Click here for portion of CRA meeting minutes from May 27, 2008...

...when the Lake Worth CDC applied for a $300,000 grant or forgivable loan for the property at 6th Avenue South and E Street.  The property was given to the CDC in 2003 by the city - for free.  Some board members identified the apparent conflict with Commissioner Golden at the time.

This meeting happened before I was appointed to the CRA, but I did make public comment at the meeting. Remember, this was about two months after Commissioner Golden tried to take the CRA over for the first time.  Interestingly, the Chair said that the CDC could come back and re-apply, but would have to provide financials.  The CDC never re-applied.  Hmmm.
