\u00a0I love Fort Lauderdale, I\u2019ve made great friends and have had amazing experiences here.\u00a0 I\u2019ve also seen the results of poor public policy and a \u201cgrowth at all costs\u201d attitude.\u00a0 Growth is good when it is managed, planned for, with adequate public investment to ensure we grow our quality of life.\u00a0 Four years ago I organized a group of concerned citizens to get involved, speak up, and drive change. <\/span><\/p>\n
