As city attorney, I helped create an aggressive development to redefine Miami Beach as a community. This program was coordinated as a team approach with the city administration and commission to achieve redevelopment of Miami Beach as a tax base enhancement. Notable achievements include the city-sponsored initiative to redevelop Lincoln Road into one of the United State’s most successful retail venues and securing two convention center hotels through public-private ventures. I created a team approach to successfully overturn a $28-million judgment that had been lodged against the City of Miami Beach and potentially threatened the city with bankruptcy. I successfully settled several labor discrimination cases. Administratively, I reduced risk management and use of outside counsel.
