Boca Raton: News Briefs

Mizner Park to get pre-centennial refresh — Downtown Boca Raton’s Mizner Park will be spruced up as the city prepares to celebrate its 100th birthday.

The City Council on Dec. 10 approved spending $800,000 to refresh the parts of Mizner Park that the city is responsible for maintaining.

The enhancements include gazebo restoration and painting; repairing the fountains; painting the benches, light poles, bike racks and traffic sign posts; additional landscaping and sod; more pavers for pedestrian walkways; and electrical and irrigation upgrades.

Centennial events will be held throughout the year, but the official birthday party will take place on May 24.
