The Builders Association of South Florida’s (BSAF) political arm, BIPAC, is happy with the job Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava has done and wants her to stay on for four more years.
BIPAC endorsed her this week.
“Mayor Daniella Levine Cava has demonstrated unparalleled leadership in fostering responsible and visionary government,” BSAF and BIPAC President Truly Burton said in a statement.
“BIPAC is proud to endorse her re-election and support her continued efforts in driving innovative solutions and effective advocacy for the benefit of all Miami-Dade County residents.”
The nod from BIPAC follows two consecutive years of 1% property tax rate cuts in Miami-Dade and investments in affordable housing that will result in 32,000 new units being built, Levine Cava’s campaign said.
It also joins bipartisan endorsements from nearly 75% of Miami-Dade’s municipal Mayors, almost two-thirds of Vice Mayors in the county, more than 90 other current and former local leaders, and myriad union and advocacy organizations.
Levine Cava, whose campaign recently announced it had raised more than $5 million toward her re-election effort, said in a statement that she is “deeply honored” to gain the support of BIPAC members.
“Together, we have made significant strides in fostering economic growth and innovation while addressing the challenges facing our community,” she said. “There is still more work to be done, and I am committed to continuing our progress once re-elected, ensuring that every resident of Miami-Dade has access to greater opportunities and a better quality of life.”
