Explainers and recaps
- Sep 24
The Shoppes of Wilton Manors went to its final vote on Tuesday
The biggest land-use decision the city has made in over a decade was on second reading. Here is exactly what was in front of the Commission — and why we are not yet telling you how it went.

Thursday is your last chance to say anything about your city tax rate
The final FY2027 budget hearing is Thursday at 6:30 p.m. The Commission set the operating millage at 5.9835 — below what the City Manager recommended. Here is what that means and how to speak.
Know what the city decided
The morning after every Commission meeting, we send one email saying what they decided. That is the whole newsletter.
Sign-ups open shortly. Email us and we will add you to the first send.
Free. Roughly twice a month, more in the run-up to an election. One click to unsubscribe, and we never sell, share or rent the list — not to a campaign, not to a business, not to anyone.
How to be heard
In person. Show up at the Commission Chambers, 2020 Wilton Drive. Public comment is three minutes per speaker on any issue. You do not need to sign up in advance and you do not need to cite ordinance numbers — saying what you are there about is enough.
In writing. Email the Commission before the meeting. Comments received by 6 p.m. are delivered to commissioners ahead of the meeting and entered into the public record. Include your name and address. The address is on the city's agendas and public comment page.
From home. Meetings stream live and the video posts on demand afterward, from the same page.
Reading an agenda yourself
Two things are worth knowing. First reading means an ordinance has to come back for a second vote before it takes effect — there is still time. Second reading is the final vote. And the consent agenda is a block of items that pass together without discussion unless a commissioner pulls one out, which is where genuinely consequential things occasionally sit.
