What's Going On With Coral Gables Commission? | Vince Lago
from A Day in Miami Show · host A Day in Miami
Today we had the pleasure of hosting our Mayor of the City Beautiful - Vince Lago. Vince was elected Mayor of the City of Coral Gables in April 2021 and is also the youngest elected in the city’s history to hold this office. We talked about the emphasis on transparency and his Friday Office Hours, what issues the residents are usually struggling with, why we need so many firefighters, recent controversy of firing the city manager, getting blocked from lowering taxes, and he told us what is going on in the current City Commission.
