“That's a county tax. It's not levied on our citizens by Boca Raton. And we've already brought it up to the county that we're sick of paying for it. The county has already taken steps starting in June and July to eliminate that. They actually voted July 2026, five to two, to remove that. And they are scheduled for final approval on it on September 15th. However, it would not go into effect until October of 2027. But that is currently being addressed. So I just wanted to clarify that.”

“I have several constituents that have sent me emails that are concerned regarding feral cat colonies that are being fed that are mostly under trap, neuter and release programs. Also, just having a bird feeder in your yard. Seriously, is that going to be I mean, I understand just a regular size bird feeder. I mean, I'm sure if you're putting out a drum of bird food, that would be a little bit different, but they just want to verify that those will be excluded from this ordinance.”

“So we've identified high-injury corridors, intersections, whatnot. But a lot of those aren't BOCA. They belong to FDOT County, like you were saying. So are we going to use that money for those roads? Or are we going to ask for something written from the county, from the state, to provide additional funding to make those intersections safer? since this money is given to the city for our roads?”

“Okay. If we go ahead and adopt this, how are we going to gauge success? let's compare it to Fort Lauderdale because Fort Lauderdale is the only person that's the only city that's has some robust data they've it's been since what 2015 that's generally yes and the first year they claimed it was a success and now they're at their highest rates of serious accidents since it was implemented and I know that correlation isn't causation but When we're adopting this, I think we should have something that we look at this yearly. Is it making a difference? Because you can put anything you want up to try…”

“roundabouts, people don't even know how to use them. And if you look at 18th Street, they actually just stop. It actually almost creates more of a chance for a crash. So I'm concerned about that. So how will we measure success?”

“I mean, I think it would make sense if we identified the top 10 intersections that are city roads or, you know, and then focus on them and see, you know, like pilot program for those. But that's my opinion.”
