Palm Beach County Legislative Delegation Announces Schedule for Public Hearings and Workshops
Palm Beach County Commissioner Robert Weinroth reminds residents that each year, the Florida legislature holds a 60-day session with the primary purpose of developing and passing a state budget for the upcoming year.
While those sessions normally begin in March, in recent years the legislature has advanced the date of the session to January to allow members who are campaigning for re-election to be unencumbered by their legislative responsibilities.
The upcoming session will commence in January. As a result, committee meetings will begin in September,
In preparation for the session, the Palm Beach County Legislative delegation has announced its calendar for public hearing to allow residents an opportunity to present issues they would like to see addressed.
