Some of our Volunteer boards have a lot of power. They are all political appointments. The City Commission uses their recommendations, particularly the P&Z and Historic Board's, as justification to vote the way that they do such as giving Hudson Holdings 20 feet more than the Charter Amendment allows. They decide what our city can and will look like. The Planning & Zoning Board of Lake Worth, with Greg Rice, as chair will meet on July 6 at City Hall to make recommendations on the following.
1. PZB 16-01400010 & PZB 16-00500010 A request for a Minor Site Plan and
Conditional Use Permit to allow for a +/- 6,501 square foot multi-use commercial
retail project with drive through facilities on a +/- 39,825 square foot (+/- .91 acre) site in the Downtown (DT) zoning district pursuant to Sections 23.2-29, 23.2-30, 23.2-31,

Yes Lynn, the P&Z Board will meet Wednesday night July 6. And yes, some city volunteer boards require certain educational and or professional backgrounds to give advice and recommendations to our elected leaders based on specialized experience and training. But please don’t confuse some of your readers, matters dealing with the historic Gulfstream Hotel are not heard and decided by members of the P&Z Board. Issues concerning codes, zoning and land use in historic districts are heard by members of the Historic Resources Preservation Board. Not the Planning & Zoning Board. All board meetings are publicly posted and open to all members of the community. You can check the city’s website for times and locations of the meetings. P&Z meets the first Wednesday of the month, 6PM in the commission chamber at City Hall. Public comments are always heard.
Yes, Greg. Thanks. Never said that the P&Z voted to approve the Gulfstream Hotel.
Just curious Lynn; are you for #1 and #2?
I would want to hear the details on both.
#1...not thrilled about it as I understand it is on the west side of Dixie.
#2...at least it's 4 stories but I would like to see a plan and a rendering.
