Excited that the item to open the Miami Center for Mental Health and Recovery is finally heading to the BCC. It's the plan I've championed for years, including independent Jackson Health reviews, BHAB oversight, and protections for core County services. Congrats #JudgeLeifman

Miami-Dade @MayorDaniella on the Seaquarium news today. Looks like the park could close by November
The Dolphin Company has announced a new agreement with Terra Group to assume the lease of the Miami Seaquarium, opening a new chapter for this iconic location, the animals in its care, and the people who work and visit there every day. The deal awaits court and Board approval.

As some commissioners push to cut county travel expense, @CommishRR Regalado says discussion should include International Trade Consortium, which funds commissioner travel abroad… Didn’t seem to go anywhere on the dais

Compromise proposed on helicopter funding. @MayorDaniella says over 2 years she’ll shift full cost of program back countywide property tax, from Fire Rescue property tax — where most of the costs are paid. Used to be CW tax paid all of it. Credits @CommishRR Regalado for deal

“Even when Manolo was mad at you, you couldn’t be mad at him” @CommishRR Regalado says of the late Miami Commish Manolo Reyes. Said he was good at bringing potential solutions when complaining about a problem. He wasn’t “Commissioner No.”

Good figures here on spending growth in the general fund in Miami-Dade (and payroll). @CommishRR said staff reductions are coming as county tries to balance its 2026 budget.

In honor of Autism Awareness Day, I joined @CommishRR and other elected officials to announce Neuro-Inclusive County Services Days - a step toward greater accessibility and inclusion. We remain committed to the safety of our neurodiverse residents by continuing to enroll families in the Occupant with Autism Program. This initiative alerts emergency responders when a person with autism is present in a home or vehicle, ensuring interactions are handled with care and understanding. #WorldAutismAwarenessDay
