MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR Friends, Hopefully, the front cover intrigued you to learn more about the family MICHAEL J. KALVORT, CPRE photographed and their story. This past June, Keeton Nimrod, a 14-year- old from Kansas battling non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, visited the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center with his family to fulfill his wish: to take care of sea turtles. Over a few days, he lived his dream as an Honorary Sea Turtle Technician: going on a Turtle Walk, helping to release sea turtle hatchlings, CITY COUNCIL OF BOCA RATON and providing care and examinations of the turtles in Gumbo Limbo Nature 201 West Palmetto Park Road, Boca Raton, FL 33432 Center’s Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Facility. Gumbo Limbo, the Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District, and the City of Boca Raton have a strong partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Florida. MAYOR Scott Singer Over this summer, Gumbo Limbo hosted three other “wishes.” During the wish experience—lending a helping hand to our technicians, feeding, and DEPUTY MAYOR Jeremy Rodgers assisting with animal care—a remarkable thing happens: The children see COUNCIL MEMBERS Monica Mayotte the other side of treatment. They become the doctor, not the patient. This provides perspective and impacts healing. I would like to thank the entire Andrea Levine O'Rourke Gumbo Limbo team, including volunteers, for their ongoing assistance in Andy Thomson providing amazing experiences for every person (and animal) who visits the nature center. CITY MANAGER Leif J. Ahnell, CPA, CGFO The other thing you might have noticed in the cover photo is the beautiful artwork at the entrance to the central tunnel located in Spanish River Park. This one-of-a-kind piece, masterfully painted by Tom D’Auria, is one of six unique installations of art. Each of the Spanish River Park beach tunnels was painted by a different local artist, and all the pieces enhance the GREATER BOCA RATON BEACH and PARK DISTRICT serenity of nature within the park and the beach. Kudos to the Mayor and 21618 Saint Andrews Boulevard, Boca Raton, FL 33433 City Council, the Art in Public Places Advisory Board, and the Development (561) 417-4599 Services Department for their vision to further enhance our community. I challenge you to take some time to visit Spanish River Park, take a walk, enjoy the artwork, and take a break and a breather from your hectic life. You’ll leave refreshed and will believe in the restorative power of nature! CHAIR Susan Vogelgesang Parks have the ability to nurture, heal, inspire, challenge, and capture your VICE-CHAIR Erin A. Wright imagination! Every day, the 800-plus team members in your Recreation Services Department work hard to provide amenities that enable our SECRETARY-TREASURER Craig F. Ehrnst citizens and visitors to enjoy the best things about Boca Raton: our green spaces, native preserves, and areas to reconnect with nature. COMMISSIONERS Robert K. Rollins, Jr. Steven M.

  • Real Estate Journal: Development Amid Constant Evolution in Boca Raton
    MENU Account FOR THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF [email protected] From the South Florida Business Journal: https://www.bizjournals.com/southflorida/news/2018/06/07/rej-boca-raton-spotlight.html Real Estate Journal Real Estate Journal: Development amid constant evolution in Boca Raton SUBSCRIBER CONTENT: Jun 7, 2018, 6:56am EDT Boca Raton’s development pattern mimics that of much of South Florida. Founded along the coast, once the east neared buildout, developers moved west. As land there now grows scarce, developers are looking back east for infill, rezoning and redevelopment to meet the city’s changing needs. No place better reveals this dynamic than the Park at Broken Sound. Created as a model corporate park in the 1970s, developers several years ago saw the Arvida Park of Commerce and its 700 acres as underutilized – and prime for redevelopment. They set in motion plans to rezone the park as a “planned mobility” destination COURTESY OF THE ALTMAN COMPANIES incorporating “live-work-play” design elements. Altis Boca Raton is among the offerings at the Park at Broken Sound. Today, luxury apartments, retail, dining and open space dot the former corporate park. “With today’s preference to live-work-play, the integration of housing in that development has been a smart addition,” said Joel Altman, chairman and CEO of The Altman Companies. Altman’s Altis apartments are joined by apartment communities Allure, Avalon, Cade Boca and The Lumin, with residences ranging from studios to three bedrooms. On one of the last large vacant parcels, Penn-Florida Companies is planning University Village. The mixed-use development near Spanish River Boulevard and Yamato Road will offer residential, dining, retail, hotel and “tech-savvy” office space targeting students from Florida Atlantic University and Lynn University, as well as baby boomers and seniors.

  • Staff Recommends Motion to Adopt: a Resolution to Approve the Draft 2010 Federal Functional Classification of Public Roadways Within Palm Beach County
    Agenda Item #: 3-C-6 PALM BEACH COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY -----------------------------=======-=-----======================== Meeting Date September 10, 2013 {X} Consent { } Regular { } Workshop { } Public Hearing Department: Submitted By: Engineering & Public Works Submitted For: County Engineer ---======-------==========---====================================== I. EXECUTIVE BRIEF Motion and Title: Staff recommends motion to adopt: a Resolution to approve the draft 2010 Federal Functional Classification of Public Roadways within Palm Beach County. SUMMARY: Federal legislation allows for State and local officials, in cooperation with each other and subject to approval of the Federal Highway Administration, to adjust the functional classifications of roadways. Roadway classifications are used to help determine the eligibility of a road for federal aid. Approval of this Resolution will allow this classification process to continue. The Palm Beach Metropolitan Planning Organization approved the same functional classification documents on July 18, 2013. Countywide (MRE) Background and Justification: In August 2012, the Florida Department of Transportation, District Four (FOOT D4) initiated the review of the Federal Highway Administration urban boundaries and functional classifications of roads. FOOT D4 is currently coordinating this effort with the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO's) and local governments located within and adjacent to the district's jurisdiction. This decennial effort carried out after the release of the Census data attempts to classify roadways according to the character of service they are intended to provide. Municipalities, the MPO and Palm Beach County have reviewed the proposed functional classifications within their jurisdiction and provided comments to FOOT D4 which have been incorporated into the document. Attachments: 1. Resolution 2. Draft 2010 Functional Classification Maps 3.
