About this listen

On this episode of The Velvet Funnel Podcast, we feature the Hidden Valley Guardians, an East Boca Raton community organization fighting to put safety before skyscrapers. While residents struggle with dropped 911 calls and poor cell service, city leaders are prioritizing billion-dollar downtown redevelopment plans.

We break down why reliable emergency communication is a basic public service, what Mayor Scott Singer’s newsletter says about the “Downtown Campus Opportunity,” and why critics believe Boca Raton’s priorities are dangerously out of balance.

When it comes to public safety, residents deserve more than glossy renderings and promises of “opportunity.” They deserve working cell service, reliable 911 access, and a voice in how their city grows.
