WHAT IS PHCSA? It’s an acronym for the Palm Harbor Community Services Agency, Inc. Since Palm Harbor isn’t incorporated and doesn’t have a local government, the taxpayers decided back in 1985 to tax themselves. They created the Palm Harbor Community Services District to provide leisure services to the community. Governed by a volunt special taxing district of Pinellas County.

PHCSA manages CSA Palm Harbor, the Palm Harbor Library, East Lake Community Library, and the East Lak
