Mayor Steven Meiner and Commissioners Tanya K. Bhatt, Joseph Magazine, Alex Fernandez and David Suarez are expected at the SoBe West Neighborhood Association’s community meeting on Monday, Nov. 16, to discuss how the city is handling residents’ concerns about development proposals filed under the state’s Live Local Act, according to the association’s newsletter, sent Monday. Public Works Director John Norris is also expected. The details come from the association’s announcement, which Red Sidewalks has not independently verified.

The meeting runs from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Mirador, 1200 West Ave. A board member will also lead a discussion of recent king tides, seawalls and the West Avenue Phase II project, the newsletter says.

The meeting comes days after the city postponed its Nov. 12 special commission meeting on the Live Local Act, with no new date announced.

The newsletter also says a new raised crosswalk was recently installed on West Avenue at 650 West Ave., at the entrance to Canopy Park. The association credited Commissioner Magazine and city staff and said the crossing should slow traffic on West Avenue.
