Initiatives
My philosophy of “leaving the world a little better than you found it” guides my mission of enriching the quality of life for everyone in District 2. I believe in fighting poverty, improving safety, safeguarding health, protecting the environment, and increasing the prosperity for anyone who lives or works in District 2’s communities– from West Grove north, Coconut Grove, Brickell, Downtown Miami, Edgewater, Morningside, Bayside, Belle Meade, and Shorecrest.
I am very passionate about growing our economy through Water Resource Management, including flood control, and the protection of our natural resources, most importantly our wetlands. Through my work as your Commissioner, I am also strongly committed to the revitalization of the waterfront core.
As Commissioner I have been at the forefront of leading initiatives which will expand Miami’s greening agenda, as well as its goals for urban revitalization and environmental sustainability, which will create a balance between the natural and built environments, encourage buildings of appropriate scale and engage residents and stakeholders in planning for and managing growth and change, which may include designing a pedestrian-friendly, transit-oriented commercial district, providing new homeownership opportunities for a range of income groups, exploring the possibilities of public/private partnerships, and leveraging the impact of arts and cultural institutions to create an attractive urban environment.
