Last night, the West Palm Beach City Commission, that has never seen a development project it didn't like, voted to double the density on North Flagler Drive by voting for the Rybovich Village project. The vote was 4/1 with Sylvia Moffett dissenting. She called the density “inappropriate.” “We’ve got several high-rises on North Flagler that haven’t done anything much for Broadway. If they stuck to the comp plan and did 32 (units) to the acre, they’d still get a pretty good return.”

Commission President
Prior to her election as commissioner, Sylvia played an active role in her neighborhood serving as secretary and as president of the Old Northwood Steering Committee, editing the Old Northwood Newsletter, and representing Old Northwood to the North End Coalition of Neighborhoods.
At least Moffett stood by her neighborhood and her District. Certainly different than what we get in LW with Scott MAxwell and his plot against an entgire section of his district.
ReplyDeleteAmen!
ReplyDeleteDevelopers ALWAYS pull that trick--they can't make money on smaller density--they need to go bigger and higher. The problem is, most elected officials go with the developer tale of blues and sock it to the people instead.
