Commissioner Comments and Liaison Reports from last night's (2/17) meeting (cancelled meetings explained)


Important to point out that at the beginning of the this video, Vice Mayor Maxwell talks about the reasons that the next two City Commission meetings are cancelled. On March 3rd, the entire Commission is taking part in Palm Beach County Days in Tallahassee. This will allow them to interact with state legislators and talk about how the state can help us fund infrastructure projects here. The other meeting, on March 10th, is cancelled due to it being election day. Since it is a local municipal election, our own City Clerk Pam Lopez, is involved in the process. The statement was made partly in response to claims that this Commission meets more infrequently than others. It is clear that these situations are out of the Commission's control. The trip to Tallahassee will provide a public benefit to the city over the long term.
