Legal Showdown Over Trump Library Land: Miami residents sued Trump, Miami Dade College, and Florida officials, arguing Gov. DeSantis’s transfer of prime downtown waterfront land violates the U.S. Constitution’s ban on states giving financial benefits to a sitting president—especially as Trump’s plans hint at a hotel and other for-profit uses. State Budget Tech Frustration: Florida lawmakers say they’re running out of patience with PALM, the long-delayed overhaul meant to replace the state’s aging FLAIR system, even as they keep funding the modernization amid rising costs and shifting timelines. Local Governance Under Scrutiny: Daytona Beach renewed City Manager Deric Feacher’s contract for three more years in a 4-3 vote despite an audit that flagged problems in how city funds were handled. Public Safety Upgrades: Wellington is moving ahead with a $3.4 million safety project on Greenbriar Boulevard, adding bike lanes, widening shoulders, and improving crossings. Gun Policy Pivot: Publix quietly reversed its open-carry approach, now asking only law enforcement openly carry firearms in its Florida stores.
