2023 Broward County Mayor Fisher Delivers Acceptance Speech
A

B
As
a
county
commissioner,
we
all
know
Lamar
has
fought
for
the
issues
important
to
his
district,
as
well
as
to
the
residents
of
Broward
County,
but
there
are
many
qualities
that
would
make
a
great
Merit
that
Lamar
has
and
I
want
to.
The
words
I
believe
that
are
so
fitting
is
leadership,
professionalism,
class
and
a
person
who
defines
integrity.
B
A

So
mayor
Fisher
is
joined
again
at
the
podium
by
his
wife
Susan,
his
daughter
and
son-in-law
Patricia
and
Tom
McGrath,
his
son
and
daughter-in-law
Paul
and
Molly
Fisher,
and
for
this
swearing-in,
Lamar's
daughter,
his
favorite
daughter,
Patricia
Fisher
McGrath
is
going
to
administer
the
mayor.
Mayoral
oath
of
office.

Wow
today,
the
passing
of
the
mayor's
gavel
for
one
member
of
this
collegial
body
to
another
adds
a
new
Link
in
a
long,
unbroken
chain
of
tradition
and
the
leadership
of
Broward
County,
a
tradition
in
which
we
are
very
proud
of.
I
am
honored
and
humbled
to
be
your
new
Broward
County
mayor
for
2022
2023.
D
I
want
to
thank
my
district
14
and
all
of
Broward
County
6
000,
plus
employees
that
worked
so
hard
day
in
and
day
out,
I
have
seen
tremendous
efforts
of
all
of
our
employees
in
this
organization.
I
know.
Without
each
of
them
we
would
not
be
able
to
successfully
run
this
County
and,
lastly,
I
want
to
thank
my
family
for
the
unwaving
support.
D
Coming
from
one
of
the
largest
cities
in
Broward,
County
I
did
not
recognize
the
tremendous
efforts
that
comes
with
running
a
regional
system
like
we
do
here
in
Broward,
County
I
believe
Administration
staff
is
doing
an
amazing
job,
but
there
are
three
specific
areas
that
we
can
together
work
on
this
year,
so
I'm
calling
it
The,
Three
C's
plan,
communication,
collaboration
and
community
communication.
I
requested
Administration
who's
already
started
to
simultaneously
communicate
with
each
of
us
as
a
commission
on
any
major
issues
that
go
on
throughout
Broward
County.
D
So
in
turn
you
can
be
informed
if
you're
contacted
by
the
media
and
also
the
ability
to
notify
your
constituents
as
soon
as
possible
collaboration
having
served
a
municipal
level
and
now,
four
years
as
a
county.
Commissioner,
we
must
collaborate
with
all
31
municipalities
to
achieve
each
of
our
goals.
D
There
are
several
Regional
issues
that
are
intertwined
with
the
municipal
responsibilities,
including
Public
Safety,
the
transportation,
tax,
Solid
Waste,
housing,
affordability,
homeless
and
poverty,
climate
change,
providing
more
opportunities
for
our
small
businesses
and
much
more
from
the
municipal,
County
state
and
federal
governmental
bodies.
We
need
to
be
more
creative
and
responsive
to
maximize
each
and
every
opportunity
for
all
of
us.
D
No
more
red
tape.
Time
is
money
and
delays
create
less
projects
and
jobs.
Efficiency
is
critical
to
everyone
succeeding
community.
In
the
last
four
years,
I
have
been
able
to
build
incredible
relationships
with
my
nine
cities.
I
represented
District
Four
this
year,
I
will
visit
all
31
municipalities
to
ensure
open
lines
of
communication,
collaborate
on
Mutual
priorities
and
Bridge
together,
the
Gap
that
sometimes
exists
between
governmental
bodies
and
agencies.
D
Remember
and
I
say
this
remember
each
and
every
one
of
us
here
today
is
the
face
of
Broward
County.
It's
not
the
mayor.
The
vice
mayor.
We
all
are
the
face
of
Broward
County
and
we
are
a
team
t-e-a-m
which
stands
for
together.
Everyone
achieves
more
I
trust
that
you
will
embrace
the
three
C's
plan
for
this
year
and
again
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart.
