0 comments • Joseph Santini • June 26 2009 01:01PMThe Boca Raton City Council has approved red light cameras at 10 intersections as well as paid parking at the beaches. The parking in the Mizner Park garage and at the parks will remain free. This decision comes as the City tries to balance the budget and there are good arguments on both sides.
I think we could have done without the red light cameras as studies have shown after a year or so the revenue produced by these falls dramatically. Its nice to make motorist aware of when they need to stop but these cameras also cause many rear end collisions as more people will now be stopping short.

Business owners have alot at stake as do the residents of Boca Raton. These proposed actions are coming up because like most areas there is a need to balance the budget.

With the challenging economy everyones attention was on other things but with the real estate market showing signs of life many things are starting to get a new look. A new idea on the table is to bring the new public library to Mizner Park. It will be interesting to see how things progress.

0 comments • Joseph Santini • May 28 2009 08:00AMOur Governor has signed the new seat belt law into effect for all of Florida including Boca Raton which says the police department can pull a driver over just for not wearing a seat belt. In the past they could only give out tickets for this offense if they pulled you over for something else. The state will get funds from the federal government for signing this into law and it is sure to be a good revenue stream for the state as well.
The ticket can cost you from around $30 up to $120. We should all be in the habit of buckling up especially with the amount of accidents we see everyday on our roads. The new law takes effect July 1, 2009.

Often you will see many boats tied together just enjoying the tropical air passing the day away. Lake Boca overlooks the neighborhood of Por La Mar where you will see some of the nicest homes anywhere in the United States. On the other side of the lake you will see the world renowned Boca Resort. So if you want to stay out of the ocean be sure to check out Lake Boca Raton. Visit the link below to take a look now.

The establishments must also have cameras inside and out as well as security on staff after 10pm.
Anything that makes the town a better place and as a result real estate worth more is a good thing.
