A proposito di questo titolo
Explore the conflict at the heart of Boca Raton as a billion-dollar downtown redevelopment plan collides with a daily emergency: residents in neighborhoods like Hidden Valley can't reliably call 911. While city leaders focus on a "downtown campus opportunity", including new shops, offices, and housing, some residents are left with one bar of cell service.
Tune in to understand how a city's vision for a modern, sleek future, as outlined in Mayor Scott Singer’s newsletter, is being challenged by community groups who argue that basic public services like reliable emergency communication should be the top priority. This episode dives into the debate over where the city's resources and political capital should be spent: on a massive development project promising financial benefits, or on ensuring the safety of its citizens.
Discover why some residents believe that a "billion-dollar downtown redevelopment scheme" is a "nightmare" if it comes at the expense of public safety and essential infrastructure. The podcast poses a critical question: what good is an "opportunity" if it doesn't guarantee a safe life for its citizens?
