Greenacres Council Eyes 8.91-Acre Annexation, FY2027 Budget; Code Hearings Address Three Properties

Greenacres residents have several items to track this week, headlined by a City Council meeting today (Aug. 3) that could advance the annexation and rezoning of 8.91 acres on South Military Trail for high-density residential use.

Public comments were accepted before and after the regular agenda items. No other substantive business was listed. Minutes are not yet published, so the tentative millage rate set by council is not yet reflected in available records.

Regular agenda items included a facility license agreement with Junior Achievement of the Palm Beaches & Treasure Coast and a land purchase.
