From Voting to Bulldoze Memorial Park to “Preserving it Forever”: Marc Wigder’s Political Ploy
Marc Wigder has been a consistent and unwavering "yes" vote on the government campus project, including the primary plan of the first 9 months of the year that involved bulldozing Memorial Park and privatizing it. In a recent Sun Sentinel article displaying a photo of the plan where Memorial Park was still set to be bulldozed and privatized, Marc Wigder doubled down on his support.
The title of Wigder’s article was “Government campus redevelopment is the right investment for Boca” and he wrote about his continued support to move the plan forward. “Saying no is not going to Save Boca,” he wrote and stated “Boca Raton’s civic dialogue should not be consumed by 30 acres.”
Despite always and consistently voting yes on the original plan that included bulldozing Memorial Park, Wigder, in the ultimate political ploy, recently presented an idea that he came up with to create a “Memorial Park Land Trust” to “preserve it forever.”
Marc Wigder doubled down on his support of the Terra/Frisbie plan in a recent Sun Sentinel article, that displayed a photo of an iteration where Memorial Park was still set to be bulldozed and privatized.
