This time, the Lake Worth City Commission had no reservations on what was the right vote.--
What about a person in our city trying to get zoning changes to have a small hotel with a bar and music in a residential neighborhood on South Palmway? Residents spoke out against it...their message was heard.
No way, said our commission.
The owner of the property was already approved for a Bed & Breakfast by Planning and Zoning but she wanted to go a big step forward with a hotel. Commissioner Hardy asked, “What if the hotel changes hands and someone is less scrupulous? There’s nothing to keep that from occurring. I don’t have confidence that if things got out of hand, we’d be able to reel it back in. I’m all for doing progressive things, but the payoff has to be huge.”
This owner already proved that her original request of a B&B just wasn't good enough.

I don't like this Commission but I have to give them credit. Our homeowners are already under assault from air BNB and sober homes. If someone wanted to live next door to a hotel they would have moved to federal or Dixie. Buying a home is a huge investment. Thanks to this Commission for helping to protect our existing home owners.
Exactly.
and it is election time
