I am humbled and honored to have been elected Mayor of Parkland. Congratulations to all of our city’s elected officials – Simeon Brier District 1, Jordan Isrow District 2, Ken Cutler District 3, and Bob Mayersohn District 4.
Thank you to all of the candidates who campaigned for a seat. It was a wonderful process as we had 10 candidates in total who offered fresh ideas and showed a tremendous passion for our City.
Local elections are sometimes overlooked for the larger races at the county, state, or national level. Local elections directly impact our everyday lives and it’s important to be engaged in the process.
Local officials directly impact our safety, property taxes, infrastructure, business, community services, and amenities. Sometimes we lose sight of the importance of our municipal elected officials, but it’s important to be knowledgeable and ask questions during the election process.
As residents, we have the unique opportunity to have direct and frequent dialogue with our local elected officials. It’s important to use those opportunities positively to become knowledgeable and off er insight.
At no other level can there be this direct impact on our everyday lives and this is why your involvement in the process is so important. There are many ways to get involved in the City of Parkland. We offer many Advisory Board positions for you to join.

I want to also take this opportunity to thank Stacy Kagan for her years of positive community service to the City of Parkland. And finally, congratulate Christine Hunschofsky on her election to the State Representative Seat 96.
We have been immensely blessed to have had Christine’s dedication, perseverance, and compassion to our great city and all of our residents. I am committed to holding this same level of standard and am grateful to Christine for setting the bar so high.
I am always available to chat and I look forward to your thoughts and insight.
