Welcome to the Wilton Manors Gazette where we cover all things Wilton Manors and Oakland Park.
Tax time is stressful for a lot of Americans, especially when your accountant informs you, you owe money to the Internal Revenue Service. That’s what Jose Coss, a gay man and local accountant, was telling his clients. Except, allegedly, it wasn’t true. It was a scam.
Even with an annual budget of $52 million, every penny must be budgeted, and every penny must be accounted for. Essentially, every penny counts. Now the city is welcoming the appointment of a new person to keep track.
His voice is smooth, and his look is seductive. Longtime fans and new converts sway, smile and sing along when Stefano May takes the stage. Now he’s preparing for his show as part of the HarmonyWaves concert series.
It was a moment of celebration, reflection, and accomplishment in the city commission chamber on Feb. 13 when two outstanding members of the community were recognized as part of Black History Month.
Forget elections for president, senator, and others. The real action and intrigue happen at the local levels, and Wilton Manors is no exception. Races for two city commission seats and the mayor’s office are up this year, and candidates are announcing their plans.
The block has been rocked. Wilton Manors’ newest signature event took a bland, holiday weekend best known for fantastic sales on mattresses and turned it into a street party that brought the entire community together.
The long-discussed Wilton Hotel & Pool Club benefitted from a pair of important votes by the Planning & Zoning Board. At their Feb. 12 meeting, they unanimously approved rezoning the plot of land to commercial use (from Wilton Drive Arts & Entertainment District) and received site plan approval.
Crafts, cocktails, quilts and more. Every month during the season, hundreds walk Wilton Drive on the third Saturday of the month. From cool bracelets to stunning paintings to books, the best of local art is on display and on sale.
