Greetings Hillcrest Residents,
Happy New Year! As we prepare to ring in 2025, residents in communities like Hillcrest are going to have an important role to play in making the next year one of unity and progress for our home. In divisive times for our nation, I have faith that our residents will handle the challenges of the coming year with civility and kindness. I hope we can set an example for other communities across the country. We need that leadership more than ever, because 2025 is shaping up to be an important year.
This year will see Broward County step up and take the next step on some of the most important issues that will resonate for years to come. This includes reforming our solid waste and recycling system, expanding our transit network, enhancing our economic engines, protecting our environment, and much more. We need a spirit of collective responsibility and eagerness to act. I know our community is prepared for the exciting prospects ahead.
With a big year comes some big news. I am proud to announce that at the November 19th Broward County Commission meeting, my fellow Commissioners selected me to be Mayor of Broward County for the next year. I am honored to take on this role, and am so excited to work with residents, businesses, civic organizations, and elected officials throughout Broward County to continue to make our home the best place to live, work, and play. As Mayor, I look forward to advancing critical projects like the Solid Waste Master Plan, Broward Commuter Rail, Broward County Resilience Study, and much more. These projects are too important for us to wait. Now is the time for Broward County to go all in. We can push our chips to the center of the table and come out with a winning hand.
  In addition to serving as Mayor, I will continue to be your Broward County Commissioner representing District Six, including Hillcrest. As always, you can contact me with a great idea or any questions or concerns you may have.
I know that 2025 is going to be a seismic year for our home. But I also know that for all of us, it is the quieter moments – the ones spent with family and friends, doing the things that we enjoy – that are most special. I hope all of my friends in Hillcrest get a chance to embrace these moments. I will see you in the new year – I cannot wait to work together!
