Town Council to vote on proposed 3.2564 millage rate July 7; recent committee meetings await minutes
Loxahatchee Groves residents will see several consequential items on the July 7 Town Council agenda, including a proposed property tax millage rate, a grant-writing contract, and code enforcement lien foreclosures on four properties. Meanwhile, four meetings held over the past two weeks remain without published minutes, so no outcomes from those sessions are available.
July 7 Town Council: Millage Rate, RV Rules, and Lien Foreclosures
The Town Council Regular Meeting on July 7, 2026 carries the heaviest agenda of the period. Council members are scheduled to vote on Proposed Resolution No. 2026-62, which would adopt an operating millage rate of 3.2564 for fiscal year 2026/2027. A solid waste assessment rate is also on the regular agenda for consideration.
Council will also vote on Proposed Resolution No. 2026-61, a grant-writing contract with Langton Associates not to exceed $10,000.
Four code enforcement lien foreclosure resolutions — Proposed Resolutions 2026-55 through 2026-59 — are scheduled for action, covering properties at 16169 Southern Blvd, 1300 D Road, 3138 A Road, and 1032 Hyde Park Road.
Two ordinances are up for second-reading public hearings:
- **Proposed Ordinance No. 2026-01** — would repeal and reenact Article 92 on Recreational Vehicles.
- **Proposed Ordinance No. 2026-02** — would require site plan approval for residential development over 20 acres.
The council is also scheduled to discuss a road closure on Loxahatchee Avenue and the Town Attorney's contract. No vote tallies or outcomes are available because the meeting has not yet occurred.
Special Magistrate Hearing (June 24)
The Special Magistrate was scheduled to hear three code enforcement cases on June 24, 2026:
- **Case 1:** Steven Manos — alleged lack of a Business Tax Receipt at 4332 145th Ave N.
- **Case 2:** George and Atinka Berlovan Rev Trust — multiple alleged violations including outdoor storage, permits, prohibited uses, and manure at 14796 North Rd.
- **Case 3:** Selvi T Selvan and Sen T Selvan — alleged tree and vegetation removal without mitigation at 3056 D Rd.
