Mayor’s Message

America at 954-923-5001, Oasis of Hope at
954-586-1283 and Debt Management Credit
Counseling at 866-724-3328.

One option that is frequently suggested to me
is simply beyond the city’s power. I often hear
that the city should impose rent control. The
laws in Florida are far different from places
like New York and basically rule this idea out
as option for serious consideration.
Please know that affordable housing is a
priority for myself and the rest of the City
Commission. We will continue to work as
hard as possible to keep Fort Lauderdale
a community welcoming to everyone. It’s a
tough task, but we are doing all we can to
make a positive impact locally on this
national crisis.

Yours,
Dean Trantalis
Mayor, City of Fort Lauderdale
