In 2025, we set out to provide the facts about the Downtown Campus Project. The results spoke for themselves: 75% of the electorate stood against it.
That victory proved one thing: the community's voice is often missing from the decision-making process. Today, we face a familiar challenge. Our new City Council is moving forward with plans for our city's future and the way they decide to approach will determine the outcome.
We’re back to ensure the "election dust" doesn't settle into complacency. We are focusing on City Hall – the discussions, the decisions, and the long-term impact on our residents. Our goal is simple: keep you informed, keep you thinking, and keep our leaders accountable.

The most critical decision facing us today is how the City Council addresses our aging public infrastructure while defining a long-term vision for Boca Raton.
Read our first News Flashes of 2026 for an in-depth look at these issues.
We are committed to keeping the facts flowing. You can continue to expect our regular News Flashes and, due to popular demand, our comics are here to stay, now known as Boca Bites!
We are also excited to introduce a new voice: Burrowing Owl. This local watcher will be popping up to ask the tough, "ground-level" questions that need to be asked about decisions for our city’s future.
