In Summary:
Apopka’s city administrator transition leaves unanswered questions, while planning commissioners consider open space standards, potential data centers, and a new child care facility. A fatal shooting brings renewed attention to youth gun violence, firearm access and prevention, as a community partnership helps families prepare for Thanksgiving. Looking ahead, the North Shore Birding Festival returns Dec. 3-7 with 60 trips benefiting a planned natural history museum.
