A Sobering Crack-down in West Palm Beach

Comment Up
Read about the raid...

Vice Mayor Scott Maxwell stated on Tuesday that he wanted tougher regulations for Sober houses...wants to know who the operators are and if they are providing the services intended.  That is a "must" for our neighborhoods.

In the above article, FBI investigators and West Palm Beach police are on the scene at Green Terrace Condominiums on Georgia Avenue in West Palm Beach regarding a company that operates Sober Housing there.

Sadly, Maxwell could care less. We have a valid short term rental law that if enforced uniformly could be a powerful tool against sober houses. Sadly, Maxwell and the rest of the commission will not enforce the law b/c of their friends who are running illegal short term vacation rentals.

They don't mind suing the citizens but illegal vacation homes...political hypocrisy. They are scared to death of lawsuits from businesses or those grabbing our rights of way or even from the flim-flam man and just roll-over instead.

Why is it that rich people here have such control? Like the other rich guy who is on a city board here yet owns uncared for and blighted property, but because he is in bed with city codes is allowed to keep is place dumpy forever, bringing our city and neighborhood down. The power of some here and the elected over look it all. So much corruption, how can you respect any of them?

That statement applies to our Commission as well!Who are the ones pulling the strings that make these Commissioners do what they do? Maxwell walking door to door. Torcivia (an officer of the court) blatantly accusing judges of deliberately breaking Sunshine laws What is motivating these people ???

ANSWER? This mayor and commission are the "operators." You simply can't have a city run by bullies. You can't have city boards run by bullies. Unfortunately, most who live here have no idea. The bullies run the city with loud mouths in the front and back rows at commission meetings. The mayor will not shut them up. Why? Well you know why.

Lynn, you are the biggest bully in all of Florida. You use you're blog to rip people to pieces and to oppose everything good for the City. You are evil and have no soul. You live in a 750 sq. foot cement box, and that is we're you belong.

From your comment, anonymous at 10:38, people can see who the real bully is.
This is politics and put on our big panties, mayor.

Obviously this bond was not "everything good" for the city. Half the people turned it down.

Oh, and it's 895 feet.Let's get it right if you can with your personal bully attacks.
