Mayor’s Message continued

Infrastructure is another priority in this year’s budget. We
plan to issue another $210 million in bonds to expand
our flood control and stormwater systems
in eight high-priority neighborhoods that have
experienced extreme flooding. Another $1.3 million is
earmarked to repair or replace city seawalls.

We will also undertake a citywide assessment of the
quality of our waterways to determine where to focus
future clean-up efforts. And, we have allocated $45
million to install high-tech water meters that will ensure
everyone’s water bill reflects actual use as accurately
as possible.
We are determined to improve the quality of life in our
city and ensure Fort Lauderdale continues to be one of
the best places there is to live and work.

Yours,
Dean Trantalis
Mayor
City of Fort Lauderdale
