Monday night’s Lake Placid Town Council meeting is expected to include several significant items as the newly seated council begins shaping priorities for the months ahead.
The council is expected to appoint a new council member to fill the vacancy created when Colleen Charles was sworn in as mayor following the April election. Two residents publicly expressed interest in the appointment ahead of the deadline for letters of interest: W. Patrick Heath and Ray Royce.
More information about both candidates will appear in Monday’s issue of Lake Placid Insider.
The agenda packet and formal agenda were not available at press time. However, during the council’s April 13 meeting, town officials stated several items were expected to return as agenda items in May, including:
- Pickleball court discussions and a proposed path forward
- Presentation of the finalized strategic plan by the Central Florida Regional Planning Council
- Selection of the town’s vice mayor
- A proposed YMCA agreement related to Lake June Park
- Further discussion and updates regarding the Gladiolas and Main Street properties
