Boynton Beach officials are collecting resident emails to gauge public opinion on a controversial local shooting range. If you live near the facility or care about neighborhood noise and safety, your voice is currently up for grabs.
Mall Redevelopment
Everyone's waiting to see what happens to the Boynton Beach Mall, and since it's right in town, the city council has to approve whatever gets built next. This is a huge chance to shape a major piece of our local landscape.
CRA Meeting Schedule Consolidation

Police Equipment
Boynton Beach just greenlit a $90,000 drone purchase from Axon for the police department, pushing through despite some money worries. That means local cops are about to get some serious new aerial tech to patrol the city.
Developer Incentives
Boynton Beach is handing out a cool $7 million in financial incentives to fast-track a new real estate project by Affiliated Development. It's a huge cash push aimed at speeding up local growth, but it definitely raises questions about where our tax dollars are going.
