ROLOH Neighborhood Meeting - July

We had a great turn out :-) Vice Mayor JoAnn Golden went over the increasing millage rate, the water issue with the contracts (All still pending), the Reverse Osmosis Water System and talked about our current electrical contract with FMPA....They are hoping to move away from the Contract and be self managed which would be much more cost effective for the city. She also spoke about the Sunset Property (Smith)....

The city issued a publice Notice earlier this week that they were recinding the original ordinance that rezoned the Smith property to MF20 and it will go back to the county zoning of SF5....This of course has to be voted on during city commission meeting this coming Tuesday and we are asking all the neighbors to please attend and not only thank the commission for thier support but let them know that it is very important to us as a neighborhood to vote yes on this important item.

Crime stats are down for our area but with a word of caution that they are up for home burglaries all over town. PBSO thanked us for being a neighborhood that is looking out for each other and to encourage us to continue what we are doing. :-)

I made announcement that we need more volunteers to join the C.O.P. program to help patrol our neighborhood especially in the Summer Time. I was also appointed to the Lake Worth Planning and Zoning board and look forward to my duties there. Also I'm working on setting up a steering committee and future volunteers for a Community Garden project and if anyone was interested in any of the volunteer programs to let me know.

Larry introduced the new Pastor for LOPC, Omar, very nice guy and we look forward to his participation in our neighborhood.
