3 issues in general with high priority
Alpha 250 Solid Waste Site Potential Sale
The city is being asked to extend, again, the time allowed to sell the Alpha 250 property under a long-running litigation settlement. The fourth amendment keeps the settlement terms on track.
Proposed Fire Assessment and Utility Rate Increases
Annual fire assessment rates and solid waste collection fees are proposed to increase to cover rising costs and the reintroduction of weekly curbside recycling. Stormwater and water/wastewater fees are also adjusting according to CPI and contractual pass-throughs.
Highway Expansion Lawsuit
Coconut Creek is suing the state to block plans for expanding the Florida Turnpike and Sawgrass Expressway right through town. This legal showdown could seriously shake up local traffic patterns, crank up neighborhood noise, and mess with your daily commute.
