology standard is defined by executive direction; licensed care and clinical authority rests with authorized providers under partner agreements, and the typology advances after legal review and the fiscal model are complete.
The problem
For a Tampa resident without stable housing, a shower or a clean restroom can be the hardest thing in the world to find — and a small health problem can become a crisis because there is nowhere simple to get help. Dignity starts with the basics.
The plan
The city will define a Health & Hygiene Hub typology: what services the hub offers, how it fits its neighborhood, and what compatibility and licensing standards it must meet. This is one typology inside a single community-hub portfolio — not a scattered set of one-off projects.
No site launches until property, capital, an operator, and licensing are all validated, with an operating and licensing plan in place. Licensed services are delivered by authorized providers under partner agreements.
How you’ll know it’s working
- A published typology standard for health & hygiene hubs
- Sites launch only with validated operating and licensing plans
- Compatibility and licensing standards met at every operating site
- One portfolio, one strategy — no scattered one-off projects
From the Blueprint
- Underused facilities are retrofitted into micro-hubs equipped with showers, laundry, and telehealth booths, integrated with the transit network.
- Owners: Public Works, Community Development, and Health & Human Services; funded via the capital improvement budget, CDBG, and homelessness-service grants.
- Cost profile: high capital for retrofitting, moderate ongoing operational costs for staffing and supplies.
