The swearing-in ceremony in Lake Worth last year and that dreadfully awful behavior by 'A Woman' in City Hall chambers

The swearing-in ceremony for Mayor Triolo, Vice Mayor Maxwell, and Commissioner Amoroso is today at 5:30. Hopefully, lessons were learned and there won't be a repeat of any uncivilized behavior like what occurred last year.

At last year's swearing-in for now-Commissioner Maier and his associate Commissioner McVoy, 'a woman' caused quite a scene in public. In the most memorably déclassé incident to ever occur at City Hall another woman wrote this about what happened:
     [Delores] Key* walked up to ['that woman'], according to Laurence McNamara, and asked her to move, telling her the front row was reserved for the candidate's family.
[and. . .]
     "She ['that woman'] pointed at her own skin and said, 'Are you calling me a n[----]r?' " Laurence remembers.
     Dolores Key, who is white, took offense.
     "She [Dolores Key] got all bent out of shape," said Laurence, and told ['that woman'] about seven times to apologize.
*The Economic Development Manager for the City of Lake Worth.
No apology or explanation was ever given for this incident.

Below is a video of former Commissioner Retha Lowe at the following City Commission meeting (3/24/2015) and she had a few thoughts about that 'that woman': Due to a camera equipment problem, I will not be able to video the event but when the City's video becomes available will let everyone know.

On a side note, 'that woman' who made that terribly insensitive comment in City Hall last year also happens to be a member of the 'red sign brigade' that's been trying to confuse and mislead the public for many years now about City's "BEACH!":
The Big Lie: The implication that there is (or ever was) any development plan on the Lake Worth beach is false. These signs are also illegal per City code.
Anyhow, hope to see a big turnout today at City Hall!
