BREAKING: Supreme Court rejects Alabama’s congressional map with one majority-Black district
The Supreme Court rejected Alabama’s latest attempt to use a congressional map with only one majority-Black district, handing state Republicans a defeat for the second time in three months.
The justices’ decision preserves repeated lower court rulings that invalidated the new maps for not including a second majority-Black district in the state, which has seven congressional districts, given that more than a quarter of its population is Black. ... See MoreSee Less

ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT
Seminole Woods Rezoning Enabling Up to 850 Housing Units Causes Sharp Debate Before Palm Coast Council Approval
The Palm Coast City Council today approved on a pair of 4-1 votes land use changes that clear the way for up to 850 housing units on 375 acres on the west side of Seminole Woods Boulevard, three miles south of State Road 100. The proposal, for a project called Cascades, drew sharp opposition from City Council member Theresa Pontieri and an equally sharp defense from the developer, Jeff Douglas of Douglas Properties. The exchange drew in the mayor and other council members and reflects a recurring debate in Palm Coast over the speed, density and purpose of development ... See MoreSee Less

Found this on my phone was I was getting rid of pictures. Funny how Alfin appointed a chambers member to sit on the building planning committee. It should have been a conflict of interest then. Just another politician putting people in place to benefit his own person agenda.
This is all going to blow up in Alfin’s face when the federal interest rate for up in December.
Every resident of Palm Coast needs to go and watch this video of this meeting. It show Mayor Alfin’s true colors! How, we the residence, who have lived in Palm Coast, are so dismissive to him and our livelihoods don’t matter, And how his reasoning is growth. Pushing out residence, who have been here long before, he ever was here, the people , who voted him in . How he allowed a developer to attack council woman, Pontieri. He is allowing these developers to play the game of Smoke and mirrors with residents. That are flat out lying to us and giving them false information. We are not against growth. We just don’t want apartment in Seminole woods. We weren’t the only ones, fighting for their community, yesterday. He saw 7 people fighting for Seminole Woods, I guess he failed to realize that we represent every resident, who lives there. We have our own highly active community page of over 3,000 residents. Our house values don’t mean anything to him. Our livelihoods don’t mean anything to him. Only developers money does and this meeting proved it. Developers don’t pay his paycheck, we do! So please watch the meeting from yesterday and the commercial that is linked below. Here is commercial that is playing up north. People aren’t flocking here because Palm Coast is a great place to live. They are being sold a lie. Watch this commercial. www.facebook.com/657573741/posts/10160135629018742/?mibextid=r5uJeJ
Rezoning for more housing...🤔 I wonder if these people live anywhere near Seminole Woods. I bet NOT! Expanding for what reason? The roads the way they are can't handle more moving into the area! The street drainage is poor as well as inadequate marketing in the area to bring more people in! I never voted for these clowns so it is even more frustrating for those of us who don't put profit over people to watch what they are doing to this town!! More pickle ball & tennis courts is what the town needs? Their priorities are askew! Pathetic!
We were visiting Linda's Brother in the hospital today in Massachusetts. There was a beautiful 3yo little girl running around the waiting room, brightening everybody's spirit in a potentially grim environment. A young woman struck up a conversation about what a joy kids that age can be. It turned out her job is mentoring young single moms (16 & under) with children, of which there are many more than you would expect. So, I asked about housing problems & she explained to me that there is a 7 YEAR waiting list for housing, & most of the moms find refuge either with their parents or in group homes. A difficult road.
