Just in case you missed this over the weekend:

The blog post, “Sober Home Conversation” with Commissioners Shanon Materio and Andy Amoroso at the Parrot Cove meeting on April 17th.


There are a total of three videos (see below) from this meeting. The president of the Parrot Cove Neighborhood Assoc., Mr. ​Anthony Marotta, invited Lake Worth City Commissioner Andy Amoroso, member of the Sober Home Task Force, and West Palm Beach City Commissioner Shanon Materio, member of the Proviso Sober Home Task Force, to address this crucial topic.

Both of these task forces were created by State Attorney Dave Aronberg to address what many have come to see is a serious crisis. Both Commissioner Materio and Commissioner Amoroso updated those in attendance on recent efforts at the local, County, State and Federal levels and what other plans are being worked on to tackle this problem affecting so many local communities, especially our own.

According to Mr. Marotta, Parrot Cove* will have Boynton Beach City Commissioner Joe Casello scheduled for next month’s meeting to discuss some of the initiatives the City of Boynton Beach is pursuing. Stay tuned for more about that.

Here is the second video and below are the links to the first and third videos from that meeting last Monday (April 17th):
