Community The Battle for the Next Mayor

Boca Raton's Two Water Towers to be Demolished By: Michael Demyan

By Staff Reports Incumbent mayor Susan Haynie, who has been serving in public office since 2000, is seeking another three years as the city’s top elected official and she is challenged by Alfred Zucaro, a former West Palm Beach city commissioner. “My work on behalf of the residents of Boca Raton is not finished yet,” Haynie, 61, said. Voters will go to the polls March 14 to elect a mayor and two council members. The Boca Raton Tribune will hold a Candidate Forum on Friday, March 10, at 6:30 p.m. at the Wayne Barton Study Center. A general contractor who began working for the city in 1974, Haynie promises to push forward on her agenda of lower taxes, smart growth, and safer neighborhoods. Zucaro, 67, who moved to the city in 2009, says he wants “to bring back common sense to City Hall.” “We need a city government that makes good decisions for the resident of Boca Raton, not developers and special interests,” said Zucaro, who served eight years on the city commission and ran unsuccessfully as mayor in West Palm Beach. “Boca Raton is a special town, but right now City Hall isn’t working for us like it should,” he maintains. Zucaro founded BocaWatch in 2012 to “give residents a platform to stay informed and voice their concerns” about a major development boom in the city. He said his BocaWatch team successfully campaigned to preserve city-owned land along the Intracoastal Waterway for recreation, increasing the

opportunities for residents to enjoy unique green space. Except for BocaWatch, Zucaro has not had any other city of civic involvement since moving to town. He said after moving to the city of nearly 90,000, he had planned to live a quiet life with his wife, local philanthropist Yvonne Boice. But after seeing what he called “mismanagement” in City Hall, he had to act. “I could not stand by and watch what is going on at city hall any longer,” he said. “So, the questions of significance I faced were ‘If not now when; if not me who?” Has maintained that if Haynie is reelected, she will abandon her seat next year to run for she wins, will leave the mayor’s job early to run for County Commissioner Steven Abrams’s seat. Abrams, a former mayor of Boca Raton and State representative, term ends in 2018. Haynie, who has been mayor of Boca Raton since 2014, served on the City Council from 2000 to 2006, left because of term limit and returned in 2009. She served on the council until 2014. As mayor, Haynie said she has worked to make sure its residents receive the services and quality of life they deserve. She plans to continue her “impressive agenda.” “Fighting to make sure our neighborhoods stay safe and our city maintains the highest quality of life is something I’ve been doing for almost 20 years,” Haynie said. “It’s important to me that when I ask the voters for their support, they judge me on my record, not rhetoric.”

Boca Raton currently has two remaining water storage towers standing which have been a part of the landscape since 1958, but they will not be there much longer as they will soon be demolished. One of the steel towers is located on the corner of North Dixie Highway and Northeast 42nd Street, while the other is a little less than five miles down the road along Dixie, near Southeast 14th Street. Allstate Tower Inc. will be handling the process of tearing them down after a $154,000 deal was made with them last year. They will begin with the south tower before moving onto the one farther north. Those who live near or pass by the north tower during their commute could expect some road closures. Workers will begin the process on both of the 138 foot tall structures by cutting the tanks at the top before removing the separated portions with a crane. The demolition will have no effect on the city’s water since the giant structures have actually been left unused for over a decade. They were replaced by new water pumps which have made them no longer necessary. Back when they were still being used, the towers were able to carry 500 million gallons of clean water. The water

was pumped into the tank at the top where it rested until needed. When the city needed water, gravity was used to create natural water pressure and the water flowed back down to reach its destination. In order to have that high water pressure, the towers need to stand taller than the buildings receiving the water, otherwise there would not be enough pressure to reach floors at the top of tall buildings. This makes the towers a prime target for anyone wanting to go for a climb. Barbed wire fences surround both water towers, however there is still a chance someone could trespass and attempt to climb them, putting themselves in serious danger of falling. The city sent people out to survey the area on Tuesday, Feb. 21 and Allstate Tower Inc. was expected to start the following week, but they were actually able to begin a little earlier. “The workers have begun,” city communications manager Chrissy Gibson said. They are estimating the task of tearing down the towers will take about three weeks. Unlike most building demolitions, the dismantling of the towers will take some time since it will be taken apart rather than simply being destroyed. After that demolition is completed, there are currently no plans for the land, which will be left empty.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen

Your Involvement In City Elections Matters In just a fews weeks voters will head to the polls to select three of seven candidates to lead the city for the next two years. And while the turnout is projected to be low considering this being an off election year, I hope the current state of the country will be an incentive for more people to get involved. The outcome of this city council and mayoral races will mean a lot to our city. If you have never attended a council meeting to see what happens there, you should know that what goes on is the city’s business, which ultimately is your business. They decide on zoning regulations and tax structures that affect local businesses, which could potentially attract new businesses. They have the final say on how to address the gridlock on the roads you use every day, the utilities that you depend on, and the police

and fire departments that keep you safe. Just imagine the things that could go right or wrong each day or week that would truly impact your quality of life. Make a mental list. Think about your trash getting picked up on time or repairs to your street handled efficiently. Your city council determines whether certain types of businesses are allowed set up shop in the city. Now look at the big picture, the things that truly matter on a year-in, year-out basis. Are you satisfied with the development downtown? Can we expect to get a relief in the traffic woes anytime soon? Are city taxes at an acceptable rate, are those tax dollars being spent efficiently? How is the local economy doing? Do you feel safe on the streets? Here is what you need to know: The people who have the biggest impact on those things — city council

members and school boards — are up for election today, and voter turnout will be very low. I recently sat in on the candidates’ interviews with the Boca Raton Tribune and every candidate we interviewed said they want to be around the decision-making table because local government is the most important form of government. To that, I concur with Tip O’Neil, the former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, who once said, “All politics is local!” Boca is a safe place to live and work, the city is in good fiscal health, and while there are no hot button issues on the ballot this year, much is at stake. The issues remain the same as previous years: growth, traffic, and believe it or not, how to address the overcrowding issues at Calusa Elementary School. All the candidates offer

suggestions on how to cure the abscess, which range from reassigning students to neighboring schools (a band aid approach) to building a new school. For the most part, all the candidates are satisfied with the level or quality of public safety service in the city and although - depending on who you ask - the police department is at least 20 officers short, service has not been compromised. The Boca Raton Tribune does not endorse candidates. We however will hold a Mayoral Forum one Friday, March 10 at 6:30 p.m. at the Wayne Barton Study Center, 269 NE 14th St, Boca Raton. We urge our readers to follow the discussion and inform themselves about the candidates and issues that animate this election. Local elections may not flood your social media channels, but they do matter.

POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

The Urge to Contradict! Humans are social creatures, and all have the opportunity of personal interactions, of communicating ideas and values, of sharing their own selves, besides providing information beneficial to those with whom a dialogue is held. In the decade of he 1960’s, while in graduate school, I read an impressive line form two scholars, which stuck with me ever since. They had said that “communication is the matrix in which all human activities are embedded.” After all, persons communicate with much more than just a mere exchange of words. Attitudes and ways of responding, of asking questions, of acting and reacting to a variety of situations, are among the many ways communication

occurs, or it becomes mere manipulation – adding more hindrances to clear understanding rather than opening the way for genuine dialogues. Throughout my entire life one of the most disgusting occurrences in the midst of personal interactions, is the tendency of several to contradict what the other is seeking to affirm. Even when a specific question is asked, if the answer heard does not satisfy, the one receiving the reply quickly proceeds to negate what was said, and make no effort to affirm the response, regardless of its truthfulness! If the person knows better, why, then, to ask a question whose answer will be contradicted? When such occurrence is frequent with an individual, the clear idea is that a question

is asked, not on account of a genuine desire to have an answer, of learning a new viewpoint. Rather, the inquiry is from the outset intended to be a platform for arguing. Such are the persons who say “No” to everything they hear, to any answer given to them, even if what they later formulate as the correct understanding of the issue in question, corresponds exactly to what the other person had stated. The insane choice of his/her own words, is to appear as if true meaning could exist only if certain terms were employed, and not their equivalents. There’s no more annoying barrier to continued communication than such deplorable attitude! When persons converse, by engaging in a discussion, the goal should

not be for one to win and the other to lose. The primary objective must always be in finding facts, establishing a truth, understanding that verity more clearly, and living in accordance with that affirmation. In any conversation, its participants have every right to disagree with something stated. Even contradicting some statement can be proper and helpful. What is not desirable is to talk with someone only to provide a thrill to self in contradicting the other, not to confirm a truth, but for the mere paranoid enjoyment of someone who thinks to be the owner of truth, and the only genuine interpreter of reality!

Years ago, when my wife and I were in the photofinishing business, I received a letter from a high-ranking official at Eastman Kodak. I was a little nervous that Kodak might cancel our account, since we were very small for such a large company. Even though we bought a couple thousand dollars in film, chemicals and paper each month, that was still a very meager amount by Fortune 500 standards. I was surprised when I opened the letter because it was the opposite of what I expected. It was a letter of commendation, thanking us for paying our bills on time. In the 15-20 years we had been doing business with The Eastman Kodak Company, we had never missed a discount or were even one day late in paying our bill. That level of integrity deserved a personal letter from a vice president of the company. I was pleased with myself, but even more impressed that someone at Kodak would recognize our financial reliability and take the time to write a letter. This came to mind recently as my wife and I were leading a “Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University” class in our home. I have not always been as faithful in paying my bills on time as I was years ago, but in recent months have made a renewed commitment to paying our bills before their due dates. All business is built on relationships. People like to do business with people they like, including those who are prompt in meeting their obligations. Having to send “Past Due” notices can quickly sour relationships, and people who are slow to pay soon run out of suppliers. For those wanting to serve as “marketplace ambassadors” for Jesus Christ, as described in 2 Corinthians 5:20, such

diligences provides an unspoken witness to the character of the God we follow by faith. Here are some related principles the Bible gives to us: Faithfulness in obligations, even small ones, qualifies for greater responsibilities. We often must demonstrate we can be relied upon in small matters before we can be entrusted with greater things. “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own? “(Luke 16:10-12). Paying bills on time provides financial freedom. Prompt payment of obligations minimizes the accumulation of interest, and can pave the way to gain the trust of our suppliers as our companies grow and our need for resources increases. “The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender” (Proverbs 22:7) Prompt payment will enable us to stand out in the crowd. In an environment when it is so common for businesses to wait until the last possible moment to pay bills, a commitment to pay promptly speaks a lot to the integrity of the organization and its people, whether owners, top executives or employees. “Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear–not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. All you need to say is a simple ‘Yes’ or ‘No.’ Otherwise you will be condemned“ (James 5:12). Heizer Media Group

This week my travels took me to the beautiful Temple Solel in Hollywood, Fl. where a black tie fundraiser gala was held to support the Miami Heart Transplant Inst. A big thank you to Sandi Solomon our hostess for the evening to this very worthy event. Food was great, a great show with two comedian’s and a singer and a fabulous auction. I purchased two artworks and a gold box and tray to support this charity.

A very lovely evening at the fundraiser for Alzheimer’s Association’s fashion show and luncheon which will take place on March 10th at the Boca West Country Club was hosted by Pam Polani at Sklar’s Furnishings on Federal Highway. Two awards were given out to the police and fire rescue workers and these fine gentlemen will be in the fashion show luncheon on March 10th.

Is there anything sadder than being stag at a wedding reception? That is the plight of Anna Kendrick in the very funny wedding comedy “Table 19.” Kendrick is a woman of many talents and she shows off most of them as Eloise McGarry, a woman who was supposed to be Maid of Honor with Best Man Teddy Miller (Wyatt Russell) only to be dumped at the last minute by Teddy, who has found a new babe to take Eloise’s place in the wedding procession. Instead of skulking away in defeat, Eloise defiantly accepts the invitation to the very expensive and elaborate wedding on an island. After all, the bride, Francie Miller, is Eloise’s oldest friend. The table numbers descend in relation to the importance of the guests, starting at No. 1 for the bride and groom. Table 19 is at the bottom, for “random guests.” So instead of being at Table 3 with Teddy, Eloise is grouped with strangers, and an odd lot it is. There is Bina Kepp (Lisa Kudrow) and her husband Jerry (Craig Robinson), who have only a

distant relationship with the bride. Renzo Eckberg (Tony Revolori) is a young pipsqueak dominated by the mother, who thinks his prospects of picking up an actual girl are better at a wedding reception than the junior prom. The person with the closest relationship with the bride is Jo Flanagan (Ruth Squibb), who was once her nanny. Oddest of all is Walter Thimple (British actor Stephen Merchant) who is a nephew of the groom’s father, who despises him. Merchant is a tall, gangling man with thick glasses who plays to great comic effect. As dinner approaches the characters drop their facades amidst many pratfalls and faux pas. Equally at home with comedy and drama, Kendrick plays both sides as woebegone Eloise. It is rewarding to see her given the lead in a major motion picture. She deserves it. As a veteran of countless weddings, mostly as a musician, I have seen just about every setup plot gag in real life, but I still laughed. I think you will too. Three stars

Local Band, Stellar Revival, Reunites to Open for Bon Jovi in Los Angeles By: Michael Demyan South Florida rock band Stellar Revival, with lead singer Rino Cerbone, who owns Pizza Time in Boca Raton, will be opening for Bon Jovi March 8 at The Forum in Los Angeles. Cerbone got a call from the band’s drummer, Andrew Koussevitzky, roughly a month and a half ago about a possible opportunity to perform. “I kind of did something without your permission,” Koussevitzky told Cerbone. “So Bon Jovi’s doing this thing where every city he goes to he has an act open up for him in that area.” Koussevitzky submitted a video of one of their songs with a photo. Cerbone was fine with it and the two shared a laugh, not knowing what was about to be in store for them. They spoke every day since then, but never really brought up the possibility of actually opening for Bon Jovi until several weeks later when Koussevitzky asked Cerbone if he remembered their discussion. They won. “It’s kind of serendipitous the way it happened because we always used to kind of hold a candle to Bon Jovi and how we kind of wanted to be like him in a lot of ways,” Cerbone said. “It’s been original members and they’ve been around for so long and it’s kind of cool that the stars have aligned and the timing was just right and that it happened in that way.” The band began in 2008 and three years later they signed a record deal with Capitol Records. Cerbone left the comfort of his restaurant and traveled with the rest of the band to Canada to record their debut album. Some unfortunate circumstances started to arise and the release of the album, “Love, Lust, and Bad Company,” was pushed back and ultimately shelved after Universal Music Group completed the purchase of Capitol Records at the end of 2012. The band did find some success with their first single “The Crazy Ones” however, which was used as the official theme song for the WWE Elimination Chamber in 2013. It was also featured in a television spot for “The Expendables 2.” Dan Uricoli, who is no longer with the band, decided to release the album on his own in 2015, but it has not gotten much attention so far. Cerbone is looking toward re-releasing it or doing a double album release in the future.

March 3 - March 9, 2017

During their brief time apart, which they like to call an “extended vacation,” the band, which now consists of Cerbone, Koussevitzky, Steve Morgan, Ryan Spears and Mike Lowther, returned to their previous lives. For Cerbone, that meant returning to being a chef and restaurateur at Pizza Time in Boca Raton. “We’ve always been homelife kind of guys,” Cerbone said. “Home is where the heart is. It was normal for me. It wasn’t that we faced a failure or anything like that. We were all career guys before we had music. It was nice to have a bit of normalcy again and to kind of focus on ourselves as people.” They kept in contact though and made sure to leave the door open to get back into the music business. They ended up finding the perfect opportunity. “For us, this is the top of the mountain,” Koussevitzky said. “No other band on earth has inspired us more than Bon Jovi. My first concert was Bon Jovi’s ‘Keep the Faith Tour.’ I was nine years old and it changed my life. To be asked to share the stage with Jon and the boys at The Forum is absolutely surreal.” This upcoming performance is not their first brush with famous bands however, as they have toured with Theory of a Deadman, Pop Evil, Shinedown and Halestorm. In 2012, they also opened on the mainstage for Black Sabbath, Soundgarden and Megadeth at Download Festival in England. “We had an amazing experience with all the bands we toured with, but this one is a little bit more meaningful because of the rocky road that panned out from all that other stuff,” Cerbone said. “What makes this show special is that throughout all of this time and all of the BS, we were able to come together as a unit, just minus one original member, and jump right back on the same page with everything.” Koussevitzky submitting their video and photo for the contest might end up leading them back on the road to stardom as the band has gotten offers for more performances after they open for Bon Jovi on March 8. “If things keep on rolling this way I see a very bright future and the plan moving forward is to really make it conducive for all of us to execute the way we wanted to execute the first time and whether that’s independently or with the cooperation of a label who knows, but we are going to move forward and I think it’s going to be great,” Cerbone said.

The Boca Garden Club Fundraises for Good Cause Through Their "Treasures and Plant Sale"

By: Nikki Colonna

The Boca Raton Garden Club will feature their annual "Treasures and Plant Sale" on Friday, March 31 and Saturday, April 1. The event will offer many plant and gardening tools and accessories as well as "gently used treasures" ranging from clothing and jewelry to dishes and collectibles. In 1953, The Boca Raton Garden Club was born with the mindset and goal to improve the appearance of parks and landscaping of our city. Many members of the community share a similar passion for gardening and this club connects them in more ways than one. The local members work together to grow their gardens as well as their efforts to give back to the community through fundraisers and charity events. They expand their endeavors further and offer scholarship opportunities and junior gardening programs for local students. The annual event welcomes the community from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM to the beautiful gardens at their clubhouse. This is held with the main purpose of supporting

the Garden Club's numerous charities and scholarships offered. There is also a new addition to their even this year. “We are very excited to introduce a line of boutique clothing this year in a designated area of our clubhouse," said Patty Moum, Boca Raton Garden Club CoPresident. "We’re counting on this being a real hit with our discerning Boca shoppers!" As a program, the club works hand in hand with Garden Therapy for senior citizens at FAU's Memory and Wellness Center, Boca's Community Garden and Boy Scout Merit Badge projects. All donations and profits directly benefit the local charities and fund the scholarships that The Boca Raton Garden Club sponsors. They also support and send students and counselors to Camp Wekiva each year to promote the nature camp. "Although our main reason for the event is to sell beautiful plants, most of which have been grown and nurtured by our members, we make every effort to educate the buyers about the plants," added Carol Rice, Landscaping Chairperson. They hope to spread the message that love and respect for nature is important especially in the minds of our children because it leads to the protection and care of our environment in the future. This event hopes to inspire others to get more involved with the beautifying of Boca while enjoying the treasures and sales featured this year.

This Plan can have all of these assets to go directly from you, in your name alone, to an adult on the day you die with: no Will - no Living Trust - no Legal Fees - no Probate Court Involvement - free from Estate Creditor Calims and be recieved using a $5.00 death certificate. Wills and Trusts can both require $1,000s to $10,000 in these estate expenses, a lot of expensive and complex estate documents and take months or years of hassle to recieve these assets.

sports FAU Basketball Loses to UTEP

By: Michael Demyan The Florida Atlantic University Owls led heading into the second half at home Thursday night, but the visiting UTEP Miners dominated from then on to win 60-55. The game went back-and-forth between the two teams early as neither side could extend the lead to more than three until the Miners’ Kelvin Jones put them ahead by four with 10:47 remaining in the first half. The Owls later reclaimed the lead at 28-27 off of a dunk by Jailyn Ingram with 3:07 remaining. A three-pointer by the Miners’ Jake Flaggert ended up tying the game for the fifth time in the half at 30, but the Owls’ Justin Massey quickly responded with a three-pointer of his own to put them back on top. Jones followed up with a dunk to bring them back to within one point, but FAU was able to finish the half with the lead still intact. After briefly losing the lead when play resumed, the Owls’ Jeantal Cylla dunked to give them a 35-34 advantage. The next eight minutes, however turned into a rough stretch for FAU as

they only made one field goal and fell behind by five points. The Owls were desperately trying to get back on the board and after two straight missed threepoint attempts, Adonis Filer successfully made a three-pointer to creep closer at 42-40. The Miners showed no signs of letting up though as they still held onto the lead, which grew to seven points with just under four minutes remaining thanks to a three-pointer from Dominic Artis. The Owls again tried to get back into the game with the clock quickly winding down. While down by three with 19 seconds remaining, Gerdarius Troutman missed what could have been a game-tying three-pointer. “I thought we did a good job of not settling early and taking quick jumpers,” FAU head coach Michael Curry said. “We also had three (layup) opportunities in transition that we didn’t convert. In a 60-55 game, those are killers. ” When the Miners regained possession of the ball, Ingram fouled Flaggert. He made both of his free throws and extended their lead to 60-55, which would be the final score six seconds later. Filer led the Owls (9-17, 5-10 C-USA) with 15 points after coming off the bench while Ingram followed with 12 points of his own. Nick Rutherford also had nine assists, which gives him a total of 28 in the last four games.

Exciting Final Day at the SABR Championships By: Jack Rubin

On Saturday, February 25, all participants in the Soccer Association of Boca Raton (SABR) gathered at the Spanish River Athletic Complex for the championship day. Saturday was the culmination of a long season spanning from November to February. Kids from under five to eighteen years old all participate in SABR’s leagues. It is an association that brings the community together, as most kids who grew up in Boca likely played SABR at some point in their childhood. There are even U19 leagues for high school kids who want to continue playing the game they love. The opening of the fields at Spanish River Park brought a new beginning for SABR. Every parking lot was filled and people kept pouring in. All four fields were filled with excitement and competitive soccer on Saturday. In the boys U19 division, the second seeded Runners won the championship over first place Ultimate Sound and Video. Every competitor was giving their maximum effort in the heat. The defensive battle went into extra time where the Runners scored to end the game about four minutes in.

For girls U19, fourth seeded Camarda Builders went on an improbable run to win their division. They finished the regular season 14 points behind first seeded Sunflower Landscaping, but caught fire in the playoffs. In the semifinal, Camarda defeated Sunflower Landscaping 1-0 en route to another 1-0 victory over the Tri County Optical Kooks in the championship. The Kooks suffered a key injury to one of their strikers in the game and Camarda’s defense took care of the rest. Girls U15 was one of the the largest divisions with nine teams, but sixth place WJS Construction captured the trophy. Despite finishing 18 points back in the regular season, they upset #1, Epic Promos, by a score of 1-0 in the championship. WJS Construction won all three of their playoff games by one goal, including a first round victory in penalty kicks. Finally, Liverpool FC faced off against Welcome Funds in the final match of the boys U15 division. Both teams finished at least 20 points behind first place The Healthier Way. The one o’clock offensive showdown capped off championship Saturday. Excellent performances from all participants wrapped up the SABR season on Saturday.
