Editorial: Approve much-needed road repair bond in Lake Worth

Click title for the REAL, full-version of the Palm Beach Post editorial article which supported the bond ballot issue in Lake Worth.

Remember, dear readers, recently the 'No' PAC (CAUT) sent out a mailer trying to mislead voters into thinking the Palm Beach Post had not endorsed the City's LW2020 Bond Vote tomorrow. Not true. The Palm Beach Post enthusiastically endorsed the City LW2020. The "No's" cherry-picked two pieces from the editorial. This tactic is disinformation and was used to deceive the voters of Lake Worth. Period.

The CAUT PAC, or the 'No's constantly harass the City for not providing enough information. As I've demonstrated for many months now with posts, videos, and updates, the city did its fair share of getting the word out and answering questions. The "No's", which I have written about extensively, did actually avoid transparency and openness by filing their PAC with the County going around the Lake Worth City Clerk. By doing so they operated in secrecy for many weeks. They did not tell the City of their intentions, or inform the public, as they raised and spent money in secret.

That said, your choice tomorrow is a crucial choice and an important one for the future of Lake Worth. The LW2020 Plan needs you to choose "For Bonds" on the ballot. Tomorrow is the culmination of an idea that started three years ago.

I am voting For Bonds tomorrow. I strongly encourage you to listen to my archived radio show with Mayor Pam Triolo and City Manager Michael Bornstein. You can also watch my YouTube videos of the City LW2020 presentations.

Sincerely,
Wes Blackman
