“We have to put our best foot forward as a City. We have to close the gap between where we are and where we have the potential to be.”

—Quote. Mr. Omari Hardy, Jan. 30th, 2017 at the Lake Worth Playhouse debate.

Mr. Omari Hardy is now District 2 Commissioner Omari Hardy.

Please check back later on today for some information about Land Development Regulations and a thing called the “Future Land Use Map”. This work began seven years ago. And last night at the Lake Worth City Commission meeting the City took another step forward, a small step, but a momentous one. One could say there was much, “making of sausage” and some compromise too.

Commissioner Hardy inspired some people last night. And he angered some people too. And he taught some people about a thing called census tracts and poverty rates. Hardy will be called a lot of names but one thing is for sure. No one will ever call him a “gadfly” like the editor at The Palm Beach Post did of the previous commissioner in District 2.
