Boca Raton’s new city council will have its first regular meeting today, and we’ve got the inside scoop on what’s on the agenda. From a downtown civic engagement task force to community input on Memorial Park, here’s what you need to know. Read more at BocaVibe.com.

  • Creation of a “downtown civic engagement task force”
  • Mayor Andy Thomson requested the creation of a Downtown Civic Engagement Task Force that would facilitate a structured, community-driven process for gathering input regarding the future of Memorial Park and the surrounding public spaces.

The idea behind the task force is to proceed with a downtown campus plan that begins with community input, as opposed to the Terra/Frisbie proposal that was criticized for moving quickly and with poor communication from the city. Thomson would serve as chair of the nine-person task force, all appointed by the city council.
