Of all the cities in Palm Beach County the little City of Lake Worth is one of the special six in a paper of record

The other special cities are Jupiter, Wellington, Boynton Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, and West Palm Beach:

In the Post's new "In Your Community" section the same cities will be featured over and over again, each and every week. How long before all the other cities rise up and demand equal time?

The Palm Beach Post has started an "In Your Community" segment that appears on page B3, Local section, Monday–Saturday. The first one appeared on Tuesday, March 29th with the town of Jupiter. In the batting lineup Lake Worth will be in this Monday's (tomorrow) edition, again. If you've followed the Post's coverage of Lake Worth you can see how there would be a certain level of trepidation. Do you remember the protest about trash pickup at that trailer park?

Fortunately our other paper of record, The Lake Worth Herald, came to the rescue on that one. Read about that using this link.

Here are the two articles that will likely be in the Post tomorrow: About Governor Scott's veto of money for the Park of Commerce, here is an excerpt:

     "As a cash poor city, Bornstein said Lake Worth needs help. From 2002 to 2012, the city lost 1,617 jobs, one of the highest in the county.
     Despite two setbacks the city intends to apply for the money again.
     'We want to understand what was deficient, if anything, or if there was a misunderstanding,' [City Manager Michael] Bornstein said. 'We’re not going to give up and walk away. I’ll just get a bigger fist to bang on the door.' "

The other one is a rehashed article with updates on union negotiations. No mention of "secret meetings" or baked ziti either. Since we have the undivided attention of the Post every Monday, here's one of my personal favorites that has never made it into the paper (or any other news organization, for that matter):
