Lake Worth Power Outage

"Maryann (Polizzi) Furth has lived in Lake Worth for 42 years. In that time, she’s run for city commission, served as the South Palm Park Association president, become a widow and, of course, suffered a few power outages.

'I get so annoyed when it happens', she said. I’m always trying to get more information on what’s going on with the city and get so aggravated.'"

Read the article... where many of our residents were quoted as well as Mayor Pam Triolo and Commissioner Omari Hardy.

Maryann got married

Message of thanks from Maryann Polizzi

Maryann Polizzi

To all of you who supported me:
Here are some prophetic words by Tennyson that were used by Ted Kennedy when he conceded in the Presidential election to Jimmy Carter--

"I am a part of all that I have met
Though much is taken, much abides
That which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts
Strong in will
To Strive to seek, to find, and not to yield,"

For me, a few hours ago, this campaign came to an end.
For all those whose cares have been our concern, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die.

While the scope of Senator Kennedy's and my campaign were as different as you can get, those words resonate with me. I am part of all the people I met walking and campaigning in our great city, and they are part of me.

My will is very strong, and I will strive to help our city and it's citizens and to not yield in face of opposition to what I know to be in our best interest.

The work goes on, the cause endures, hope still lives and the dream shall never die.

I want to thank, Colby Mims, my campaign manager, Linda Brower, Asst Campaign manager, Karen Ryan, my Treasurer, Additionally, I want to thank Jeannette Alfaro, Jeniffer Mora, Allan, Paula, Lynn and John who did so much for me.

Huge thanks goes to those who donated to my campaign. Also, to Rustico, Mama Gizzi and Blue Front Barbecue for doing my meet and greets. I hope I have not left anyone out. Each and every dollar felt like a message saying "we believe in you."

I want to leave you with just a few final words:
I thank you
I will never forget you
I love you and I love our city
And I am not riding off into the sunset never to be heard from again.
To all of you, Love you.

Maryann Polizzi for District 4 Commissioner

Lake Worth's Open House

Redecorated with new vinyl flooring that looks like wood, the place was spiffy. The city built an entire area for planning and zoning that used to be unenclosed space. All of the city's building plans going back decades will be housed in this area. The cost for this renovation?  $250,000.

Took the Community Sustainability Department tour with Katie McGiveron and candidate for District 4,  Maryann Polizzi. The newly renovated utility building's tour guide was William Waters.

The last Candidate Forum? - We can only hope

Bryant Park had its 2nd candidate forum last night at The Beach Club. This was for the candidates in District 4. The President of the Bryant Park Neighborhood Association showed his bias and prejudice by announcing in the beginning that he was a good friend of one of the candidates [Herman Robinson] and that Ben Ellis was going to be the moderator for the forum.

It was sparsely attended and if it were not for others in the community there to listen and support their candidates, the meeting would have been a bust. Most people have already made up their minds as to whom they want as commissioner District 4.

One question was on illegals in our city and if the city should cooperate with ICE. This was of particular interest to me as our city is inundated with immigrants who have crossed the border illegally and now reside in our city. 
Ellie Whittey:  Yes.
Maryann Polizzi:  Yes. We can't go against a national law.
Herman Robinson:  We are a Sanctuary City. If the illegal hasn't committed a crime, he should be allowed to stay.

All in all, I thought all of the candidates did a good job. The one startling comment was from Herman Robinson who said he would like to see the Bamboo Room open again as a nightclub.  The Bamboo Room is now occupied by Common Ground Church that is in the process of buying the property. Don't we have enough nightclubs in this city? Don't we have enough boozers? Robinson is endorsed by two of the Trio, Scott Maxwell and Andy Amoroso, with Amoroso opposed to the church.

Candidate Maryann Polizzi Speaks to the People

Dear All,
As March 14th draws near the ugly part of politics has hit me. If you receive any material NOT FROM ME, or my campaign manager, Colby Mims, please do not believe that any part is true.

A little about me:
I love all people.
I don't have a cell in me that is racist. I love all races and ethnicities.
I don't talk about my opponents.
Nor, do I talk about anything else but my own goals for this city.
I am an open book. You ask me how I feel on certain issues and I will tell you.
I have put my heart and soul into this election. I love talking to people and solving problems for them.

With this being said, if any posts, blogs, personal pages say anything about me that DOESN'T come from me, PLEASE DON'T BELIEVE IT.

I have had so many people say things they overheard and luckily they came and asked me. Politics in Lake Worth isn't pretty. I will absolutely fight the fight with the utmost confidence and never back down. I won't tolerate people saying things that are not true. I have never spoken ill of any of my competitors, Herman and Ellie, nor have I spoken about anyone in District 2. I consider each a friend.

The nasty letter has me running with Omari and William. Not true and they are fabulous guys. Thank you to all, who took the time to read this. It's extremely important. Please share!! Thank you and have a wonderful night.
