North Lauderdale is a city of hard-working families, not a playground for political perks. My vision is to build a city where your tax dollars are treated with respect, where housing help is a guarantee rather than a lottery, and where City Hall is accountable to you, not the other way around. 1. Leading by Example: Fiscal Integrity First Recent decisions to triple official salaries have placed North Lauderdale far ahead...]]></description><link>https://www.willnae4mayor.com/post/my-vision-for-the-city</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ffb3967e54dfff8b0062ef</guid><pubDate>Sat, 09 May 2026 22:22:41 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6e570d_0e99de3e9409458e98eb357cdca894ee~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>willnaelacroix</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day One Actions / Final Actions]]></title><description><![CDATA[November 3, 2026: A Lifeline for Our City We have reached a defining moment. For nearly a decade, the current leadership has held the reins of North Lauderdale. We have given this Mayor enough time to deliver on the promises of a better, more affordable city. Instead, what have we seen? •         Over 800 of our neighbors are still waiting for basic home repairs while the city promotes "lottery" programs that help less than 1% of households. •          While residents struggle with rising...]]></description><link>https://www.willnae4mayor.com/post/day-one-actions-final-actions</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ffb2817e54dfff8b00610e</guid><pubDate>Sat, 09 May 2026 22:21:22 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6e570d_066160dc97ae424e81c4025effcc740c~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_941,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>willnaelacroix</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Home Mitigation Program - A Solution for All, or a "Lottery" for a Few?]]></title><description><![CDATA[We are seeing a lot of promotion for the Home Mitigation Program 2.0, but let's look at the actual numbers before we celebrate. The Real Impact: The Funding: $1.25 million sounds like a lot, but it’s split four ways across various city needs. The Math: At $20k–$25k per home, this program will likely help fewer than 60 families in a city of over 15,000 households. The Wait: There are already over 800 residents waiting for help from the previous program. For 95% of North Lauderdale, this isn't...]]></description><link>https://www.willnae4mayor.com/post/the-home-mitigation-program-a-solution-for-all-or-a-lottery-for-a-few</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ffb0be4f7ebdc9f6ae0f3a</guid><pubDate>Sat, 09 May 2026 22:15:38 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6e570d_0fe19e3feec7458e841864f399e27a3f~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_650,h_433,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>willnaelacroix</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The "People-First" (Downtown-Talk)]]></title><description><![CDATA[When we talk about the future of North Lauderdale, we’re talking about our neighborhoods, our businesses, and our homes. The current Mayor is pushing a 'downtown' plan that feels like it was designed in a boardroom, not in our living rooms. To him, some of our properties are just 'eyesores' that need to be cleared away for high density buildings.  But to me, those aren't eyesores; they are the foundations of families and the lifeblood of our local economy.
