Florida Issued Four Stop-Sale Orders After 11.67 Inches of Rain Hit West Palm Beach. They Won’t Cover the Water Already in Your Tank

Florida agriculture inspectors had issued four stop-sale orders and visited 125 fuel facilities in seven counties by Nov. 5, after 11.67 inches of rain fell on West Palm Beach on Nov. 1-2, according to CBS12's reporting on figures from the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. A stop-sale order shuts off a pump. It does nothing for the driver who filled up there the day before and is now holding a repair estimate, and water in gasoline is a hard thing to get anyone to pay for once it is in your tank.

Developer tells Wellington HOA to work with us ... or else | Exclusive

(This story has been updated to include additional information. ) GL Homes will build a luxury development of nearly 300 homes on the long-shuttered Polo West Golf Course in Wellington, with or without the cooperation of the Polo West Estates HOA. And the homebuilder needs to know by Nov. 24 whether the HOA will work with it in exchange for main entrance upgrades, including a new guardhouse. Otherwise, GL Homes will develop plans that will not be nearly as beneficial to the community. That was the main takeaway from a Zoom presentation the homebuilder aired for Polo West residents on Wednesday, Nov. 11. Residents were able to ask questions but the microphones of listeners were muted. The Palm Beach Post was able to view the discussion because it was provided a link to the presentation by an interested party. GL Homes has created a website to provide information on its Polo West project, https://polowestdevelopmentfacts.com/ The Zoom presentation has been posted to the website. During the presentation Wednesday, GL Homes executive Larry Portnoy explained the company was taking advantage of a new state law that makes it easier for developers to build on shuttered golf courses.

West Palm yanks lifeline for stalled ‘tent site’ after ‘shenanigans’

The future of a 25-story office and retail complex planned for the so-called “tent site” in downtown West Palm Beach was thrown into uncertainty when city leaders rescinded a vote to extend the deadline for completion. The mayor and city commissioners, sitting as the board of the city’s Community Redevelopment Agency, voted 5-1 on Nov. 9 to deny the developer’s request for a 17-month extension to complete the West Palm Point project at the corner of Okeechobee Boulevard and South Dixie Highway. The reversal reinstates the original deadline for the project to be completed next summer on the city-owned parcel — a timeline that the developer, a company owned by part-time Palm Beach billionaire Charles Cohen, has said it can’t meet. The turnabout came after city leaders accused Cohen’s company of a new round of “shenanigans” regarding the project’s financing. In September, city officials said, the company had indicated that a new investment group, Lendlease, would inject $350 million of financing into the project. But commissioners this week said they had learned that Lendlease would not be a direct partner in the project after all, prompting them to accuse Cohen’s company of misleading them. Commissioner Christy Fox, whose district includes
