Over the past few weeks, we’ve all been reminded of the toll that spring break and other high impact periods take on our city. In light of recent events, Mayor Gelber recently laid out a 12 point plan to increase public safety in our Art Deco Cultural District and South Beach.
My top priority as your representative is to ensure the safety and well-being of every Miami Beach resident. I believe the plan does just that, and I fully support these efforts to move our city forward.
With these steps, we can keep our community safe, enhance Ocean Drive for residents, and improve our quality of life.
As your City Commissioner, I’ve been working hard to drive progress on all of these fronts, particularly when it comes to the pedestrianization of Ocean Drive. As Chair of the Land Use & Sustainability Committee, I fought to increase security, expand pedestrian access, improve sidewalk cafes and preserve the appeal of our Cultural District.
I look forward to collaborating with the Mayor and Commission to continue our efforts to promote a safe, thriving tourism environment and protect our residents. I hope you’ll join us as we work to make a difference for Miami Beach.
Thank you for your support.
