One only has to drive through Hallandale Beach to see what a failure the City Commission has been.
Bumper to bumper traffic at all hours of the day caused by people moving in and out of a canyon of high rises approved by lax commissioners.
Why has Hallandale Beach turned into one of South Florida’s biggest parking lots?
Commissioner Bill Julian was indiscreet enough to answer that question on Channel 10 this week: Developers are paying bribes.
When Commissioners Keith London and Michele Lazarow tried to discuss the Channel 10 report at Thursday’s commission meeting, they were removed and the session was shut down by Mayor Joy Cooper.
Julian’s story, inadvertently left on an answering machine, was that he was promised 300 campaign workers from a developer’s lawyer if he approved yet another big- sprawling project. He also thought he could get the developer to donate a van to a food bank he supported.
The only evidence Channel 10 apparently had: Julian’s word.
Obviously that wasn’t good enough for the Sun-Sentinel. The paper removed the story off its website after a few minutes.
