Promises Kept, Progress Made


For the past four years, Mayor Levine Cava has gotten to work to advance our community’s priorities. She has accelerated the construction of much-needed affordable housing, moved forward the county’s SMART program for a robust public transit system, protected our precious natural environment, invested in our small and local businesses, and kept residents and law enforcement safe.

For two consecutive years, she cut tax rates to historic lows. She has made our county government more accessible to residents, prioritizing engagement and implementing the innovative No Wrong Door approach. Under her leadership, Miami-Dade County shares a bright future – a future that will continue to improve as she begins a second term working for all people of Miami-Dade.

 

Miami-Dade residents must be able to afford to live here – so we’re making historic investments to tackle this affordability crisis head-on.

Affordable Housing

As Miami-Dade weathers the frontline battle against the climate crisis, we must also be on the frontline of solutions.

Resilience & Climate Action

Miami-Dade has doubled down on successful programs that are preventing violence at home and in the community and addressing mental health needs – protecting all residents and visitors.

Public Safety

We’re building an economy that welcomes innovation, prepares our workforce for the future, supports small business, and empowers all people to thrive.

Economy

Our people are our greatest asset. Amid rising costs, we must ensure that our working families and older adults have the tools they need to succeed, from our youngest to oldest residents.

Social Services

Our world class seaport, airport, public infrastructure and transit system must be ready for Miami-Dade's continued growth and development.

Infrastructure

We’re making good on long-awaited promises and building the rails, buses, and roadways of tomorrow.

Public Transportation

From our blue heart, Biscayne Bay, to the water in our pipes and taps, we must ensure our water is protected, clean, safe, and accessible for all to enjoy.

Biscayne Bay & Water Resources

We're making county government more responsive, transparent, and focused on delivering better services to our residents, while being a good steward of public resources.
