Tropical Ridge Neighborhood Association - September Meeting - Candidate Forum - 9/13

From Ryan Anderson:

The next TRNA meeting will be held on Monday, September 13th at 7pm in the Compass Community Center. Sneaky Labor Day has once again landed on the first Monday in September and delayed our meeting by one week. But what a meeting it will be!

First, we will have Wayne Bergman, Community Development Director, speaking to us about the code enforcement process. Wayne will be focusing on the new citation system that is currently being implemented and the process in which code violations are processed. Please remember that this is an opportunity for us to learn about the process, not complain about specific properties. However, Mr. Bergman will accept violation complaints in person if you would like to hand deliver one that evening.

In conjunction with Mr. Bergman, Chief Haubert with PBC Fire Rescue and Captain Silva with the PBSO will discuss the need to improve traffic flow and emergency vehicle access throughout our neighborhood. The existing parking regulations of the City will be reviewed and bottleneck areas will be identified.

Finally, our agenda ends with the TRNA CANDIDATE’S FORUM of 2010! We have invited this year’s candidates for District’s Two: Carla Blockson, Christopher McVoy, and District Four: Lisa Maxwell and Suzanne Mulvehill to talk with us about their upcoming campaigns and what each envision for our great City.
