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 costs, the Mayor’s salary was tripled to $68,800, supplemented by a $9,600 car allowance.
• A city that once thrived on its "family-first" reputation is now falling behind our neighbors in transparency and fiscal responsibility
My "Day One" Promise:
I will bring these numbers back in line with the reality of our neighbors. By reducing the Mayor’s salary to the $35,000–$40,000 range and eliminating the unnecessary car allowance, we can save taxpayers over $40,000 annually from the Mayor’s office alone, funds that can immediately be redirected to youth programs and clearing the housing backlog.
A decade is enough. Come November 3, 2026, North Lauderdale cannot afford four more years of the same. Our city’s life line depends on a fundamental change in how we are governed.
My Commitment to You on Day One:
1. Stop the Self-Serving Pay: I will immediately move to reduce the Mayor’s salary and perks back to levels consistent with our neighboring Broward cities.Restore the Resident Voice:
2. I will implement the Live Grant Dashboard so you never have to wonder where your application stands again.
3. Invest in the Future: We will launch the Youth Leadership Council to ensure the next generation has the skills and the seat at the table they deserve.
North Lauderdale doesn't need another term of "Image Branding." We need a Mayor who remembers that they work for you.
On November 3, let’s choose a city that puts families and residents first once again.
