The Movement

This campaign goes much further than a simple platform or campaign promises.

My main goals on the ground are inspiring, re-engaging, and empowering Davie residents and voters.

My top priority in my bid for mayor is restoring a voice of the residents.

Now, let’s break down the issues.

Infrastructure

Our roads should not be well-known for their deterioration and potholes nicknamed by both residents and visitors. We shouldn’t have bottleneck intersections in a “town.” Re-prioritizing our neglected roadways and flooding issues before allowing further any development is essential - being proactive, not reactive.

People Lead, Government Follows

Transparency (Communication and Development)

Residents have attended the council meetings and public comment for developments - the council approved the projects anyway. That’s not representation. As mayor, I will increase communication to our residents and put fourth a written response from the town before any vote.

Housing Affordability

What’s being built in Davie, isn’t for the people who live here. The working class; teachers, nurses, and students, can’t afford what’s going up. We cannot continue to allow our generational Davie families and farmers to be pushed out of their homes. As your mayor, I will tie CRA incentives to verified workforce housing commitments, not promises - requirements.

Integrity

Term Limits. Protecting our elected seats for the future of Davie is vital, as we’ve seen what it’s lead to without these protections. As your mayor, I will swiftly propose an amendment to our charter to include term limits for both the seat of mayor and our district council.

Preservation

We’ve been told time and time again, that the loss of our green spaces are outside of the control of the town, yet the public records show otherwise. As mayor, I will work to provide more protections and support for our open land, our quiet communities, our equestrian trails, and increase our park count; to keep us from becoming like every other city in South Florida and keep Davie, Davie.

Community

Davie has lost it’s sense of community and culture. Instead of increasing housing options solely, I will push forward for more efforts for our current residents and families; with initiatives such as opening our first Davie farmers market, dedicating green spaces for community gardens, and refreshing our Town events to make sure they’re what Davie residents want to attend.

Conservation

Enhancing agricultural productivity, our water quality, and managing our water effectively means addressing our current issues at hand. Every new project adds pavement - not capacity. We need to take a deeper look at our storm water assessment and I will publish the results publicly.

Taxes

Our millage rate hasn’t budged in over 5 years - plain and simple. Our property taxes are nearly 30% higher than the national median and almost 20% over the state median. Re-evaluating and addressing our budget with audits and independent accounting firms can allow us to save money for our current and future home owners while assuring we’re fiscally responsible.

Popular

The work, the concern, and the plans don’t stop on this page. From corner to corner, Davie has gone overlooked and has fallen to blatant disregard. There is not one part of our town that doesn’t need our full attention and thorough effort moving forward.
