Tax Vote and Budget Cuts
Boynton Beach voters are facing a major tax vote this November that could force the city into some serious budget cuts. If the measure doesn't pass, everyday local services are likely going to take a hit.
Budget Deficit
Boynton Beach is slashing top-level staff to plug a massive $4.9 million budget hole. This means you might see some changes to your everyday city services, so it's a good time to pay attention to how your tax dollars are being spent.
Acquisition of 444 W. Boynton Beach Boulevard Property Assemblage
The CRA reached a $7.25 million purchase agreement for a key 13-parcel commercial assemblage on Boynton Beach Boulevard to drive downtown redevelopment. Staff plans to address non-contiguous properties and tenant displacement concerns moving forward.
Tax Rebates
A developer is asking Boynton Beach for an extra $7 million in tax rebates, and city leaders have to figure out if giving away that much cash is actually a good deal for taxpayers.
