Bring Publix to Lake Worth

Click title for link to PB Post editorial. I'm not sure about their conclusion that the results of last Tuesday's election show that the electorate in Lake Worth is tired of dealing with "fringe" issues. Commissioner Golden's re-election was not about whether Publix should discontinue plastic bags - the endorsement editorial stated that she wouldn't hold up the project but still thought they could deal with it after-the-fact - which still would be unsettling for Publix. It would just be another variable they would have to consider. We'll see what the Commission does tonight and whether the act of being re-elected will allow Commissioner Golden more freedom in what she asks from Publix. That would send a terrible message.
