VIDEO: Artist Clarence Measelle presents art to City and other presentations from Lake Worth Commission Meeting (6/2/15)


Lake Worth High School Class of 1965 Artist Clarence Measelle presented donated historical art work to the City of the former H.C. Pence 5 and 10 Store that was downtown. He shares a little bit of Lake Worth history and reminds us that Lake Worth was more of a full service city back in the day. He recalls former fixtures and institutions downtown and around the city. We also learned more about the Lake Worth Scottish Rite Masonic Center and their Flag Day celebration on June 14th. Mark Parrilla also provided a presentation for the Library Board. Vice Mayor Maxwell also presents and highlights the large number of REAP grant recipients in the city from this year's County program.

Editor's Note: Two things I'd like to point out about the videos from last night. I was able to find a zoom mic that attaches to the camera itself and disables the one that is built into it. The audio quality is noticeably clearer and without as much echo than with the standard mic. In doing so, I also changed some of the camera settings so that the video results in a "warmer" color picture and helps make up for the fluorescent lighting in the Commission Chambers. It is my understanding that the video went off-line from the city's Internet feed last night, so this is a good place to see what happened at the meeting. Enjoy!
