Neighborhood Watch: ... Stolen vehicles: Coral Way - Palm Beach Isles - approx. 3am - 3:15am Thursday Morning on 3.19.2015

 
Please be advised.  A black BMW and a Denaili SUV were stolen last night on Coral Way in the Palm Beach Isles neighborhood. Someone came into the development last night around 3-3:30am in a stolen minivan which was abandoned in front of an owners house on Coral Way.  The BMW had tracking in it and was traced. Both vehicles were found off Haverhill and Belvedere in an apartment complex. Both cars were not damaged. They were possibly staged there before being driven down to Miami. Nobody has been apprehended or charged (yet), the investigation will be ongoing.
 
The Riviera Beach Police Team has been all over this... If you SEE something, SAY something. Please Report It ... DIAL: 911

Header - Opinion

 

From Jack F. Last week after reading about the "Blue" residential unit I voiced my opinion in an email to SICA. I could not attend the meeting, and was hoping for some information in this week's letter. No such luck. I also did not see my letter.

 

Reply: Jack, thank you for contacting SICA. Sorry your 'SICA website blog' post was missed when posting the update for the March 11th Singer Island residents' site plan meeting. For the latest update - Click Here  -

 

Julie Ahearn would like to thank ALL who came out for the 26th Annual Palm Beach Shores St. Patrick's Day Parade on Saturday, March 14, 2015.  Thank you Sponsors!

 
February 25th, Special Council Meeting:  Ocean Mall ... From Diane D. How about an update on the Ocean Mall? I tried to listen with interest to the special meeting but the sound quality was so poor that I couldn't make out any outcome or next steps.

What I gathered is that the eye soar will continue ... pathetic display of government and private not working together. An update by the SICA would be helpful.
 

Reply: SICA has requested an update and will share with residents once a response has been received. No word, yet ... Thank you for your patience.
