Below is a link to today’s City of Vero Council meeting. This was a very important meeting that I believe is a watershed moment in battle to sell Vero Electric.
The first 2 links are discussions by the attorneys for FPL and the City Transactional Attorneys. Those first 2 sections are pretty long and very technical. But if you are interested, it involves the FMPA which Lake Worth is also a founding member of. In my opinion, both attorneys are being very lawyerly and polite about the FMPA negotiations. But make no mistake, we are encountering resistance in those negotiations. Clearly, they have met FMPA opposition on Plan A and are working on a Plan B.
3rd link (short and concise), our State House Representative, Debbie Mayfield, gets up and shares her views on the FMPA and her experience with them in Tallahassee. Her comments are very direct.
The last (4th) link are comments by me where I discuss political options to dealing with our (and your) FMPA entitlement assets.
There is also some interesting comments by Charlie Wilson (2009 city councilman) reinforcing the need for political action.
Links 3 and 4 are short and probably more digestible to the public.
Each link has commercial for the first few seconds, then you can skip the ad and see the meeting.
