Fort Lauderdale City Commission · City Commission Regular Meeting on 2026-07-02 6:00 PM - Jul 02, 2026 · 2 Jul 2026 meeting

You 100 percent, you know, I watch you balance this position as a wife, as a mother with young ones.

And you were there when sometime we were not there.

So I want to thank you for that.

But for my documented statement that I have here.

I have, it is my view that manager Williams elevated Fort Lauderdale at a higher level of business, the next level of business, more professional, more transparent, and with more respect.

I felt it in the room.

I saw it through our neighbors and I saw it on many occasions from her elevation and her experience.

I want to share some, her,

some of her highlights of what she did bring to our city.

In regards to labor and stability, public safety and investment, she led negotiations that has brought the Fort Lauderdale Professional Firefighters, IAFL Local 765, into a contract that would be eradicated, something that we hadn't seen in this city for a period of time, and they're prepared to take that

negotiation for their contract before their body.

Also, I saw her streamline public safety overtime that was by partnering with our Fort Lauderdale Police Department, along with the Office of Management of Budget, cutting overtime at a percent of 20% or equaling $1.2 million.

I'm proud to see

the recruitment and the graduation of the largest fire rescue class since 1999, which included 35 firefighters.

And that is an investment into our safety and the future of our safety.

In regards to neighborhood enhancement, I appreciate the implementation of enhancement for our preparation for hurricane season.

Before Ms.

Williams got here, I had a conversation and said it several times about being proactive preparing for our hurricane season.

And with that, she came in and put into place an opportunity for our neighbors to receive pre-filled sandbags before the storm.

Right now, in the middle of our hurricane season, once a month, you're able to go and get those free sandbags.
