he City Commission of Lake Worth Beach adopted a resolution to become a sanctuary city for LGBTQIA+ individuals and their families during Tuesday night’s meeting.

The resolution passed unanimously led by Lake Worth Beach Mayor Betty Resch.

“The City of Lake Worth Beach continues to welcome diversity and encourages that all individuals in the City contribute to the quality of our lives and should be treated fairly, with respect and dignity, and with full human rights,” the report justifying the resolution reads.

“Due to the extensive state and local legislatures who have already introduced over 600 hateful laws targeting the LGBTQIA+ community the City strives to continue to honor a movement that has grown stronger, more vibrant, and more inclusive with each passing year,” the report added.
