Message to City Officials from Robert Waples, President of ROLOH


Dear Roloh Neighbors and Friends, Mayor Clemens, Vice-Mayor Golden, Commissioner Lowe, Commissioner Jennings, Commissioner Mulvehill, City Manager Stanton and Staff,
What do you say after a four year long and drawn out issue such as 826 Sunset Drive other than Thank You. So many people have given so much of thier time, money and effort to challenge this issue from day one and it has been a very long road......today we have reached the right decission and 826 Sunset is no longer high density or zoned multi-family.
We all need to thank the many citizens of Lake Osborne Heights and all of Lake Worth for the support and dedication to righting this wrong and with out so many people supporting and volunteering, this would never have been corrected.
We need to Thank this Commission for having the courage to reach this decision and to correct that which was not meant to be. This action of recinding the past ordinances is just another sign of Lake Worth coming to a wonderful turning point and becoming a city for its citizens and business owners, and now a chance to grow responsibly.
There are many more decisions that have to be made down the road and many of them will be just as tough if not tougher. However, the people through this commission have a voice, and we hope that in the future that we hold this time of change and future prosperity to be a guide to continue to make Lake Worth the BEST place to live, work and thrive in Palm Beach County.
Just a reminder to eveyone, it takes everyone's support to make a city a better place to live and by supporting your city and staff, local businesses with your patronage and even giving of your time for needed hours of volunteerism to the many city projects and boards we can all make a difference.
One word to future business owners.....Lake Worth IS open for business and this exciting time of new growth and vision for the city is the right time to look at Lake Worth for what it will become in the near future and how it will be a place for new and old businesses alike to grow.
Congratulations to everyone on a big victory today and remember....this city is Lake Worth
