Business Advisory Board backs year-round “Sunset on the Avenue” events
Summary
The Lake Worth Beach Business Advisory Board voted to run the Sunset on the Avenue event every month next year and agreed to request city funding to support the series. Board members also questioned the usefulness of Cultural Plaza–centered events and discussed logistics for expanding the program.
At its June 18, 2026 meeting, the Lake Worth Beach Business Advisory Board voted to run the Sunset on the Avenue festival monthly for all 12 months next year and agreed to seek city funding to support the program. The minutes record that “all members present voted for doing all 12 months,” though no mover or seconder is listed in the record.
Board members said they want a larger, sustained series that better supports restaurants and retailers. The discussion included concerns that events centered at the Cultural Plaza have not brought sufficient foot traffic to nearby businesses, and members debated how many months to run before settling on a year-round cadence. The board recorded the request for funding and left next steps to staff follow-up, without a specified funding amount or implementation timeline in the minutes.
Provenance: Transcript records discussion and vote in SEG 021–SEG 023.
