📰 News we're reading
1. Diocesan assignments — May 29, 2026 (thefloridacatholic.org) — Several Catholic clergy assignments will directly affect parish life in North Palm Beach, including a new pastor at St. Paul of the Cross and continued leadership at St. Clare. These changes, effective as of May 29 and later dates, also shift responsibilities across nearby parishes in Palm Beach Gardens, Riviera Beach, Boynton Beach, and beyond, potentially reshaping worship and school chaplaincy connections for local families. 
2. Wayne Gretzky Sells South Florida Mansion for a Solid Profit (mansionglobal.com subscription) — A waterfront mansion in North Palm Beach just changed hands again, with hockey legend Wayne Gretzky selling the five-bedroom home he bought from golfer Dustin Johnson in 2022. The property fetched about $6.4 million, reflecting continued strong demand and rising prices for luxury waterfront real estate in the village.
3. Riviera Beach races to shore up northern Singer Island (wlrn.org) — Riviera Beach is fast-tracking an emergency dune project on northern Singer Island, which local officials say also helps shield nearby North Palm Beach from storm surge. With county support lagging, the city has hired engineers, set aside millions for sand placement, and is racing permitting deadlines ahead of hurricane season to protect condos, wildlife, and the mainland coast.
4. Smaller Palm Beach County towns will struggle under tax cuts, property appraiser warns (sun-sentinel.com) — North Palm Beach is singled out as one of several smaller “bedroom communities” that could struggle if Florida voters approve a major new homestead property tax exemption this November. Palm Beach County’s property appraiser and commissioners warn the change could strip hundreds of millions from local budgets, threatening services like parks, libraries, and beach safety across the county.
