Palm Beach Officials Mull Closing Mar-a-Lago Amid Heightened Security
• Zero HedgeAuthored by Samantha Flom via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),
Heightened security protocols at and around former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club have Palm Beach, Florida, officials contemplating its closure
The U.S. Secret Service ramped up its protection of the former president's estate, along with his other properties, after the July 13 attempt on his life.
One change was the closure of a portion of South Ocean Boulevard, which borders the club.
The closure, which began on July 20, is expected to last through to Election Day on Nov. 5 at the earliest, but officials are already receiving complaints.
"Our residents don't feel safe right now," Palm Beach Town Council member Julie Araskog said at the council's Aug. 13 meeting.
