Resident flags downtown sign‑posting and requests CRA hold meetings in district
Summary
Pam Paschke told the CRA she could not find required notice emails and said the yellow sign for a Camino Square hearing was placed in bushes on Camino Real rather than a plainly visible, prominent location; staff said the ordinance requires visibility from an abutting street and will review posting practices.
Pam Paschke addressed the Community Redevelopment Agency during the public‑request period to challenge how the city posted public‑hearing notices for the Camino Square property.
"The sign was placed in the bushes parallel to West Camino Real... No notice was posted on Southwest 3rd Avenue," Paschke said, arguing the placement did not meet the Boca Raton municipal code provision she cited (section 28.8[b]). She also asked that CRA meetings be held in the CRA district rather than at the current City Hall location so affected residents could more easily participate.
City staff (Mr. Koehler) responded that the ordinance requires visibility from an abutting street and does not define "prominent location," and said the Camino Real placement complies with that standard. He said development services would review the Palm Bay example Paschke offered and discuss internal posting practice refinements.
No formal action was taken at the meeting on the posting practice or meeting location; staff agreed to review the matter and report back. The municipal code section referenced in the remarks was cited as Boca Raton muni code 28.8(b).
